    “An advocate” for China.

    Why the word “advocate?” I mean, yeesh, why not call American jingoists “advocates for America.”

    Sorry, it’s just that the language used here in the first sentence is already a red flag. That, and honestly: it’s the online rag Foreign Policy. I’m afraid that I’ll just end up hate-reading it…
