The US is busying fighting over stupid things… The real battle is keeping up with China and we are failing at every turn.

Everyone’s praising China here. If the US were operating solar factories with slave like conditions and destroying natural habitats to mine the natural resources, these same people would be roasting the US.

#Meanwhile the US is descending into fascism, banning climate science and medical research, abducting US citizens and disappearing them, redrawing congressional maps to rig elections, starting trade wars with allies, capitulating to dictators, selling merchandise out of the White House, forcing religion into public schools, activating the military domestically against citizens, and oh yeah joking about installing a dictator and never having democratic elections again.
Cool
