Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday claimed that China is seeking to become the “dominant” world power and wants to replace the US-led “liberal” world order.
When asked by The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg if Russia or China is a bigger “threat” to the US, Blinken said that China has a “much greater ability certainly than Russia to try to shape what the international system looks like.”
Blinken’s comments reflect strategy documents that have been produced by the Biden administration that name China as the top threat, with Russia falling in second.
“I think they want a world order, but the world order that they seek is profoundly illiberal in nature; ours is liberal with a small ‘L.’ And that’s the fundamental difference,” Blinken said.
When asked what he thinks China wants, Blinken said, “I think that what it seeks is to be the dominant power in the world militarily, economically, diplomatically.”
While Blinken claims China seeks global hegemony like the US, the Biden administration’s China policy is focused on preventing Beijing from becoming the hegemon in Southeast Asia by increasing support for Taiwan and looking to challenge China in the South China Sea.
Off subject, but still ties in with the insane leaders in both Canada and USA:
“Nazigate: Canada’s top general won’t apologize for applauding Ukrainian Waffen-SS vet. As Canada’s top officials express embarrassment for honoring
a WWII Nazi collaborator in parliament, the leader of the country’s
military, Gen. Wayne Eyre, refuses to apologize for his standing
ovation. The Canadian military has trained Ukraine’s notorious neo-Nazi
Azov Battalion for years. https://thegrayzone.com/2023/09/28/nazigate-canadas-general-ukrainian-waffen-ss/
Canadian militaries are ready to fight for Nazism the same as other Anglo-Saxon militaries. Good Russian nukes is the only problem for them. Still they are hoping, Russia somehow will fail to use them.
Russia won’t need nukes… The world is uniting against NATO.
President of Columbia, Gustavo Petro Urrego. He speaks my language;
All the world needs Russian nukes. It serves as counterbalance for aggressive block NATO.
If these morons push Russia into a position that their Nations survival is threatened I believe Putin would rather fight then yield.
“DID NAZI THIS COMING!” –Grayzone! Then they came up with “NAZIGATE!” Best commentary of the year! (Sarcasm)
😂
In a world filled with so many problems that require each country’s participation, isn’t it time to look for viable solutions and agreements, most of which the world should be able agree on because it concerns each and everyone of us, as human beings,?… When you make a country a threat, the threat becomes a reality and eventually, that could lead to WAR. The world needs the spirit of co-operation, for all of our sakes. No single country has the right or the responsibility to determine a GLOBAL future. We need to act, for the world’s safety, as a global collective.
The US can be a leader but not a dictator to anyone or any country…
Donna; A most admirable thought.However the US has been dissenting from this premise since the end of World War II and working hard for World War III
I agree, nice sentiments but not going to happen. WW3 is more likely than the world governments coming to some kind of mutual understanding. Just not how human nature works. Believe it or not, the only thing that’s going to save this world is divine intervention.
“the only thing that’s going to save this world is divine intervention” or people who believe in God and follow the teaching.
That may save you or me individually but as far as the world, I believe the ‘Dark Side’ is in control.
The power of Dark Side is declining.
Whose god?
I’m Pagan, and my “god” is a Goddess.
Divine intervention ain’t workin’, Bill.
It’s humanity’s fault what’s been done to this planet, and we’re now paying the price, whether by climate change or possible nuclear war.
Mother Nature gave us a breathtakingly beautiful place on which to reside, and we’ve ruined it, probably beyond repair.
Yea, I agree.
The old army saying applies FUBAR.
Yep Wendell, F*cked Up Beyond All Repair.
Well because I am an Agnostic there is no saving available
I can understand how you feel.
By saving world, I think, we mean the saving of humankind. I am sure it is possible and very much probable scenario. The main danger is coming from humans themselves. If we overcome this problem, next danger is some kind of big meteorite, something like what hit the earth about 60 million years ago and killed dinosaurs. Humans have plenty of time to prepare for such an event. The earth-sun system will carry on as it is a couple of billion years more, it is almost eternity. Impossible to guess how far the science can progress in this time. Of course, there are some other dangers we can’t even guess about. Some people think, the artificial intellect is also dangerous etc. But at the moment, the humans, namely, US oligarchy and the oligarchy in general, is the greatest danger.
