This article appeared in my feed just above another article about how China has the world's first operational thorium reactor. Meanwhile, the US is about to fight a civil war over whether vaccination causes measles and stripping away the last of our social programs in order to get our wealthiest people another 2% subsidy.

China and Russia worked very hard to get these rich stupid people in power.

It really started in 2016 when US security agencies released a joint report showing Russia was spreading misinformation to help Trump win the election.

Surprisingly, the "liberal tears compilations" and "something about an email server people didn't understand wasn't actually illegal" actually worked and drowned out the warnings from our security agencies.

I don't think China will be any better of a world leader tbh.

I see humanity's future as a boot stepping on a human face forever, unless humanity globally rejects kings, oligarchs, and dictators.
