They are horrible. And re: the lab thing. I have no trouble believing that they would try to refine and stockpile the virus they have been isolating from bats and that the damn thing was spread by some careless lab worker drunk off mijiu. Hell, they have been working on biologic weapons for 70 years.
Besides their coronavirus fuckery, their fuckery with Tibet, Hong Kong, Taiwan, the South China Sea being annexed and rattling their sabers if you dare sail through international waters, stealing IP, horrible civil rights issues, and a host of other things...they are the worst. They are the next Germany circa 1939. Unchecked, they just get worse. And will continue to do so."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln

China is not 1939 Germany. The Nazis were run by morons with delusions of grandeur. Their whole schtick was all short term gain that had no chance at long term success. The Nazis will be history's bogeyman for a long time and for good reason but they weren't built to last. I have read a lot on that period of history and never read anything explaining how they thought they were going to be able to continue to occupying those countries indefinitely.
The Chinese are much more formidable foe and we'll be dealing with them for a long time. The biggest problem is always going to be that the US(and the rest of the world) get sizable benefits from trade with them. You can make a theoretical argument that we have power over them because of this, but so far that hasn't revealed itself in any sort of unified strategy.

Germany was more powerful and formidable than China. China is a long-term problem, but one that can pretty well addressed. They are still a fucking god-awful regime that deserves every last ounce of contempt the free world can muster.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