Wendell, that doesn’t mean you won’t enjoy a pleasant afterlife.
The spirit doesn’t die.
Well said, Donna.
The US vetoed Russia from joining NATO so what does that tell you ? . the fact is the American Establishment dosen`t want to treat any country as a equal they only want LACKEYS to do their bidding , i would have thought that was quite obvious to everyone.
War is exactly the outcome the neocons seek and are pursuing as we speak. But they will once again use the blood of the sons and daughters of their vassals as lubricant, as they are already doing in Eastern Europe.
So interesting. Just today, Moonofalabama ran a story about a new paper released by the China’s State Council that argues precisely the opposite of what our esteemed Mr Blinken states. The best quote is:
“There is no iron law that dictates that a rising power will inevitably seek hegemony. This assumption represents typical hegemonic thinking and is grounded in memories of catastrophic wars between hegemonic powers in the past. China has never accepted that once a country becomes strong enough, it will invariably seek hegemony. China understands the lesson of history – that hegemony preludes decline. We pursue development and revitalization through our own efforts, rather than invasion or expansion. And everything we do is for the purpose of providing a better life for our people, all the while creating more development opportunities for the entire world, not in order to supersede or subjugate others.”
Now, who knows what China will do when it’s the leading economic and military nation in the world, as they inevitably will over the next few decades. But they have certainly said they are interested in peace and trade and win-win. And their history as a nation has been that, even when they were by far the worlds most powerful nation. So let’s work for peace and getting along, shall we?
We can all agree with this idea but the US will never go along willingly.
You might want to look up what china did/ is doing to Tibet..
You may want to look up what a horrific theocracy Tibet was before China took it over …
But point taken. China has indeed acted imperially in its very close near-abroad … But certainly not like the western imperialism of the past 500 years, even when they could have.
Indeed – Peking liberated a few million Tibetese from slavery.
Is that different then Israel extermination the Palestinians or the US policy on immigrants down at the Texas border with people in cages separated from their children. There is a surplus of evil in the world and the US has more than its share.
Deganawida, you know that I love you. “You might want to look up what” CIA “did/is doing to Tibet.” Even Wikipedia knows about that. (Sarcasm) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_Tibetan_program
Try telling that to the morons in Washington and Wall Street. It just won’t fly to their greedy little minds. They would rather fight then cooperate and coexist.
Yes, although they won’t be doing the actual fighting. That would be the disposables and deplorables.
Intelligence and compassion usually result when your civilization is two thousand years old.
I would replace “liberal” with corporate fascism.
really? ‘corporate fascism’ seems to be more aligned with extreme right-wing capitalism to me
Six of one a half dozen of the other.
That all depends whether you mean European right-wing or American right-wing.
Jimmy Dore said all the spectrum of US politics shifted to the right–what used to be left is now on the right. But, he’s a comedian. So, what does he know? (Sarcasm)
When you view from a left leaning world, everyone is to your right.
that is what we have, extreme/brutal capitalism.
If push comes to shove in America and angry workers are in the streets in great numbers you will see the military and police violently putting down the marches and insurrections with great force.
Wendell, there are more of us than them!
That is true but they are better organized and have much superior armament
Jeff Goldberg from the guard’s job at a prison has established himself a great thinker and analyst.
How did he without any experince other than Israel is the best democracy world has ever seen?
Here comes the importance of networking and shutting the door in the faces of the real experts.
Who is this person you are speaking of? Why should not people from all walks of life be able to give their opinions? Should only you be able to speak? Are the Ukraine and Russia democracies?
Ukraine was a democracy until the US overthrew it.
And Putin, the Russian president, is elected and accountable to the Russian people and the Duma, the Russian parliament.
Did Bath party sympathizers get a chance to expose the fraudster Goldberg is?
