The United States pays interest on approximately $850 billion in debt held by the People’s Republic of China. China, however, is currently in default on its sovereign debt held by American bondholders.

    Because “family values” in US discourse is usually code for homophobia and sexism, while “anti-communism” is usually just racism, classism and xenophobia.

      Yeah saying “usually” and assuming a US discourse while not explaining what is wrong with a traditional family value and anti communism is not what I expected. Should have know that people only think in USA while in their “America bad” mind state. My bad.

      Thing is, ironically, the only people whom have treated me and my people with racism, classism and xenophobia are leftists, be from Europe or north America. Weird.

        What is your ethnicity if I may ask? Because the anti communism bit does vary per society somewhat, but “traditional family values” are usually a far more constant in discouraging a wide variety of perfectly fine things.
