perhaps so

2021-01-20 16:03:40 UTC  

i shall be cautiously hopeful, but blinken would probably only have certain "soft" policies that are approved by biden & china if he wants to last long

2021-01-20 16:04:25 UTC  

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. Trump did a pretty good job.

2021-01-20 16:04:31 UTC  

In practice, this probably means genocide conviction, sanctions against IP theft, etc.

Trump's trade war was a complete mess

2021-01-20 16:05:14 UTC  

i'll take what i get, but i'm not trusting blinken. imo trump wasn't as tough as china as he could, but something is better than nothing

2021-01-20 16:06:23 UTC  

Trump was the best on China then most presidents in the past. The last thing we need is some softy.

2021-01-20 16:07:44 UTC  

@Benjamin. Do you think the trade war was successful?

2021-01-20 16:09:03 UTC  

personally? i'm not sure because i've mixed info on this. but i support any effort against china

2021-01-20 16:09:18 UTC  

Exactly.

2021-01-20 16:10:17 UTC  

Well then you get a nasty paradox. Trump's America First doctrine and blatant isolationism meant we lose our allies who could aid us in this fight. Then, China can sneak their way into smaller European and Asian countries we used to be helping

2021-01-20 16:11:15 UTC  

we're in a rock and a hard place anyway tbh

2021-01-20 16:11:43 UTC  

if we don't go against china, we will keep be hollowed out slowly and slowly. if we go against china, we pissed off allies

2021-01-20 16:12:42 UTC  

so it depends on each person. some thinks it's better to die slow but still keep allies, others think it's better to put a stop to the bs consequences be damned

2021-01-20 16:39:47 UTC  

we dont need allies <:GoldenKek:797863764002209812> <:GoldenKek:797863764002209812>... why di3 a sl0w p@inful d3ath instead of going down fighting with a chance to win. look at the h0ng k0ng pr0t3st3rs

2021-01-20 16:59:50 UTC  

My teacher was just making us watch the *”inauguration”*. I said in chat that my connection was acting up, and I may be cut from the call.
Waited for a bit, took notes of what was happening.
And left. C:

2021-01-20 17:01:37 UTC  

Nice.

2021-01-20 17:17:58 UTC  

I don't know much about america but I know that China is using debt to get other countries to "join them" they are also investing in many african nations as a political tool. This could be good to african nations because they are growing the economy but they are also being heavily dependent on china for trade. It's worth noting that it's unclear if china will just screw them over a couple years since they care more about investing in poorer countries for politcal reasons

2021-01-20 17:20:36 UTC  

Anyone watching the inauguration??? They showed a shot of berny sanders sleeping while Biden was speaking lmao

2021-01-20 17:20:47 UTC  

nah

2021-01-20 17:22:25 UTC  

Shouldn't we be hoping for Biden to be a good president?

2021-01-20 17:22:58 UTC  

Hoping? Yes. Expecting? No.

2021-01-20 17:23:33 UTC  

I just posted “not my president” in a r/politics post. Time to say goodbye to karma 😂

2021-01-20 17:24:08 UTC  

It's like having a large Doberman running at you barking and growling. You hope he's just playing, but you really don't expect him to be.
