China doesn’t want a showdown, it’s not Russia/Iran/NK/Pakistan/…, why must Americans think that if they are not #1 it’s the end of civilization? China only really care about itself (and Taiwan, but that’s a very special and not a black or white situation). US extreme hubris (and increasing plain racism) regarding China is really making me nervous. Americans should instead be following the words of Kennedy regarding Pax Americana. I obviously don’t support China politics, but I fail to see how they are a risk for western democracies and why peaceful coexistence and trade could not continue (in contrast to Russia for example where I’m grateful of US support). I’m open to be shown otherwise.
