And here we go folks, the authoritarian CCP is now the dominant super power in soft power.

And now unless the US does something to fix their shit, get ready for GENERATIONS of salty Americans about how they used to be the best country in the world.

This American says we deserve the loss at this point. We, the American people, chose to be untrustworthy sonsofbitches. It's not even something like "CIA Games we weren't aware of" or "We were lied to", we just straight-up, repeatedly, have chosen to be untrustworthy.

EU and/or other democratic coalitions, please step up so I can just have my pride hurt, and not despair over the future of the world.
