Here is an archive copy for those that don't want to support NYT, https://archive.is/HnZ1T

The article lost all credibility at this line: "...an international order, led by the United States, that is generally guided by principles of democracy, respect for human rights and adherence to rule of law." Absolute joke.

China can eat a giant bag of dicks. Yes, the USA is rotten to the core and likely had a hand in funding the Wuhan lab that leaked the virus that is now wreaking havoc on the world, but at least they pay lip service to certain principles unless your name is Julian Assange. I'd prefer tyranny that at least has the decency to be covert.

"I'd prefer tyranny that at least has the decency to be covert."

Fuck that. If you are going to try to rob and rape my family, be open about it. Be as open about it as possible.

Tyranny of any kind should not be suffered by human beings.

Well yes, obviously. But what are you, or what is anyone going to do about it?

Broken system run by the elites, for the elites.

Don't be a defeatist.

Ah yes, typical pathetic American, would rather live in the illusion of having your problems solved than reality, then you wonder why you're losing. American conservatives are especially pathetic and live under the delusion that having a piece of paper that says you have rights is more important than the people and systems that are responsible for enforcing the laws. I'll enjoy watching your kind getting annihilated over the next decade.

Laws are ideally a reflection of the morals and the culture of a people. The Constitution was never a perfect document but it was a good document and it was a reflection the people of America for along time. America isnt run by Americans anymore. The constitution does not reflect the values of the people that control america. Its just an inconvenience that they can subvert with legal loopholes.

THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT AND THE CHINESE DICTATORSHIP ARE BOTH OF THE SAME. THE US GOVERNMENT IS INFACT MORE DANGEROUS, BECAUSE IT DOES MEDDLE. IM BRAZILIAN, AND BIDEN HAS PROMISSED SANCTIONS ON BRAZIL, BECAUSE OF BOLSONAROS MISTREAT OF THE AMAZON, WHILE THERE IS NOTHNG GOING ON IN THE AMAZON.. THUS, THE WEST IS MORE DANGEROUS, BECAUSE IT USES THE MEDIA TO CREATE ENEMIES THAT ARE NOT EVEN GUILTY OF THE ACCUSATIONS.

Calm down with the Caps Lock, are you failing to grasp air?

The senile dipshit Biden and all the other leaders can take up in the arse. One century ago they didn't care much about deforestation when the Rubber Booms came, in fact they profitted highly from it. The so called "developed" nations think they're entitled of our resources and land, they know all the potential our forests have and they wanna strip them away from us. The indigenous know the cure for many illnesses and who knows how many more are left to be found.

To hell with their sanctions. The land is ours.

The US government is a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The Trump administration is not the Biden administration. Only one is dangerous. We are sorry that Biden is raping your country, but there's nothing we can do about the "most popular president evarrrrr". The republic has fallen.

Failing NY Times

Nope

Btw they've played a big part in insuring that this happens.

Hahaha. Too late China. Another race beat you to that. They control all the money on the planet and they have leverage over every goverment on Earth.

Who founded the Chinese Communist Party, China? Not Chinese people.
