America is the sole reason why China survived WW2, and it was our involvement that led to the retaliatory attacks on Pearl Harbor. We then kept them under our protective wings and made them relevant on the world stage.
Now they steal everything and violate international laws with impunity.

Literally and figuratively biting the hands that feed them.

"half of America are insane chuds, and the other half are obsessed with scoring woke points and policing political correctness. China doesn't believe in any of that, so they get poo poo done, and the US has lost"

it's actually a little more insidious than that if you watch it, because Maher has all these little asides:

* you shouldn't care that I use racial slurs, the Chinese sure don't because they're too busy building cities
* environmental regulations suck - it takes decades to get anything done while China just makes a train in a week
* China is great because their kids are already back in school, while American kids are still taking Zoom calls (implying that we should OPEN ER UP)
* the progressive left is demanding that universities drop meritocratic gatekeeping in favor of racial equity and representation. I don't think CHINA does that, and that's part of why they're better than us
* China also doesn't entertain such silly notions as university courses for the humanities and sociology

that last bit was especially funny because Maher of course also backstops his argument with "we shouldn't become authoritarian genocidaires like the Chinese, but there's got to be a better way than our current Congressional gridlock"... but if you're not studying social sciences, how exactly are you going to prevent that from happening?

none of this makes any sense

also china does have ethnicity based affirmative action policies for university admissions and even as early as high school you can choose to focus on humanities studies

yeah it doesn't make any sense because Maher is racist: he takes a bunch of conservative, "anti-woke" talking points, and launders them through a lens of China being so much more successful than the US, because the Chinese polity and culture and governance is (allegedly) similarly conservative and anti-woke

and you only get to this point if you also believe that the Chinese are some kind of hive-minded automaton that are free of SJWs

It's amazing that all these old communists and socialists wanted after all these years was simply a cash payout of up to $1400 depending on how much a person earned the previous year. It seems they could have been pretty satisfied just asking for that a long time ago.

Many parts of the US have affirmative action, and the US (like most of the post-colonial West) has engaged in a bipartisan, long-running genocide action against indigenous groups for centuries. Setting aside the debate about the accuracy of the accusations against China, I don't think the one disproves the other.

I'm really confused about this one. Normally succ lords like Reid don't understand the first thing about the immortal science, but I suppose the only time you can get close to good takes from liberals is when they're trying to own conservatives...
