I’ve been seeing a huge amount of anti-Chinese sentiment online, from obvious places like reddit, to even misinformed friends on social media falling victim to viral posts filled with misinformation.
What are we to make of this? Is this the slow march to war, by portraying them as pure evil, à la the fake story of Iraqi soldiers killing Kuwaiti babies to help get the public on board with our military response? It seems disadvantageous for the US and their allies to fight China, as we are incredibly reliant upon them economically and don’t stand to gain much from the conflict.
Are these the irrational decisions of a dying empire? Or is there something else at play?
Ah, that would make sense from my limited knowledge of that point in time. I saw on Luna Oi’s channel that Vietnam was tight with the USSR.
How is that channel? I saw a vid a bit back and clicked on it, but got distracted before she said much and totally forgot about it
