- lejalv 6mo agoTime for a massive boycott to all US-American products? Or what else will stop the thugs?
- WarmWash 6mo agoBeing comfortable with China playing America's role.
- lejalv 6mo agoFor a change, yes
- tootie 6mo agoChina will be worse. Either Europe steps up or we just try living life without a hegemon.
- epolanski 6mo agoWhy do I have to keep believing China will be worse? It's not china mass survelling the planet, the US is. It's not china starting wars, kidnapping foreign leaders, it's the US. It's not china threatening their allies, not even going short of mentioning annexations, the US is.
- efreak 6mo agoChina does these things to their own citizens, so really only better for those out of range.
- wiseowise 6mo agoThat’s the whole point, though? US does it to everyone, including its citizens.
- efreak 6mo agoThe governments are both pretty terrible, but China has been far more violent to it's own citizens in recent times than the US has. The recent non-citizen hunts and unwise involvement in foreign affairs notwithstanding, the US doesn't (currently) have a policy of ethnic cleansing and violating human rights on a massive scale on its own lands.
- WarmWash 6mo agoTikTok might be the most successful global surveillance tool ever...
- Jensson 6mo agoNobody will stop USA as long as they fight evil regimes.
- wiseowise 6mo ago> as they fight *weak* evil regimes Fixed. US only has chutzpah to fight someone who can’t meaningfully fight back. If US was truly fighting evil regimes, it would go for Russia, China, NK and bunch of other autocrats.
- nojvek 6mo agoHaha. US ain’t got the balls to fight NK. They got nukes and US presidents take pictures with their supreme leader. Iran knows what’s on the other side once they have nukes. No one touches them.
- alsetmusic 6mo ago> Nobody will stop USA as long as they fight evil regimes. At what point will the USA fight the evil genociding Israeli state?
