Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., on Wednesday gave an impassioned argument that the U.S. government should take back Chinese-owned farmland.

The Pennsylvania Democrat spoke during a broader hearing by the Senate Agriculture Committee on foreign ownership in U.S. agriculture and its impact on food security and national security.

"I hope many of our colleagues agree, the Chinese government and other U.S. adversaries should own zero, zero agricultural land in our country, I believe that," Fetterman said. "They're taking back our pandas.! We should take back all of their farmland."

Obama himself supported the military pivot to countering China, and while warranted, I think Fetterman's attitude is one that supported by much of the Left due part to the politically correct anti-Sino bias among many liberals (which, consistent with their perversion of the word "homophobia," could be called 'Sinophobia"), not in any way against Communism as a form of government which power the Left lusts for, but because Asians in generals represent competition against their voting base.

Chinese American voters are only slightly majority Democratic (56%, while Vietnamese American voters tilt to the GOP- 51% Republican, 42% Democratic). and Asian culture in general, with its emphasis upon being industrious and obedience to authority is not very susceptible to the victim-entitlement mentality, versus American black culture which the left mentally enslaved, with consent, largely decimating the black family.
