What is this on?

Thank you ^^

Thank you!

I’m not, but if that’s how you choose to read what I’m trying to explain that’s fine. Go in peace, and have a good night

The entire machine that churns to manufacture our consent for more unjust wars and proxy wars?

It’s not “whataboutism” to point out that China has transgressed on the same level as the US. It’s pointing out that a narrative is being crafted and pushed to justify imperial action against it

You can keep screaming about how these are the bad guys. Lots of people considered it unpatriotic to question the evidence of WMDs in Iraq. But how many violent engagements does our country have to engage in, with the public learning the true costs 10 years later before we begin to question

China is a threat to the US imperial project. It is pulling potential resources away from the US. And now, instead of speaking of various human rights abuses and fascist movements around the world, the US media and politicians focus on China

We saw the consequences of their machinations with the invasion of Iraq in the war on terror.

Before invading the news outlets and politicians were all constantly claiming WMDs and Saddam’s oppressive regime

I’m not going to make the claim that China is some perfect socialist utopia. It’s not. It did commit a human rights abuse, but one on level with the US’s treatment of migrants.

But neocons have been looking for the next big struggle since the fall of the USSR
