Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Not really sure I understand what some folks are saying in this thread. China meeting with the US is good. Deescalation is good. China's winning. The longer no war breaks out the more China's economy develops, the further China pulls away from the United States. Even if war is inevitable, more time only benefits the Chinese, and they're not going to poke the insane bear and risk the lives of billions. China does not want WWIII, we shouldn't either. All high level meetings between Chinese and US officials are something to celebrate because there's nothing the US can do to stop China. This is not a Chinese foreign policy L.
Whatever happens there i rather cannot imagine China backing up before the US irrational demands or the USA abandoning any of it.
China is negotiating from a position of strength and knows it. Question is whether the American side also knows this or if they will continue to delude themselves.
This is the correct take.
