RSSI have no reason to doubt the truth contained in this article. However, it’s not clear why Israel would bankroll Democrats, as opposed to similarly shilling Republicans, given their dim view of Obama’s treatment. Why would Israel think a Democrat-controlled Congress, with Obama’s VP heading the executive branch, would be more favorable than the usual evangelical Republican scumbags who have served their interests over America’s since Israel’s inception? Is Israel stupid enough to believe that the USA’s support will continue unabated a decade or two into the future of an ever “browning” America? Why would blacks, Latinos, and Asians give a shit about Israel? The Israel subservience, ideologically speaking, seems mainly a white Christian thing. If in the future the US population is 20% black, 40% Latino, 10% Asian, 10% middle eastern, with whitey barely holding on for dear life, who in their right mind thinks a very tiny number of Jews, no matter how rich and powerful, could continue the double dealing sham? Will they bribe everyone into submission? Would that even be possible? I think Israel is in for a very rude awakening, particularly those who think that their interests are better served by an America that’s a chaotic mess of over-diversity.
“The Administration, sometimes subtly and sometimes not so subtly, links China directly to the emergence of the Coronavirus”
As if there’s no evidence for that. It’s mere coincidence that the epicenter of the outbreak just happened to host a bio lab that did cutting edge research on how to amplify the efficacy of covid viruses. Oh wait, I forgot. Covid was planted by the US military during a 2019 visit. China is just one big lump of wholesome goodness. They’d never do anything naughty, inadvertently or otherwise, that might cause any harm to human beings anywhere, no siree.
I don`t think anyone believes that. The "Blame China" narrative is weak for a few reasons, not the least of which is that the alleged killer virus has never been isolated by anybody. Spain claims it found the killer virus in sewage samples from April 2019, which is more than 6 months prior to "Person 1" being identified in Wuhan. Even if the Spanish are wrong, Italy has reported cases from September 2019.

“What better than to arrange some dastardly enemy to attack the country and unite it?”
I think that old unification-of-the-masses logic only applies to a country that is at or above some critical level of cultural and ethnic homogeneity. The USA no longer qualifies. A war against Iran is more likely to amplify political and racial frictions. Do you really think that a war would unite in any way the BLM/Antifa crowd with white people in Idaho who are concerned about future of the second amendment?
To anyone who pays at least marginal attention, it becomes obvious that the Israeli propaganda machine waits for lulls in news cycles before they attempt to terrify the west about supposedly rogue nations like Iran. Predictably, we’re now getting bombarded with existential concerns about Iran failing to honor their nuclear technology restrictions and so forth. I would applaud any American president, even a buffoon like Trump or a vegetable puppet like Biden, if just once they told Israel that they had our implicit blessings to engage in whatever war they wanted, except they’d do it completely alone and with zero US support (beyond those…uhh…loan guarantees we give them).
Saker nails exactly what these riots and protests are all about: ousting Trump. Of course, I dare not say this out loud to too many of my friends because this will imply I’m a member of one of the apparently numerous and highly populated American Neo-Nazi organizations. Evidence for the all-about-ousting-Trump hypothesis will emerge within a few months after the 2020 election. If Schmo Biden wins, you’ll see business as usual just as it was conducted during Obama’s reign. The media will seek to minimize controversy for a Democrat president and will cease giving air time to BLM, Antifa, and company, thence starving them of the critical mass anger required for any substantive changes in policing, economic opportunities for supposedly disadvantaged blacks, and so forth. The only difference from Trump will be social justice posturing and occasional legislation designed to fail and blame on Republicans in preparation for 2024.
“but whites are increasingly seeing the SAT as a game they are destined to lose at to Asians.”
And the evidence for this is…what?
Is that you Trump?
Nice fluff piece. China is fucked. Demographically, economically and militarily.
“Is that you Trump?
You’re new around these here parts…aren’t you boy?”
He must be. He hasn’t gotten the message that a faithful Unz contributor is expected to happily suck on Chinese Communist Party peckers and say “ahhh…thank you!” after they blow their loads in his face.
At least over at ZeroHedge they have the decency to shill for Russia only implicitly via an absence of the mockery and scrutiny they heap upon other powerful nations. You won’t see articles that outright claim the superiority of Russian politics and culture. Here at Unz they’re not content with such a passive approach. At Unz you get treated to a laughably transparent China shill piece at a frequency of ~2.5/week.
Pepe Escobar? Yeah right. More like Xinzhong Dong.
Lots of truth to this piece, but for the most part it’s seductive bullshit. There are indeed a great many ways Americans fool themselves into thinking they live in a “free ” society unlike those poor oppressed slobs in China. But the fact is, in the USA you have hundreds of thousands of enraged assholes on Twitter and the like openly calling the president a lying sack of shit. Now just how long do you think any Chinese citizen would last doing that before their Ministry of State Security arranged to have a bullet put in his head? Three hours? That alone is proof you’re fooling yourself if you think these parallels are absolute, or that China is any place you’d want to belch out whatever anti-government thoughts that come a rumblin’ into your head. Yes yes, it makes for amusing conversation and all, but hardly to be taken that seriously. And what’s with this site and all the communist party blowjobs the contributors are dishing out these days?
OMFG,
just how long do you think any Chinese citizen would last doing that before their Ministry of State Security arranged to have a bullet put in his head?

Amen! Been noticing that too.

How much time have you spent reading Chinese social media? Not a lot. I'll be bound!

Given the relatively vast number of white people that are brutally murdered by black men lacking even the slightest trace of righteous motivation – crimes that are effectively ignored by the MSM – why should I give a damn about the death of Ahmaud Arbery? Why should I, a white male, care one bit even if the two white males were looking for an excuse to shoot him? I certainly don’t condone it if that were the case. At one point earlier in my life I might have thought Arbery’s death tragic, even if his jogging story was phony and it was just another crime spree day for him. Now I couldn’t care less. It’s obvious that this is the media’s new Trayvon Martin. MSM propaganda has it that black men receive disproportionate condemnation and punishment for every little thing they do, but what I see is exactly the opposite. Any time a black man is killed by white males, or even harassed by “white Hispanics” (like the new cause celebre involving Bronx police and an “innocent” black bystander), that black man has his case splashed across the headlines in every major news media source and is given more the benefit of doubt than he usually deserves. In contrast, consider the cases of white men and women murdered by black men like…well, just go ahead and read any piece by Paul Kersey. Whether Arbery deserved it, or was asking for it, or died unjustly at the end of white racist gun barrels, I just do not care. I won’t care until the MSM treats all similar murders involving victims of all races with equal empathy, outrage, and scrutiny.
