Why on earth do you think the US would ally with China?

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Spheres of influence. "The western hemisphere is ours"

The US takes "the western hemisphere", Russia takes Europe, China takes Asia

Everyone who downvoted is ignorant of this or has a different definition of alliance. Alliances are not always officially stated

Not to mention China's support, through bots and trolls on social media, for far-right politicians in Europe, including the recently cancelled and re-held Romanian presidential election where Calin Georgescu, some random MAGA-aligned Romanian politician essentially went #1 on TikTok and TikTok "didn't notice"

Also, Russia and China are allies and the US and Russia are allies

China does not support Ukraine. The US does not support Ukraine. China. Is. Not. Our. Friend. Even the map we're looking at implies China is not on the EU/Mexico/Canada side.

The more I look at those downvotes the more perplexed I am. I guess I was too literal and sensationalist in my initial statement and people reacted to that. Good for them.

EDIT: I hope I'm not coming off as a ranting asshole. Needless to say, my gears have been ground

You went and pissed on their hypothetical where the US is weak. Of course they are to downvote you. They just wanted a lil circlejerk.
