This seems to be a recurring fear among pro-Biden Democrats.
No real regard for Palestine or pregnant women in Texas or Trans people anywhere, but this absolute terror over Chinese economic influence spreading across East Asia.
It feels like the Dem policy is just "We need Biden to fight more of the correct wars America needs to be in".
And that's what I'm afraid a second Biden term will bring.
We've seen one term of an insurrectionist filling 1/3 of SCOTUS with corrupt and unqualified shitheads. They are already taking away the rights of my neighbors and aiming for more. I know why I am against Donald and it has nothing to do with China.
I'm still struggling to figure out why so-called "leftists" on Lemmy want full authoritarian fascism. When they are telling me any amount of collateral damage is fine as long as large numbers of white Americans get murdered, and their comment history is full of wanking over socialism with Chinese characteristics, that's the conclusion I am going to draw.
Because they crave fascism, but they're too cowardly to admit it out loud.
Don't worry, I'm sure your favorite totalitarian state will be more than happy to let you lick their blood-stained boots. :)
Call Texas totalitarian all you want. I'm just going to keep fighting to make it better.
