The U.S. needs to realize that China is NOT a mirror image of the hegemonic U.S.

The U.S. should stop viewing China-U.S. relations with an outdated Cold War mentality.

Both Marco Rubio and Boris Johnson refer to Ukraine as a proxy war @Glenn_Diesen

Academics who referred to the Ukraine War as a proxy war were smeared, censored and cancelled - Now, both Marco Rubio and Boris Johnson refer to it as a proxy war, so now we are also allowed - Our journalists joined in on the censorship to counter "Russian propaganda".

I have issues with Christian or Jewish people talking about a piece of land being the right of one ethnic group.

'I have no issue with Jews thinking about that part of land as a spiritual home. I have issues with Christian or Jewish people talking about a piece of land being the right of one ethnic group. The right of one ethnic group, over and above another ethnic group.'
