I could not agree more; on both counts, sadly. Unfortunately, our "elites" believe they stand to gain more by siding with them than by opposing them.Not disputing that.
I'm just saying that Red China deserves the title way more than Putinist Russia, which is more or less finished as a world power in all significant ways, but militarily. Sadly, I doubt the Chinese will come under nearly the kind of scrutiny they deserve. We'll come to regret that later, I fear.
True; but that's going to cause a lot of collateral damage when their stooges in the west realize that their patrons in China are no longer going to be able to afford to support them, and start panicking about their futures.China is about to be wrecked by its own internal problems hard.
Meh, I say do both; have to keep our spirits up somehow as everything comes crashing down, and schadenfreude will do in a pinch.One wonders whether to kick back and grab some popcorn, or to hunker down and prepare for the worst…
