    Better pro American source since reuters has a typo: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/17/us/politics/democrats-china-strategy.html

    This is such a crazy thing to do. Why do we think further antagonizing china is going to end well for us?

          Same article:

          The bill would also seek to punish Beijing for human rights abuses against the largely Muslim Uighur minority

            Look, I'm not an american, thank fuck, but I still live in the Imperial periphery and thus am the recipient and the cause for a lot of suffering in the, mostly southern, World. Mark my words, when the US launches multiple amphibious assaults against Chinese cities and coastlines that make the Normandy landings look like a goddamn picnic, I will be over here laughing my ass off as they start shipping the good little chuds back in pine boxes.

            The fucking absolute BALLS of the goddamn failed state of using muslims as a casus belli after brutalising them for DECADES. Jesus fucking Christ. Death to the USA.
