I don't think this dude is an enriching source of information, especially on China. Paul Joseph Waston is literally on the same level of Sargon of Akkad, both are cultural/political commentator using specific sources of information to confirm their own biases. They often uses their imagination of China, which is only a reflection of what the US should be in their mind-- a monolithic, white, unicultural, block of conformity, to criticize what they believe to be the root cause of the decline of "western civilization"--progressive multiculturalism. Many people have their grievances against the specific form of multiculturalism that the western civlization adopted. But not so many are as adamant on zero-sum model of civilization and culture as they are.
The report that Paul is using as the basis of the video is such a US-centric view of what they believe the Chinese think of them. Sure, if you dig deep enough into the Chinese internet, you can find people believing that the US is strong because of its liberalism, rule of law, and free market capitalism. But of all these years of browsing the Chinese internet, I have yet to find the view that "United States used to be a strong society that the Chinese respected when it was unicultural, defined by the centrality of Anglo-Protestant culture at the core of American identity", especially when those same "racist Chinese" believe in liberlism and free market capitalism. Those two ideas just don't merge into the same group of people. Also, who the hell in a largely atheist China that have been a victim of Anglo aggression believes that Anglo-Protestant culture is the strength of US?
I still remember the video describing Chinese diaspora throughout the world as some sort of world domination scheme. Any person with any senblence of reality and a shred of knowledge of Chinese diaspora would know that Chinese diaspora have absolutely no cultural influence whatsoever in their host countries. And another video about Asian worshipping whites and wants white babies, so white boiiiiis, LOOK EAST!!! Paul isn't really that far from Akkad. Using an imagination of others to justify racism of us.
The full declassified report can be read here:
It basically calls China a "racist superpower" (LOL, projecting much?) and recommends the US using China's reluctance to accept mass immigration as a wedge issue with African, Middle-East etc. The jury is still out which system will win. America has many advantages in luring talent from all over the world. China is too insular for that. OTOH, it's not clear if having a country that is resembling the tower of babylon is an asset in the long run. Social cohesion is an underrated strength, and racial and cultural uniformity go hand in hand towards achieving that.

The difference is China is more of a race conservationist whereas the US is a genocider.
Westerners: wtf we love corruption and corporations nowNo they should obviously be good guys and role models for children. What sort of title is this?
Anyone knows if the Bohai Strait Tunnel will be approved? It seems a little too expensive to be worth it, though if it includes a railway it would reduce the HSR distance of the northeast to the south tremendously. Dalian and even Shenyang would become viable trips from Shanghai
No decision would be made for Bohai Strait Tunnel anytime soon.
