> US strategy towards China as of late seems so defensive and even feels a bit desperate
One funny reading that's been gaining traction among Chinese netizens over the last few years has been likening the US to the Trisolarians in Liu Cixin's Three Body Problem, trying to undermine science while becoming increasingly chaotic and agressive at home.
I really hope apps like RedNote gain a bit of traction so there's more cultural exchange and people get a bit of an idea of how all of this is being perceived in China. There was also this whole meme last year of Trump as "建国同志", basically "Comrade Nation Builder", the joke being that the nation he's building is China because he's doing more to unify their efforts than the government ever could.