US-led liberal order is such a world order where the national states are unable to control the international capitalist corporations. China is the main threat to such an order because Chinese state is strong and the business on Chinese territory is regulated by the state. US corporations invested a lot of money in China, they have their profit but they are working for China and ultimately for Chines state. US can’t do much to change that. If they start the same kind of sanctions against China as they did against Russia and remove all their business from China, the result will be the same as in Russia, Chinese business replaces American business, American corporations lose income but Chinese state will survive it easily. There are no peaceful ways to force the liberal capitalism order on China and Russia.
Who ever accused the US of using peaceful methods to enforce its version of proper world order?
It was peaceful and successful in many cases. Corrupted elites of many countries themselves welcomed such an order. It gave them opportunity to steal money and transfer it to western banks or invest it into any other assets all over the world where the private property is respected. Only recently The West abandon the policy of respect of the private property and started to rob Russian passport holders. Until 2022 private bank accounts of Russian passport holder were safe in The West. It looks, the reason why The West changed the rules is exactly the failure to enforce the liberal capitalist world order on such countries as Russia and China.
Thank you for responding so quickly. I appreciate your comments and can accept correction from one who knows much more then i do.Until rapacious Capitalism is overcome by something that works for everyone we are all living on borrowed time.
Thank you for kind words.
“Until rapacious Capitalism is overcome by something that works for everyone” – Christianity (and ideologies based on Christianity) can only work for everyone. We have the same old struggle: Christ against Mammon.
There is a hell of a lot of Mammon existing in the world today. I had in mind an influx of Socialism with a specific area in mind ,the US and an end to its foreign interventions. I personally don’t feel that our chances are very good.
To me from Europe, it looks, US was always rather about individual success than about the social justice.
individual success=profit
As in the writings of Ayn Rand
But improvement is possible, Social Democracies were on the way, not anymore.
Christ= Humanism
” a world order where the national states are unable to control the international capitalist corporations”
Yes, that to me is the gist of it. Under our western system, there’s an ownership class behind the scenes that selects the national leadership primarily to maintain and expand its own power and benefits. Under the Chinese system, you have the party apparatus that controls all, and the primary purpose appears to be national development and sovereignty, not profit. Interesting competition.
Yes, it is an interesting competition. Not only on geopolitical level, but also inside The West and inside many other countries, including Russia. Hopefully, in the end, we will get something good enough for the majority of the human kind. It can’t be good for everyone because there are a lot of people with evil intentions. What is good for them is always bad for the others.
You make sense, it explains how the NATO nations could end up with the same kind of governments they have.
The Chinese people are good students, they know how the West ticks.
China is more attractive than The West, and yet we don’t want to live in a world dominated by China. The multipolar world is what we need. I have great hopes for BRICS.
I personally have no problem living in a world dominated by China; we’re already there.
The problem I have is the West threatening war with China out of irrational fear of domination.
China is well counterbalanced by Russia and India, leave alone US. China is developing fast and getting stronger but neighbors of China are also getting stronger. Particular India is doing well.
The US has an unsurmountable education gap with China,India etc. Life will not go well for those who survive the traumas to come.
Extremely well put very smart person. The US has no defense against real Democracy.
“liberal world order” as in apartheid Israel according to Zionist Blinken??
or “liberal” Nazi Ukraine cleansed of all things Russian??
or good ally Azerbaijan today purging Armenians??
Atlantic’s Jeff Goldberg doing a purrfect Barbara Wawa interview so loved by Zionist MSM.
There will always journalists that can not see or speak the truth about the hand that feeds them.
We all know who dictates
to Amerikkka, Robert, and the quasi-nation is in your comment.
Yes, but common discourse always runs to the POTUS and Congress. It needs to be drilled home again and again that come to Actual Power the Constitution and all its chartered institutions are frauds. Only watch how the present budget “crisis” plays out. Even if they succeed in stripping any Ukraine fuding from the CR, ‘Biden’ will discover more ‘accounting errors’, monies will be reprogrammed, ‘off-budget funds will be tapped, ….
