    I’m saying you have no choice. It’s us or China. Cold hard facts. You’re fucked. We all are. You’re more fucked than you were before.

          No, you are. You’re American. The rest of the world is going to be fine without American bombs dropping all over it.

            You simply can’t see the big picture - emotion and myopathy have overridden your analytical capabilities. Not surprising.

            One day, you’ll think back in this exchange and realize how utterly fucked your thoughts were.

              Quite an interesting comment from someone defending US imperialism. Please tell us why we should fear China more than the US.

                Jesus. Look at history and compare all the people killed in mindless US wars vs all the people killed by China in the name of “progress”.

                I am not arguing that the US has it right. No one has it right - that is human frailty. Choose your hegemony, because you will have one.

                I’m done with this discussion.

                  How many people do you think China has killed vs the US? Because I’m pretty sure the US wins by that metric (as in the US killed more people).

                  Also it’s pretty ironic to comment on Chinese hegemony when USians literally learn in school that they’re the center of civilisation and the heroes in every war. Even in Europe we now have to learn that the US was our grand liberator from the nazis while it was actually the Russians who liberated most of Europe.

      China existing does not excuse any US crimes, and that’s what my comment was about after all.
