I’m really tired of the political class roping in entire nations in to conflict over things only rich and/or powerful people give a shit about. Most of the working and middle class just want to live their lives in peace without some game-theoretic geopolitical showdown happening at every turn in history. And this all over what? To say that our part of the map is bigger than yours? To say that we have access to these resources and they don’t? What’s the fucking point? We are all human and desperately need a better way of organizing our global society than stupid shit like this.
I kind of agree but also don’t
I mean in an optimal world, politics is just bullshit and we could skip those charades. But we don’t live there. I for one am actually glad he gets a bit more harsh. Acknowledging that China is an autocracy is important, and coming from a US president that’s a very good statement, but also making clear that randomly spying on another nation won’t be tolerated is important too. I don’t want it to escalate, but these clear cut words are important sometimes.
Maybe I’m swimming alone with that tho.
Xi Jing takes offense by being called what he is? Absolutely shocking.