You can count on it.
The most serious problems with Blinken’s argument is that the US, and this administration in particular, doesn’t always play by the rules it espouses. There is a work-around for every agreement and every rule ever put into force. There are double standards. Anything can be, and often is, justified by the argument that we are 𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒍𝒆𝒅 to exceptions.
And you put it mildly.
Blinken says….., Zelensky demands…., Biden zzzzzzzzzzz, Nuland plans…………, EU kneels……….., Bärbock raves……., Scholz caves…………,
How illuminating.
I believe they were indicating “neo-liberal world order”.
My-oh-my how the definition of “liberal” has changed. When I was a young woman, liberals were anti-war and pro- non military aid to poor countries. I suppose the writing was on the wall when the first candidate I ever voted for at age 18 was snubbed by the Amerikkkan public in favor of Nixon. We all know how that worked out.
You really hit the nail on the head, propaganda has turned all honest definitions up-side down, that includes Socialism and the meaning of autocrats dictators and on and on, depending how the meaning fits the political narrative. They are stomping on the language.
It is astounding. A long while back I saw a pro-Pride demonstration, with a lone person off nearby holding a sign that said simply “I (heart) JK Rowling”.
His sign was considered hateful.
The inversionist propagandist nonsense of woke (aka Political Correctness Version 5 or 6) is destroying the use of language and with it, rational and reasonable discourse.
“I (heart) JK Rowling”. May I ask, who is JK Rowling ? Re-reading, I got it, replacing (love)
I did see a sign in a German demonstration it said, ” Putin for the Nobel Peace Price.”
I know it is off topic, but I like spreading the word and second it. Julio will (love) me for it.
JK Rowling is the author of the Harry Potter novels. She’s also made public statements on gender identity issues that some consider controversial.
Thanks, now I connect what Uncle posted.
“May I ask, who is JK Rowling ?” Nothing worth your time. My children and grand children wasted a lot of their time reading that nonsense instead of Tolstoy’s War and Peace. (Sarcasm)
I’ve read both, NA!
I was fascinated by classic Russian literature in middle school. One I could never finish was “Ana Karenina”… there were too many damned characters!
Dr. Zhivago was my favorite.
But I did enjoy the Harry Potter books and for some good empty reads, Stephen King is my favorite contemporary author.
If you haven’t yet, check out Star Wars. It is so much like real life. The villain, the Sith Lord, goes around starting wars all over, just like Victoria Nuland. But the Sith Lord is better looking. (Sarcasm) https://oyster.ignimgs.com/mediawiki/apis.ign.com/star-wars-episode-7/2/2f/Darth_Sidious.jpg?width=640
Oh NA, that just made my everlovin’ day 😂😂😂
I prefer,Noam Chomsky,Chris Hedges and Patrick Lawrence.
Blinker wants to maintain a one-country world rule.
Who gave us the dictatorial role of determining what the world order should look like?
The answer is the self appointed most exceptional country in history.
Say it right Blinken, ‘China threatens U.S. dominance’, and guess what Tony, the U.S. enabled and were fine with building up China’s economy by flooding the U.S. with their cheap products, and enabling American businesses to benefit from China’s slave wages but now that China has become an economic power that is threatening to overtake the U.S., well now we can’t have that.
I think Putins hand was forced. I do not think he deserves the prize but neither did Obama for drones and Syria.
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2023/09/no_author/western-governments-surrounding-russia-amidst-promises-of-money/
Thanks I read the article you recommended. Very interesting.
Putin deserves the price, he sure is an outstanding leader and statesman. USA/NATO has nothing like him, they have greedy s***heads, people without character and honor but with criminal minds.
The USA threatens peace on earth. Biden/Nuland and Zelensky are pushing for at least conventional war in Europe with the possibility of nuclear war. What do these idiots think will be left worth winning?
Voices in Europe, in demonstrations, call for the peace Nobel price for Putin.
And the war is turning Ukraine into a virtual Shangri- la, Lysi 😉
Who on earth wants to live in a nation replete with cluster bombs and depleted uranium?
