I don't think that there's any doubt about the anti-China agenda. I just don't think that there's any grand plan or really any long term thinking at all. Instead, the US is using tried and true tactics they've honed over the last few decades, and these tactics have largely fallen flat.
Just look at all the "Pivots to Asia" that have been attempted from back in the Obama days to what's happening now. And then look at all the China experts and think tanks and policy makers that shape American policy - how many of them even seem to realize what China is.
Now, is this always going to be the case? Probably not, but the US is going to need some serious rethinking about how they think about geopolitics and about long term strategy before it improves for them.
