- JumpCrisscross 4y ago> China, which didn’t invade anyone in half a decade, militaristic? Let me guess, you’re American? Nobody's claiming America isn't militaristic. But it's not a dictatorship. And it's acting in its self interest. China blocks every foreign social media app. Whataboutism doesn't make rhetorical sense here.

Not that it should matter, but in the interest of accuracy he was a Saudi journalist who wrote for (among others) an American media company, not an American journalist. Unless they broke out the bone saws for someone else besides Jamal Khashoggi.