It brings to mind a phrase from the Vietnam era: “We had to destroy the village in order to save it”.
NATO is doing something what even Germans refused to do in WW II. Germans never used chemical weapons though they could do it. US and UK, who are driving power of NATO, don’t care about continental Europe. They wouldn’t mind to use tactical nukes, providing it is not used against themselves. Unfortunately, European members of NATO are just pawns in this game.
Perhaps enough angry Pawns will help topple a would be King.
First they should topple their own puppet clown kings. So far, it never happened.
There are American troops, Europe is occupied.
It depends upon European people whether US militaries are going to stay in Europe or not. EU people can’t get independence as long as they tolerate their pro-American elites.
I think the same global corporate powers that own the US government own the European governments as well as all with regime change replaced governments in Latin America. The US do meddle in elections of advanced Democracies like Germany. They made Scholz possible I am convinced of it.
The US is not about to close Ramstein just because Germans want it, you can be sure Scholz would never request or demand it. No more than he demands a real investigation of the pipeline sabotage.
Scholz is definitely more pro-American than pro-German.
US oligarchy is controlling most of European governments one way or other. But also through NGO and control over Mass Media they are influencing ordinary people of Europe. People are disorientated. They don’t understand what is going on and why. They know one thing: the life in EU is better than in Russia or China. Maybe they are right. Probably, for the majority of people it is really so. Higher salaries etc. That makes them think that their, dominated by US oligarchy political system, is the best and they are reluctant to change it. On the other hand, there are a lot of Germans who not so long time ago relocated from Germany to Russia and it looks, almost no one of them regretted about that. Or Americans who live in Moscow. There is almost consensus that the life in Moscow is much better than, for example, the life in New York. One thing is clear: the life in Russia and China is improving while the life in US and in EU is deteriorating. This situation is very dangerous for US oligarchy.
I do agree with you. I grew up in Germany after the war, the living standard was lower than in the total US society, but THE QUALITY OF LIFE WAS BETTER than for many Americans. In the US I saw poverty I had never seen before. Germans always had health and dental care something we still don’t have.
Now we have homelessness and some 11 million children go to bed hungry and all our opportunistic politicians can think about gender related toilet issues and how to win the votes, hungry children don’t count. DISGUSTING.
Quality of life is more than wages and salaries.
The American led global elite owns the EU, it will take a bloody resistance to get rid of them much like in the USA. Look at out saturated united US/NATO dominated media. They must get orders before they publish and go public. The unity of Main Stream MEDIA is unbelievable.
Yes, the corporate media is very well coordinated, the same as activity of the western politicians. It looks, now they decided, it is the right time to create a new version of history. Sure, Canadian parliament event was well planned. About the same time, an EU politician (the name sounds like Von Der Liar) hinted that it was Russia who dropped a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima. She never mentioned US at all. With total control over mass media and education, they can do anything. We are lucky that there are a lot of independent countries now. They will never allow this new mythology be forced upon them.
In the Bundestag the opposition confronts the members of the government in their face calling them stupid and embarrassing by name including Scholz, but never once do they call the USA or Biden by name. For good reason too.
Germany has one competent opposition party, the AfD. The traditional parties are losing, at least a shimmer of hope, with Orban and others they could become a real force in Europe.
The USA has thousands of troops stationed in Europe, would they point their guns against Europeans fighting US power in Europe?
The sabotage of Nord Stream and failure of NATO in Ukraine helped them. They call Alternative for Germany far-right but the real far-right is current German leadership, they are openly supporting neo-Nazis.
The AfD is a normal conservative party, there is nothing extreme about the party, but the old parties try to use the McCarthy method to break them.
The people judge the current leadership by their actions, they are traitors, they sold their nation.
I still have vivid memories of those wonderful days with bodies rolling into Dover AFB.
I as well, Wendell!
It shows how evil US officials really are, to provide cluster bombs they know the Ukrainians used against their own population. And they can sink even lower.
