#1 Hanson's conclusion:

All these implosions are not just shocking but surreal. Why are our government, corporations, and popular culture colluding in mass suicide — to the delight of our enemies like Communist China?

Don't you know, Vic? All the politicians and corporations are in bed with the CCP. All of this shit is coming from China, bought and paid for by the Chinese Communist Party with profits they've made from selling their plastic crap to us.

#2 The old Soviets used to wage psychological war against us and I think sometimes they were quite clever. But nothing like the Chinese. The Chinese have money and millions more people who can be dedicated to the project and they are all working diligently on it. They have computers and the Internet that they can use against us. They have our corporate media in their pocket pumping a toxic stream of propaganda into our homes 24/7.

Disney won't stop and neither will the others. They can't. They're addicted to the money they get from China.

You do business with a hostile, totalitarian dictatorship and then you act all surprised and butt hurt when you find out all the subtle little ways they've been trying to destroy us. But they hate us so what the fuck did you expect?

#4 Blaming the Chinese? Uh, seriously?

We have quite enough domestic enemies without blaming the slants. This isn't happening because of them. Of course, instead of getting angry at our domestic enemies, the deep state would like very much if you got angry with China instead. After all, they're chomping at the bit to start yet another war.

#5 Follow the money, Harcourt. It's that simple.

#6 Is this guy a Chinese troll? Why do you think all the donk politicians and most of the Republicans vilify Russia but never say squat about the far more dangerous Chinese? China has money, Russia doesn't. Follow the money, not just Biden's but all of them. The corporations too. All that business they do with the Chinese would come to a screeching halt if they didn't toe the Chinese mark. They can't afford that.

We don't say "slants" here. We say "angles of repose".

Don't worry. We have plenty enough anger to go around.

#10 Here's what I'm talking about. No good reason for them to do it but the did anyway. Why? Bad reasons.
