It’s not, but the world we live in now also means countries can’t take the US at their word.
This opportunity to look good was handed to China on a silver platter.
China’s getting a bit aggressive though atm. Not as bas as the US, but still not exactly ‘free’ for the countries involved.
We are near (or already past) the point where a child born today in China will have greater opportunity, life expectancy, and educational attainment than the average American child born at the same time.
The west is falling behind. It’s citizens will start to take notice if it continues down this authoritarian path. I could excuse the corporate bullshit when we had freedoms, but day after day it is clear those freedoms are being abandoned. If I’m going to have less freedoms, seems like it makes sense to do that in a country that invests in infrastructure and the future, instead of 3 billionaires with space companies, censoring the media platforms they bought.
