This is the pot calling the kettle black, but sure. It's correct.
- The “neither Washington nor Beijing” folk always try to draw equivalences even when Trump is tanking the world economy and China is the only one with the means and reason to take a stand. The truth is, China isn’t a bully, while the US absolutely is. It isn’t China with the hundreds of millitary bases worldwide, it is always China pushing for multilateralism.
  
  Is China perfect? Nope. Is it getting steadily better as the US is steadily getting worse? Undoubtedly. The fact is, Socialism works, and the genocidal settler-colony of the US Empire does everything it can to make people see the PRC as equal to its evil even with the most sophisticated propaganda networks on Earth.
The CPC's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson is now Mao Posting, too. I really don't see Trump winning this one, lol
- Unfathomable takes from this thread
  
  Its sad that ppl are going to have to write essays debunking this white-supremacist nonsense instead of being able to downvote and move on with their lives. I guess that's kinda twitter's goal, to drive engagement with ragebait.
  
  JFC I saw just a few of the garbage takes in the replies but this is some serious ancient aliens tier conspiracy shit, with eurocentric fascist characteristics 🤢
  
  what is this shit
- L-MAO
  
  Lmao, absolutely obliterated them with their own tools
- Trump got in way over his head here, the same way Biden managed to do with Russia. Except China is a far more important economy globally.
  
  For sure, though I'm not surprised the US Empire is trying to wiggle its way out of slow death by flailing miserably.
"Give bully a centimeter,he will take a kilometer."

I'm pretty sure China does metric units.
- To be fair, it's the Chinese Embassy to the US.
  
  Okay so they measure in meatballs then.
Banned from X for exercising their free speech in 3.. 2..
Both the US and China are bullies. So what's the point of this?

Edit: don't bother replying, I'm not buying what you're selling.

  Neither Washington nor Beijing ^{but actually Washington}
  
  They're both bullies. About 26 million people live in Taiwan and have faced political and military bullying from China for decades. And that's not even mentioning Hong Kong, Xinjiang or Tibet. China tries to play friendly because it wants to create a Pax Sinica to replace America. But at the same time is militarily threatening it's neighbours and claiming the territory of other countries as their own.
  
  Even if you make a choice for a lesser evil. It's still evil.
Pretty rich coming from China and their actions in the South China Sea.
- What actions would that be?
  
  I’ve had it with fuckin’ vagueposts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motte-and-bailey_fallacy

Don't they use centimeters and kilometers? I guess it doesn't hit the same..