They can and they will, Lysi 🙁
And you know Americans used cluster bombs in the Vietnam war, people still die.
During the Vietnam War, the US used cluster bombs in air strikes against targets in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. Of the 260 million cluster bomblets that rained down on Laos between 1964 and 1973, particularly on Xieng Khouang province, 80 million failed to explode.
Horrifying, Lysi.
I read somewhere that Laos was the recipient of more bombs than all the participants of WWll combined.
King of the Hill
Is a fun place to be
You rule
They rue
And the rule of law
Is simply what you dictate
But it won’t last
Never does
What a lie from Blinked-and missed-him: China is not trying to dominate other countries, the way the US does every freakin’ day.
Perhaps, but we have lived with them so far, haven’t we?
By the way, who blew up Nord Stream?
Anyonw with half a brain who reads anything not colored by the MSM knows damn well who is responsible for the pipelines.
They know who did it, that is why there is no investigation. The USA, the Biden neocon POS, did it.
Wait!? It wasn’t Putin? LOL. Jimmy Dore: “You have to be a paid professional liar to say, ‘we don’t know who blew up Nord Stream.'” (Sarcasm)
European politicians believe it is safer not to know who did it.
The leading NATO members do know who did it. They are treasonous governments with some exceptions , like Orban in Hungary.
Scholz must have been told in advance, that is why he was not surprised and stood by silently, the little worm, when Biden said he will do it. So much for sovereign Germany.
The same powers who own the US own Germany.
The only threat to the World is the US with it`s NATO LACKEYS , including Sweden , Denmark , Australia S.K , Japan , they are all DOMINATED by the US , where as Russia , China and the Southern Countries are INDEPENDENT SOVEREIGN COUNTRIES who make their own decisions , until invaded by the US and the LACKEYS .
Exactly, the USA is the global danger. The US is the biggest enemy of Germany and the EU, the whole of Europe. we can only hope that Russia wins and ends the Ukraine conflict as soon as possible.
NS2 confirms it.
NATO members are not sovereign nations, not even the UK. When it counts they must do as told.
What. A. Clod. … Biden’s Mule.
So openly projecting American entitlements on China, he needs a headshrink to open his eyes and make him look in a mirror. The guy has issues.
Well damn, I’ve been telling anyone that would listen this since about 2012. Is he def? What took them so long to figure it out? Have they figured out that DJT is working for them yet?
“I think they want a world order, but the world order that they seek is profoundly illiberal in nature; ours is liberal with a small ‘L.’ And that’s the fundamental difference,” Blinken said. (excerpt)
I for one tend to mostly agree with Blinken on this one. Russia and China are dictatorships. Trying to pass as representative governments. Although there are a lot of good ideas coming out of China in the area of renewables and technology. China’s government policies and suppression of its people leaves me cautious. Russia is definitely a NO.
Interesting that the Chinese government has eliminated all poverty at the first level of the UN definition.
I believe you have absolutely no idea – whatever – what you are talking about when it comes to China.
Furthermore, you should get educated when it comes to the Chinese economic system, which while creating multimillionaires, does not leave the poorest behind. In contrast we have capitalism, which leaves poverty as one of its inevitable bi-products.
As for Russia, I’ll take your description of China as sufficient cause to ignore your two-liner on Russia.
Shorter: all I see here is a hack.
I don’t care to support totalitarian regimes. Russia, China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, N Korea etc. I prefer laissez faire liberalism in government instead of in your face totalitarianism. Not all in China fair well. Read the World Report 2023 on human rights. https://www.hrw.org/world-report/2023/country-chapters/china and you get an education.
I don’t care to support regimes that finance apartheid nations in their quest to eliminate the indigenous population.
Oh wait, ha ha, that’d be US!
If you think the US is a liberal government you are ignorant of history and the oppression of workers,immigrants and people of color.
In the sense of unlimited economic brutality it is liberal, nothing else counts. We have human rights for the wealthy, human rights have a price.
The US has undermined international organizations, they have lost all credibility big time. That includes the UN at the top of the list.
