With all due respect, if you think China’s goal is just “economic subjugation”, think again. Communism intends to spread atheism around the globe and crush all religion as much as the Islamists (themselves having adopted socialism) intend to do the same with Islam versus other religions and irreligions.
Agreed, but their FIRST and current and primary goal is to ‘merely’ destroy our economy; they can scoop up the low hanging fruit at their leisure.
I mean no one should *EVER* doubt that the Chinese consider themselves the only legitimate superpower, and the rest for us are mere barbarians; communist, emperor, fascist, all politics is just a means to their end of putting us barbarians in our rightful place.
