Hmmmm. I always thought that you were more sensible that the loony-left idiots in this forum. I guess I was wrong.
Again, if your tendency as an ideologue is to assign false straw man motivations to anyone who disagrees with you, you will miss their real motivation and thus they will seem to lack intelligence and logic. Yes, your straw man theories are illogical and stupid. That does not mean the real motivations and deeds of Asian governments or liberals are. You will only convince those already in your bubble. To those outside your bubble, the bubble will be painfully obvious. You might try dealing with the real motivations of the CCP, the other Asian governments, the liberals politicians, etc...
Of course, to understand these, you would have to study history with your blinders off. This is generally rare. Once one has immersed oneself in an ideological view of the world, it takes something like an 1864 Atlanta or a 1945 Berlin or Hiroshima for someone truly dedicated to a dated perspective to actually change it. COVID doesn't seem to do it for a lot of ideologues. The dead are only a number. They are not as in your face as a burned out city. It is harder to see that an ideology has become dated, that it is time for a 4T and a replacement.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
