    Yeah absolutely, I think they completely misread the relationship between Russia and China as well as many other countries. I think that until Xi’s visit they still thought there would be some way to intimidate China into submission.

      Imagine spending an entire decade scapegoating Chinese academics, building hostile bases around the Chinese mainland, starting a trade war, blaming an entire global pandemic on China while doing absolutely everything within power to sustain that pandemic, sending politicians to nakedly rile up separatism in Taiwan, and also publicizing a formal date for an explicit hot war… and being Pikachu face shocked that China doesn’t wanna be friends anymore.

        That’s been kind of surreal to watch honestly. US keeps making it clear to China that they want to destroy China and literally threatens to invade, but also expects China to take their side. Really shows how deranged US politicians are.
