There is Guam, Puerto Rico n Marshal Is. Why are you a hypocrite? Why silence on their freedom to be independent? Why are you so self-righteous to the point of living under a bubble? Or living under a rock? Go to the Red Indian reservations, n hear how much they detest the US govt for stealing their land. Do you know why Red Indians called it "White man speaks with forked tongue?" Ask Blacks why they are still been discriminated and have no freedom despite "slavery" had ended.

[@HeresMyView]

@comment sense , you still live under a rock. The US economy is in decline n suffers from faded glory. Hyper inflation has made the cost of living unbearable. Even baby formula is in shortage. Nobody is talking about free ride except free loader like you. Hope you wake up. Meanwhile, politicians from Repubs n Democrats gang up to squeeze people like you to bear the financial hardships. They are laughing all the way to the bank. The joke is on you. Assuming you're middle class, they're coming after you. They are done with Red Indians and Blacks.

More important is the respect for different political systems and ideologies. When China was poor and backward and the world’s factory for cheap and affordable consumer goods, there was no issue with its system of government then. Now that China has progressed beyond anyone’s expectations to be the 2nd biggest economy in the world after the U.S, it has become an issue even though it is now a socialist state. Back then the Chinese people had to defect or flee to another country to seek asylum. Today and for the last 20 years or so, Chinese citizens are free to travel overseas for their vacations. That is how far they have come.

It goes to show the character of this great man. That he is loyal to a fault like Mao, just like all great men are. That he treasures true friendship, unlike those in the White House. Such loyalty sits well with Putin that just been manifested in the joint flypast thru the sea of Japan to give Biden a refreshing jolt to his aging heart,and to Japan to remind it of its place now , and in its past, and of the blood debt which it can trigger on the pay back time.

I experienced the kindness and grace of an American family who sat at the next table in a Californian cafe near Christmas 1976. They made sure that I was not ignored and was properly served as I was alone and obviously far away from my home in Singapore. I still meet very friendly folks during my occasional visits there. I hope the US and China will see each other as friendly superpowers for the sake of the rest of the world.

@comment sense LoL China is already more than a match for USA. The problem is, USA just wont allow another country to surpass it in terms of power, economy and military. You guys even have that Monroe Doctrine which does not allow another country to surpass your country. China in many ways have already surpassed the US but your leaders just have a hard time accepting that fact. Earning respect is one thing but not wanting to give it due to your own hubris and arrogance is another.
