If we can’t compete intellectually with China, let’s just post a “Going Out Of Business” sign for America.
What are we really afraid of? Them or us?
Ideas matter most.
Yes. This.

Yup, ideas do.
At least China is making some use of its vaunted philosophy by name. Why can’t the USA talk about gospel? Well actually it can. It just shouldn’t be using its government to do that. This was ruled out by constitutional bargain. But what’s wrong with churches and their associated universities. Has the cat got their tongue?
Do you believe American universities are beacons of philosophical and political equality?
