    American exceptionalism. They believe everyone owes them a red carpet, limousines, a VIP room and blowjobs on demand.

    I'm going to relish every single second of the hysteria coming from those types as their hegemonic privileges wither away with the rise of China and the Global South.

      They were incredibly butthurt when China increased qualification requirements and background checks for English teachers to renew their visas. A lot of them left and have been sour grapesing since then. Heart warming to see.

        A non-white nation surpassing the West in all respects, while the latter stews in arrested national development and full-spectrum decay.

        They have nothing more to say, really. China is physical and social proof of a superior form of governance by the proletariat. Hell, even a single video from the channel Living in China is enough to shut people up and shatter Cold War world views in most cases. What can you honestly say when the proof is just right in front of you? The narratives would have to become increasingly cartoony and absurd.. and they are.. and it's not working anymore.

        China doesn't need the imperialist countries anymore. Too fucking bad for them. They don't get to be the masters and keep their boots on everyone's necks anymore. Their race theory is also shot to shit now, so they've lost pretty much everything they used to rely on to legitimize themselves.
