Woke culture and political correctness are why China is eating our lunch. What a fantastic 10 minutes, thanks Bill Maher!

    China's only a problem for the US because we want to make them a problem. They'll do business with us or they'll do business with Europe or with India or Indonesia or whomever. They don't really care.

    If you want to talk about a real challenge to US hegemony, look to South America. Losing control down there means crippling our access to a whole host of natural resources that form the basis of our domestic wealth and trade dominance. Those states have a serious reason to beef with the US. And any kind of Iraq-style invasion threatens violence spilling over into the US in a manner that really could change how we exist as an empire.
