"Yet we still have a sufficiently competitive marketplace of ideas that the truth soon finds its way in." Really? Tell that to the 46% of Americans who would vote for Trump tomorrow.

An interesting analysis. However, the lies that China tells are not that much different from American lies about slavery benefitting everyone, lies about the guarantees of native American tribal lands, lies about the coming Great Depression, lies about Viet Nam, lies about Iraq, and the list goes on. Almost half the population still believes Trump's lies about everything. I think we lie and buy into lies as much as anyone.

I think it's time for us to stop being so critical of China, and concentrate on the problems we have at home in the United States. The mistakes that Xi Jinping makes are HIS problem. The mistakes the United States government makes are OUR problem. The last thing we need is a "moral" crusade against yet another foreign country in the name of "freedom."

I find it hard to believe that you’re from here being that you don’t seem to recognize that introspection, and especially of the self-critical variety, is not a component of the Anglo, including Anglo-American approach. It never has been, and it never will be. Just look at the hysterical reaction against critical race theory. Even if it has flaws in overreaching, it’s based in historical facts of which America refuses allow any “other” interpretation. All this while their Anglo-Christian brothers to the north have to make excuses for the hundreds of Native children whose murders their versions of history have kept concealed.
America wants EVERYBODY to forget what it did to the Native Americans. Until America acknowledges its fundamental, and persistent, historical crimes against humanity, America is nothing but a lie!

“Meanwhile, in northern Afghanistan, district after district has fallen to the Taliban. In just the last two days hundreds of Afghan soldiers fled across the border into Tajikistan rather than fight the insurgents.”

Mission Accomplished

I am so surprised that this is happening in the north, I was under the impression that taliban was weak there.

After reading through the article and knowing that's posted on Fox News the bastion of "journalism" in America I waded through the comments section to learn and glean from the cream of the crop of American exceptionalism and boy oh boy I wasn't disappointed one bit. Although, irony isn't really a strong suit to these American genocidal maniacs from reading this gem of a strategic insight from this fella here. The guy can be so enthusiastic of using extermination methods and yet doesn't see the irony of the same moron calling China's effort in Xinjiang as "genocide." Holy mother f..ng stupid.

"Depends on your concept of "win". If I were in command, I would have dropped Daisy Cutters and MOABs and neutron bombs until no one was alive to mutter Allah. I would call that a win. I would have sacrificed ZERO American lives in doing so. We fought the war as if there was something there to LOSE. There is nothing. The people hate us. So why are we trying so hard to avoid them? Just turn the entire country into a parking lot. Then leave."

Well tbf I have seen people even on this forum saying that in an (hypothetical) invasion of Afghan by China

China with it's tech can win with ruthlessness, of killing everything in sight

So this inhumanity/racism exist in every country,

Every nation drunk on power thinks they can win in Afghanistan by being ruthless (even then you can't beat em they have caves, mountains and people will go to neighboring countries and launch attacks from thier- so even millitarically it doesn't make sense)

Interesting analysis. Demographics will cause hardship indeed but, I have yet to see an article explaining why China's growth rate will slow below US levels. There is simply no reason for it.

This is actually quite common, quite common, in AmeriKKKan rhetoric!

Yet, the Taliban win by being ruthless. There is a place for ruthlessness in warfare that does not have to be rooted in racism. That’s where AmeriKKKans miss the boat. There’s been racial animus in damn near every thing they’ve done.
Btw, the Mongols would have defeated the Taliban, and just might have defeated their historical predecessors.

It's rare for any sane Chinese to be spewing such idiotic genocidal drivel if am being curt. I have lived in your country from west coast (Napa Valley) to Virginia where this type of talk was pretty common and I often found myself holding my anger back since I wasn't an American in every sense of the word, not in paper or birth. One of the fellow I had conversation about the Afghanistan war quipped that "America should bomb everyone in Afghanistan and let God sort them out." I thought wow, what an arrogant S.O.B. and what an insane, inhumane dirt bag. But such language is not surprising because like most Americans they are also very Christiany religious and in the Bible itself the mass killings were justified and happened so many time especially in the old testament where it dealt with Moses and his people fleeing from Egypt and how every first born son was pretty much wiped out by their God. If one has to ask rationally what's the crime of those every first born children of Egypt from being murdered? That they were born from the wrong ethnic group? I mean with all due respect to your adopted country, the land that you guys are all sitting or standing on right now wasn't yours to begin with. It belonged to a group of people that were essentially almost wiped out from the face of the earth. And the only remaining legacy it leaves behind are the names of most of the U.S. states.

Amen, it is up to us all to never forget that the only reason america exists is because it perpetrated a genocide not on one people, but an entire race and frankly makes even nazism seem tame. The truth is every opponent of america is more righteous than they ever were, but I would be open to debating this if there were people that think otherwise.
