I read the article on Western Media and China.
My reaction to it at a gut level was that the author sounded just like the commies after Trump was elected as they lamented and fretted over the Russians stealing the election.
Just be aware, most of the institutional right (from Heritage, to NRO and others) now seem to be shifting to a new essential enemy. And while I tend to agree, I do not believe it because they said so.
Keep your eyes and ears open and make your own decisions about whether, and who our enemies might be.
Our institutions have sullied themselves with the stench of lies. All of them.