Laissez fare aka ruthless and boundless greed.
Straight-john, Old Guy!
May I add, WE have an autocratic presidency not accountable to congress which is only a bunch of greedy opportunists anyway.
A president can start wars without any accountability to anyone.
I think Socialism has humanized Capitalism in China, Russia , and Europe, doing much better than Capitalism pure in the USA.
The US government is only liberal where rich white people matter.
Please define Democracy.
Putin was elected by the people as far as we know, he is accountable to the Russian parliament, called the Duma.
We have an autocratic presidency, the president is not accountable to congress, he can start wars including nuclear war without consulting congress and sign checks he expects congress to approve without any public debates.
He is not obligated to inform the public why he goes to war, the presidents administration and our one party congress automatically supports the control of Mainstream Media.
Presidents break multinational treaties as they please, without debates in the parliament, Bush ended the ABM agreements, did he consult the congress? Trump broke multination treaties without consulting anyone and Biden continues it.
What is an Autocrat?
Autocrat =someone who insists on complete obedience from others; an imperious or domineering person:
Sounds like we have an elected dictatorship.
We have an autocratic presidency, unrelated to democracy. The presidents do as they please without consulting congress or the public.
Our government, with a few exceptions, consists of opportunists without any concern for the nation. Take a good look at the mess our society really is, all of it because our POS officials are busy stuffing their pockets.
Education, health care, shelter, infrastructure, you name it, all is in ruins, we have cities who don’t have clean drinkingwater, third world standards all around us, compare that to China. We can’t compare, that is reason enough to declare China our biggest adversary.
The US has become a pariah nation, the greed of our establishment elite did it, not Putin and not Xi Jinping. We did it to ourselves, the greed of individualism did it.
Please don’t hold back. Tell us all what you really think.
Tell me when I stick my neck out too much. You know times have changed, actually not much, there was the McCarthy era and civil rights issues and Vietnam splitting our society and it was bloody.
WTF does that even mean? “Liberal World Order”. Newspeak. Doublespeak. Sh*tspeak.
Maybe a free global economy with American predators in charge?
Maybe a free global economy with American predators in charge?
“Blinken Says China Threatens US-Led ‘Liberal World Order’ The secretary of state says China is a bigger ‘threat’ than Russia”
Beta Boy Blinken and CB Victoria Nuland are threatened when they cannot dictate to the world.
Is it any wonder that the Global South and most other countries are running away from America?
So, now, Mr. Blinken has morphed it from “rule of law” to “rules-based order” to “liberal world order”. But there isn’t anything liberal about global US hegemony. I don’t fundamentally see that the US is willing to have fair and equitable relations with other nations, including peer competitors such as Russia, China, and Germany, let alone with smaller nations. It could, of course, but that would take a sea change of leadership.
Americans are bullies, Biden bullies and threatens and punishes without even a touch of Diplomacy, does the ignorant nerd even know what diplomacy and statesmanship is?
The Biden gang treats allies like enemies, see Germany and France and the EU. The NS2 sabotage against Germany and the break up of the French submarine contract with Australia and sanctions, just reminders.
Anything that threatens anything Tony Blinken supports is A-Ok in my book
“I think they want a world order, but the world order that they seek is profoundly illiberal in nature; ours is liberal with a small ‘L.’ And that’s the fundamental difference,” Blinken said.
*******
Liberal with a small, small L, very, very small, infinitesimally small, subatomic nano-L
Americans committed suicide, people and nations don’t like to be bullied, but Blinken is too ignorant to get it. Coercion, extortion, sanctions, stealing money and resources and dropping bombs on people is just not how one makes friends. Americans are stabbing even their allies in the back, how long can that go well?
What a liar the thug is and how dumb does he think people are? What an arrogant SOB.
…And US has been threatened the world order since its creation…! And no Mr Blinken US led order is just pure bullying…!
I do believe many countries have had enough of the U.S. led ‘liberal world order’ I don’t see many other countries wanting to take on the depraved culture that is becoming the U.S.
