It’s actually unusual that China isn’t far in front of the West. Historically, they have led the world in major military and intellectual advances. As I’m sure they see it, they are simply re asserting their previous dominance.

If the world has changed enough, the West (as it did in 1939) will stand up for itself and say ‘enough’. If not, we need acquiesce and accept our position subordinate to China before too much damage is done. Are we woke or are we not?
