Chinese state media on Wednesday asserted that federalism, multi-party democracy, and respect for individual privacy would make it impossible for the United States to defeat the Wuhan coronavirus, since Washington cannot dictate top-down solutions for the entire country or micro-monitor American citizens the way Beijing does.
The Global Times made the usual effort to stir up partisan divisions and blame the U.S. for trying to “pass the buck to China” instead of agreeing to forget where the coronavirus came from before getting to the meat of its argument, which was that Americans are paying a steep price for not being obedient drones governed by an absolute central authority:
The epidemic fight must be a people’s war, but the Americans have not been fully mobilized to fight the coronavirus with science. It has taken a long and bumpy road for Americans to wear masks despite being such a simple thing. Only very recently were White House staffers ordered to wear masks. However, Washington’s attempt to politically mobilize the society hasn’t stopped for a moment. It’s working every minute to make supporting forced resumption of work a political correctness. The US government keeps telling its people not to be afraid of the epidemic, to go back to work and smear China.
How can such a US defeat the virus? The number of deaths in the country has exceeded 82,000, and will soon surpass the iconic mark of 100,000. But the US hasn’t formed a unified fight against the epidemic within the country, nor is there a consistent strategy. The last round of social distancing measures only alleviated the epidemic. The US rushed to resume work and production without establishing a strong capability to track the infected.

Whether we can "defeat" the virus or not, we will defeat China in a "Whole Nation" manner.
How can you have a propaganda war when the antagonist isn’t credible and their targets aren’t as dumb or easily misled as the CCP seems to believe?
Death to chicom marxist scum
I will not submiy
Chinese propaganda. “You will die if you don’t embrace totalitarianism.”
They regard this as a weakness. We regard it as a strength.
In a given short term, they may prevail in one aspect or another.
In the long term, we will prevail...if the Left doesn’t destroy us first...
They sound exactly like the democrats.
F the CCP!!!
Meanwhile, China keeps locking down new cities. They are not beating the pandemic, either.
Smear China? You mean YOU frigging assholes, who intentionally inflicted this nightmare upon the world?
It would be SOOOOO nice to see your country turned into one giant, glassy rice paddy.
“How can you have a propaganda war when the antagonist isn’t credible and their targets aren’t as dumb or easily misled as the CCP seems to believe?”
Think: Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff and Maxine Waters, and all their voters and media minions.
Then reconsider your question.
This statement makes the virus seem intentional...part of an effort by the Chinese to prove that centralized control (i.e., communism) is superior to federalism (representative government).
Better dead than Red.
I look forward to the merciless evisceration of China’s economy in Trump’s second term.
They are no more Communist than the man in the moon.
They are prototypical Fascists.
Hell, they are perfecting Fascism.
And no less dangerous than Nazi Germany. An existential enemy.
My masks say:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THANKS
CHINA
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everybody should write that on their masks.
Democrats ARE blood brothers to the Chicoms
The US can easily defeat China into the Stone Age.
We also don’t throw people who are still alive into crematoriums. Ass clowns!
