State department hand wringing that China is going to use the US trade agreements as they were designed is

All the free trade propaganda stems from a time when imperialist powers depended on it to steamroll native industries in the periphery. Of course, it was associated with all the liberty freedom democracy propaganda, so once it no longer became preferable and even enabled the possibility of the reverse happening, they have to materially oppose it, but still wax poetic about it to please their bootlickers and sycophants.
