    It’s something between Asian Peril and McCarthyism where communist china is trying to take over the world to make you share toothbrushes honestly. I don’t think the US needs much of a propaganda reasoning to act against China at this point

      This isn’t just against China, though, it’s a bunch of other countries in Asia as well.

      It’s like they’re just openly admitting “if you do business with China you’re with the enemy” now.

        I don’t think they’ve been very subtle about that one even before this
