Media-driven anti-China hysteria is not about Covid-19, nor about racism, nor even really about anti-communism. It is ultimately, like most things, about power. The US empire wants global hegemony and the rising China doesn& #39;t want to give it to them, so a confrontation is coming.
Drastic measures will need to be taken to halt China& #39;s rise, So consent for those steps must first be manufactured. The political/media class has been pouring its energy into doing this, and it will do so with greater and greater intensity going forward. https://twitter.com/caitoz/status/1247668630919102464?s=20">https://twitter.com/caitoz/st...
People who hate China& #39;s government might think it& #39;s because of humanitarian transgressions, because of the virus, because of communism etc, but generally it& #39;s really because very powerful manipulators have a vested interest in making westerners hate China. https://twitter.com/caitoz/status/1247668630919102464?s=20">https://twitter.com/caitoz/st...
Yes, and the US empire had the option to simply form a friendly relationship with China; many corporate interests with Chinese ties have been pushing for this. But ultimately power trumps all, even profit, and they& #39;re opting for the all-or-nothing gambit. https://twitter.com/PhilDurling100/status/1247672203841277953?s=20">https://twitter.com/PhilDurli...
They are USING racism to advance anti-China hysteria, in the same way they are using the virus and humanitarian concerns toward the same end. All of these things are real, and real concerns, but that& #39;s not what the propaganda campaign is ultimately ABOUT. https://twitter.com/MillerCrime/status/1247695645542137856?s=20">https://twitter.com/MillerCri...
