The Chinese embassy in Washington just emailed journalists a five-chapter pamphlet on "US Hegemony and Its Perils"
Pretty thin gruel, culminating with this doctrinaire conclusion that rings quite hollow coming from a regime that is entertaining the invasion of Taiwan, has "bullied" Hong Kong's democrats into submission and turned Xinjiang into a dystopian experiment in surveillance & control.
Muted this conversation because of the volume of responses, but just adding that I'm hardly an apologist for US "hegemony" or what have you. Indeed, awareness of its abuses launched me on my career. Just don't need the CCP to tell me about it. https://twitter.com/ishaantharoor/status/1626578244198596608…
I was a freshman in college and I was there. And I remain proud of that to this day. I also am still angry at how easily it was dismissed by the Anglo political establishment and a shamefully lapdog media. It’s why I went into journalism.
