Don't forget anti-China
Ugh don't get me started on the Chinese with their darn kung fu
Monty Python sketch (yt)
Is that a thing?
It's the whole impetus behind the TikTok ban
Ah, yeah, that’s a fair criticism. Thanks.
It’s been a thing ever since Obama’s “pivot to asia”.
That sounds like the opposite. In the article they mention changing the policy in 2017. Is that what you mean?
Sure they changed it: they ramped the new cold war up even further.
Council on Foreign Relations » U.S.-China Relations
So, based on your source, it’s Trump policy rather than Obama policy?
Just as it was in the first cold war, it doesn’t matter which party is in the White House: the cold war marches on regardless. The deep state is real; it’s just not what what far-right wingnuts think it is.
Just trying to keep up with what message you’re trying to convey. First you said it started during the Obama administration, then you agreed it was later, during the trump administration.
I don’t have time to check even more sources you reference. Feel free to mention why your last source is relevant to our discussion and I might give it a glance. Or at least why it worth a read.
I didn’t agree that it started later than Obama, only that it continued on after him.
You’re right, and went back to read again and I totally misread the original article on Pivot to Asia as being more positive to china, which it wasn’t. I apologize for that, and thanks for still keeping up the conversation. I owe you to at least have a look at your last reference.
No worries. Cheers!
