Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Yuck. This doesn't even work if you're just a propagandized USian. Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Afghanistan, Taiwan, Former Soviet bloc countries like Yugoslavia, Latin America, South Africa, Yemen, Iraq, Iran, close nuclear calls, Israel, Reagan deindustrialization and financialization and the fact that the US was engaged in a literal "Cold War" and this is taught in American schools as a necessity to defend against a nation an entire ocean away from us.
There was no long peace, nazism was internationalized and wielded against the Soviets and now it has brought the world into the decadent stage of imperialism
Overall an interesting observation on China's growth and differing viewpoint on diplomacy but still reeks of neoliberalism which in a way makes it even more credible.
Articles like these are very useful as a window into the psyche of the kind of person that is responsible for maintaining US imperialism. They often have a good material analysis combined with some of the most idealist nonsense you've ever heard to justify being on the wrong side of the class struggle
Still worth saying all of the things you've said. I was regurgitating long peace crap like three years ago, a fully grown adult, and I already considered myself a communist at the time!!!!!!!!
