Like the amount of half truth and ignored nuance in this piece is staggering.

EDIT: It is even more insane when you consider there is an explicit plan by the US intelligence state to break up and balkanize China. Like they aren't even trying to keep it secret.

    Its so strange too, its not like deng was hiding his plans. Theres quotes of him telling US diplomats what china is doing, and its plans for the future. The bourguoise are too blinded by short-term profits and their own ideology to care.
