    Written like a true American, only taking American interests into account and dismissing any other perspectives as non-existent.

    Chinese policy makers have legitimate concerns about US activities relating to space but of course those concerns are entirely invalid.

      The problem is that US policy makers started taking the idea that US is the sole global superpower for granted after the fall of USSR. The world has changed in the past 30 years, and US is no longer able to subjugate countries like China or Russia to its will. Yet, the political class in US still isn’t able to comprehend that leading to disastrous and self destructive policies that US pursues.

      It’s this arrogant attitude from US policy makers that leads more and more people to root for China

        It’s pretty clear who the baddies in the contest between US and China are.

    Vietnam almost bankrupted the US. Ukraine has completely destroyed the western economies. Militarizing space seems… Expensive.

      Alright…

      Ukraine has completely destroyed the western economies

      Err…

      Militarizing space seems… Expensive.

      3 points in a row missing the mark?

      Keep some of your stupidity for your children. Don’t hog it all yourself.

        Vietnam was what caused the US to abandon the gold standard. There was no choice but to abandon it as the war was about to bankrupt the US.

        I feel like something as contemporary as Ukraine speaks for itself. The UK has gone through about 3 heads of state in just as many months. Germany is unable to fuel its industry, inflation in the US at 10%.

        As far as the militarization of space, the point speaks for itself. Here are two comparatively little things you couldn’t even do, yet you want to talk about something far more expensive and difficult to accomplish.

        I shouldn’t even be responding to you since you didn’t give me anything to respond to. You just bullet-pointed what I previously said and ooga-booga’ed. You call me stupid, but at least I know how to speak in a manner as to convey intelligent meaning, which is more than you can say.

    Manufacturing consent to bomb Chinese space stations or something? Looks too obvious to me…
