My proposition is that the hostility to Russia and China is Globalism it is the creation of a ‘rules based international order’ that they must comply with.

It is the creation of a new economic system Russia and China will be expected to follow.

Going Green is about coming up with a new model to hurt them and cement US economic dominance in the world.

Big words, big thoughts...

But, why not just let China and Russia have their way?

Better red than dead.

Heck i”m convinced China is completely BEHIND the globalism thing. They’re probably the ones who created it. They’re profiting off it like crazy. Trump saw this. China saw that Trump was in the way so they green lighted that he was the enemy and was to be crushed.

As far as I know China has refused to pay a Western Covid vaccine manufacturer $20/person to save Chinese lives.

China probably has Biden, McConnell, Pelosi, Feinstein and several others in their pockets so nothing is going to be done. Instead you’ll hear the MSM propagandizing about how we should buy more weapons from defence contractor companies for Ukraine.

The people of China are generally good.

The Chinese government under Xi sucks.

I remain perplexed about why the Chinese have, in effect, poked a sleeping giant.

The uproar over the balloon seems to be merely a catalyst that solidifies a growing awareness of Chinese belligerence that, strangely has been largely passively observed as the Chinese threaten the skies over Taiwan and in the artificial islands of the South China Sea. More recently, the Chinese Navy has been firing lasers at Philippine Coast Guard vessels. Chinese aggressiveness is become so blatant that even the Japanese, both constitutionally and culturally pacifist now, have taken to arming themselves.

Si is no doubt well familiar with the writings of Sun Tzu who articulates in, The Art of War, the advantage to be had in avoiding kinetic conflict when subtleties will gain the victory. Why have the Chinese abandoned a course of action that was destined to bring not just their near environment under their control but ultimately to bring America to fall like ripe fruit into their laps?

The Chinese had suborned half of Congress and, of course, the President of the United States. Since taking office, Biden has undercut American national security and advanced the Chinese threat at every opportunity.

No major American institution dared to cross the Chinese. Wall Street is investing our retirement funds according to the wishes of the Chinese Communist Party. Hollywood dares not release any film that is in any way critical of China. American media, apart from Fox, is for the most part subservient to China. Our supply chain is choked by China.

So pervasive is Chinese influence in America that the Chinese were on course to dominate us. There would be no need for the Chinese Marine Corps to storm the beaches of San Diego, the left-wing in America will so undermine our morale and our culture that those leftists in power will simply open the gates and invite the barbarians through.

We will be told that universal surveillance and compulsory use of digital currency with our telephones is now required and, besides, good for us. The takeover will come from within, we will owe nothing and we will be miserable.

Why have the Chinese alerted America to the gravest danger we have faced since the Cuban missile crisis?

We must abandon Nativism.

If not the evil axis of China-Russia-Iran will win.

According to globalist mouthpieces, tariffs on foreign goods are the most terrible thing ever invented for consumers, but running around the globe implementing “sanction dynamite” on those same consumers is just fine.

It seems like hypocrisy but I’m sure they’ll have some well reasoned responses.(Sarcasm)

Tariffs are effective and all of our founding fathers knew this.

Poorly written article ignoring the best weapon to use against globalism - tariffs.

Fail in every way.

********

Some of the founders gave a shit about the industrial/ manufacturing potential of our country, others wanted to import everything from England.

Our current political and business policies are to send every producer to Asia while turning environmental lawyer lunatics loose on domestic producers.

“It is a situation that can’t be maintained.”

Most of our founding fathers made fortunes off of agriculture and still they were to a man on board with import tariffs. Amazing vision these guys had.
