    I was at a party this weekend and I heard someone say: ‘Yeah I’m terrified of China becoming a global super power’. I don’t drink and I didn’t feel like arguing with a drunk guy so I just went to get some food but it was interesting hearing a take like that in the wild.

      yeah man, how fucked up would it be to have to have to constantly fear a genocidal hegemony who can surveil your every thought, holds a nuclear arsenal, has a total strangehold over the means of information, and ruthlessly destroys any perceived threat to itself. What a nightmare. /s
