      I’m oll for the destruction / reorganisation of Western civilization but not at the hands of the Chinese because I don’t think they’ll do much to improve things.

        Father-in-law is a die-hard Libertarian. Loves Trump shutting down all the civilian bureaucracies. Can’t understand why college kids are so Woke and anti-Semetic. Thinks public school is a racket and should be abolished. Etc, etc.

        He visited Hong Kong, Beijing, and Huaibei recently. Absolutely flabbergasted. Could not understand how clean, safe, and well-managed these cities had become. His biggest complaint was how dismissive they were of tourism - you could get by in English, there was plenty of stuff to visit and do, but everything was very clearly tailored towards the convenience of the locals first and foremost.

        If that’s the future “the hands of the Chinese” have to offer, you’re going to have a very hard time convincing even the most far-right Americans to turn it down once its in easy reach. Just a few months ago, we saw the entire liberal government tossed to the wayside because of the price of eggs.
