mila kunis posted:can it be kicked up to a higher court? Yeah, the ruling being discussed was a lower court ruling that was affirmed by a regional court. There's a higher people's court (akin to a us circuit court) and from there it's their SCOTUS equivalent, the supreme people's court

Lol it's the only way to get an Asian president in the white House, I m in. China will probably still invade the "military base" Taiwan island though. stephenthinkpad has issued a correction as of 21:07 on Mar 4, 2021 |

It's probably hard to get the Chinese Americans to vote for Kamala Harris. Plus she is not Christian IIRC.

Yes she is, or at least she's a member of a Baptist church. You're probably thinking of Tulsi Gabbard, who is Hindu.

Paul Heer already did a video and wrote an article about "The Longer Telegram by Pompeo's anonymous goons". I think his opinion is about 50% identical to this new article.

sincx posted:https://twitter.com/ForeignPolicy/status/1367610854888333312 The Atlantic Council is having a normal one: ""The 'Longer Telegram' About China Is Fatally Misplaced" posted:This is not a strategy. It is a wish list. How any of this should be accomplished is never explained. Many of the items on this list are mutually contradictory: a more balanced budget but increased public investment, a pro-immigration policy platform but less partisan animosity. The need for trade-offs on any of this is not conceded. Instead, the report informs us, “each element of the above list needs to be viewed as a matter of national security rather than a normal part of the internal political divide.” As newly minted national security concerns, political leadership over immigration, trade, public investment, taxation, debt, and cultural division must be stripped from Congress and instead “driven from the White House.”

i mean they are 100% correct. if america went full socialist right now and stopped spending all its money on foreign war and instead spent it on domestic infrastructure they might be able to beat china. america still has a lead on china, if it stops being a decaying empire and turns into an efficient planned economy than it would kick chinas rear end but that would require all the rich ancient ghouls to lose influence and power so it wont happen

I don't know if this theory has a name, but the idea is that "America has to have an enemy, having an common enemy is the only way to unify the fractional domestic politic". I have heard this low key mentioned by senators and scholars here and there, I don't know if there is a doctrine name for it. Anyway, I think a lot of people in Washington ("The Blob") believe it, that's why Biden is turning hard nose to Russia again - not because Biden see Russia as the main enemy, but he is keeping Russia in the second-string nemesis dog house just in case Washington need to have short term cooperation with China. stephenthinkpad has issued a correction as of 14:59 on Mar 5, 2021 |

Rutibex posted:fascism Yeah while there are many other charateristics of fascism the strengthening of the in-group against the enemy (either inside or outside the state) is a key point. The symbolism of the fasces is "strength through unity" after all.

stephenthinkpad posted:
The whole irony is that the Beltway by not seeing China as a threat or as controllable put themselves in a unworkable position because they couldn’t “pivot” between two enemies. The “longer telegram” for the most part follows this line of thinking. Also, they don’t get the Sino-Soviet split is long over and most of was due to the personalities involved and far less to essential material issues. China and Russia’s interests generally don’t impact each other greatly and they simply have more to gain from cooperation than otherwise. There is just little reason for China to side with the US at this point after it has mostly maximized is gains from exports. Obviously the US could be more competitive internally but a big part of the issue is simply how it’s economic system is structured. The US has been spending trillions on stimulus with very marginal gains. Both because of the pandemic (which we screwed up) but also simply only a portion gets to the actual population. How is that competitive? Ardennes has issued a correction as of 15:45 on Mar 5, 2021 |

The first appeal of a fascist or prematurely fascist movement is an appeal against the intruders.
