You are correct, and this is America's, and West's predicament.
If you can't do this, you can't do this.
And you certainly wouldn't be able to do even more painful things which are truly needed for the West to have any chance to put the genie back into the bottle.
China, and Russia have effectively conditioned the NATO countries over the decades into "self-beneficial inaction." Now, seeing words like yours proves their strategy worked.

- pjc50 6y agoIt's a funny kind of losing. It looks more like "not totally dominant" to me, which may be confused with losing by people who've not experienced that. What has the US really lost? No territory, no people; there's no stream of refugees to the "winning" Chinese side.
- AlexCoventry 6y agoWe just got done dealing with four years of leadership by a (possibly unwitting) agent of a foreign power, installed with the help of holes in our IT infrastructure. Our sovereignty and capacity for effective self-governance are severely compromised, at this point. That's more important than loss of territory or people, in the long run.
