hina told the United States to reflect on the words of Russia's Vladimir Putin on Thursday and stop peddling American ideology and values to the rest of the world following the debacle of Afghanistan.

The Russian president said that U.S. attempts to "civilize" Afghan citizens by introducing American norms and standards into their politics and way of life ended in "sheer tragedies, sheer losses" for both sides and achieved a "zero result, if not negative."

"President Putin's view should provoke some reflection in the U.S.," China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said ...

..He repeated a recently popular line out of Beijing, suggesting the West's description of democracy wasn't the only working definition in the world. Chinese leaders have sought to promote the country's own version of democracy and human rights as an alternative....

The “Blue Screen of Death”.

Just hold that power button down until it’s gone.

Inspired by your response BTW. :^)

Honestly, we are confused right now. The French may be having issues with their Muslim population. But they are not apologizing for being French. They are telling their Muslims to knock it off with the burqa crap. They can wear that in the Middle East but not in France. But here in the good 'ole USA, we are being assimilated by other cultures.

America may cease to exist in a couple of decades or a century or two. But if we continue to have leaders like Joe Biden and Barack Obama, it won't be long at all.

What exactly are our “values” these days, anyway?

"Ten percent for the Big Guy." Not snark, but the sad truth - since 0bama the foreign policy of the United States has been for sale, and the technology has been for sale since Clinton.

What can I say? Love of country is now cursed as White Supremacy, love of God and family as bigotry, heterosexuality as hatred, and celebrated as the new normal are censorship, corruption, election fraud, theft, racism, and authoritarianism. The country doesn't need lectures from the Chinese of all people on its values, it's doing just fine suppressing them all by itself.

Actual American values haven’t been on display for many many decades. The first three years of President Trump is the best example of actual American values.

today, what’s promoted as American values is a freak show straight out of an LSD laden burning man event

[newnhdad]

yup, most countries in the world don’t want this type of hate shoved down their throats. Most American’s don’t want it either.

When it comes to Afghanistan there is a refusal not only by the media and the so called (in name only) democratic party but by Christian leaders like Pope Francis to approach exposing the Taliban for it being a theocracy following the sharia creed which denies free will and ridicule their claim they are authorized by Our Creator to execute non believers. and instead brags about working with them.
If that exposure was explored and the emphasis was placed on Our Savior’s activities bringing in the New Covenant there would be more conversions.

Yes, if they’re talking about the gay flag, dumbed-down standards, insolent and rebellious kids, and sissy men.

[Jim Noble]

I don’t disagree with a single word.

The US Globohomo empire is headed for disaster, and it is going to take you, me, and our posterity along with it.

[riri]

first we've got Taliban telling us to get back to Afghanistan

All this "Taliban" activity is Afghanistan glows so bright it's almost radioactive.

Who are they trying to rile up with this orchestrated travesty? The boomers? They are the only one's left who care.

Gen X-checked out.

Millenials. Mini boomers but even they don't care.

The Zoomers- ha, don't make me laugh.

Our 100 million plus new neighbors and residents? They look at it as something happening to Americans-people outside their in group- who deserve it.
