Interesting article, and you can see reflections of today's US in the then popular assessment of Qing China:

Even after the destruction of Chinese sea power and the occupation of Corea by Japanese troops, the danger threatening the Celestial Empire itself was not realized in Europe. China, it was widely and confidently asserted, could absorb Japanese armies as she would a duststorm. They must simply melt away, leaving their island homes depopulated.

Besides Russia now is not China back in the 70s and Russia now is not in a shaky relationship with China like China was with USSR back then, the more pressing issue with the tweet is that... does VR not know both Xi and Putin have internet access and have just learnt his game plan? Did Nixon telegraph Mao and Brezhnev his plan before visiting China in 72? Lol

Yea, literal border skirmishes with firearms that would make Ladakh look like a toddler brawl at a playground were happening along the Chinese-Soviet border when Nixon courted Mao.
