1 year agoI am not defending China, just pointing out a crappy argument.
We’re becoming more and more fascist in the west, with politicians like Trump, DeSantis and so on. This article from Reuters is part of this shift to the right and that’s why I’m pointing it out. Fascism is a bigger risk to our way of life than China is.
A thing can’t be weak and strong by the same metric, indeed. That’s why this article has to call China’s economical strength a miracle, as well as so weak it is about to collapse, otherwise the contradiction would be too obvious.
