  The Chinese consider the US’s current diversity self-flagellation to be very much one of their strategic advantages[1]. The paper is from the US point of view, but it’s the best I have on the Chinese one. I think it’s blindingly obvious that unity is superior to division, and a society ordered toward unity will be more vigorous and persist longer than one ordered toward diversity. Fortunately, I don’t have to convince anyone. A grand natural experiment has been running for the past six decades. I predict that within our lifetime the USA will not be a functioning world power. It does concern me what’s going to happen to all the nukes when the country is torn apart by its own internal contradictions.
