There is a thing I don't really understand about Dems and Bolton, even Edelman, and that is why is it such a thing to jump on about China and the Muslim Uyghurs, and why do we feel it is right to stick our noses into their Muslim troubles.
After Osama bin Laden and 9-11, and Israel's rabid genocidal Palestinians who devote the focus of their entire society to hate and murder, it appears to me that we are instancing a kind of preachy political correctness on China when they may well have the same kind of issues that terrorist Muslims create globally?
All we hear is how awful the Chinese are to the Uyghurs, but we never get in depth reporting on why that may be, we just use it to back up and foment more unreasoned hate towards China.
Perhaps it is reasonable, perhaps it is not, but it is very telling that we hear one exaggerated side of the story.
The same can be said of Xi who does have checks on his power, but not in the way we would recognize - and by the way, look at us at this point. China has like 4 times the population of the US and is about the same size. They are incredibly dynamic, and have grown rapidly and take care of their people from how it looks from here in the US. China has a huge Representative body, a parliament, that I don't know what they call, and they are very homogenous.
If I could I like to ask Bolton how this anti-China propaganda is not the US planning to meet the challenge ( i.e. not threat ) of China because China is on track to surpass us in education of their people and meeting their needs, while we exist in a completely different political space. We certainly are not doing as much or our citizens. Yes we can attract the smartest, richest people in the world to live and invest here beause we are so dynamic, but the result of that is a huge disparity in wealth and huge poverty.
What are we really fighting for? There is a similar story that can be framed for Russia as well. As an American I support my country, even if we are expansionist and hegemons, because all great powers do that. But at this point, with global warming and the immense waste of war it sure seems like we are all fighting in a burning house.
