“I mean the right director could make a great film built on the premise that the virus that just killed its 600,000th American this week was the result of a terrible accident in the Wuhan Institute of Virology…. I think Steven Soderbergh or Michael Mann could pull it off.”
Michael Mann? Did he perhaps mean Michael Moore?
That’s hilarious coming from a lying sack of crap like Jonah who actively campaigned against the only politician who stood up for the US against China. So now he’s back to his little failure-theater act again, pretending he’s making some principled stand. No mean tweets!
Never forget that he and the entire gang of NeverTrump halfwits voted for this. This is on them. They can all go hang.
Yeah, what actions would Goldberg support? Making a movie, cultural warfare, isn’t a bad idea but he brings it up as something he knows wont happen and a movie certainly wont be enough.
Besides the Chinese version would have higher viewership and gross more money and in capitalism that means they win.
Really not that much we can do about capitalist doing what they have to make a dollar. Getting a dollar from every Chinese citizen that can afford it more than 2 from every American citizen.
Now we should hold our politicians and the news media to the fire for kowtowing to Xi and China.
In the end this is how we beat China unfortunately the Orange god made us a whole lot less attractive for such high achievers and never opened the borders for the poor HKers.
and never opened the borders for the poor HKers.
HK was doomed the day after the UK government agreed to pass it back over to the CCP. Many HK’ers saw this and real estate in Vancover, B.C. went through a boom. Then after about 10 years of inaction, people mistook that for the CCP being unwilling to enforce its will. Then along came 2019/2020.
But it had always been clear from the beginning the West would do nothing for HK.
OTOH, Taiwan with it’s hold on the world-wide semiconductor mfg. market is a whole ‘nuther story. Biden and Co. need to be very, very careful here. The Taiwanese picked this market to make themselves valuable to the West not simply by chance…
Apparently, Goldberg is paid by the word.
Bottom line: The US thirst for cheap stuff while simultaneously abandoning our manufacturing base resulted in a huge trade deficit with China. China agreed to help out by returning some of the money we sent them to effectively influence, or bribe if you prefer, our media, heavy industry, academic and major sports organizations and agriculture into becoming obsequious supporters of their program. Any country that would allow this type of colonization to happen is already well down the path to dissolution.
ADD: I was a physics grad student in the 80s. One graduate course I took was at USC – there were 20+ students in the class. Myself and a black gentleman were the only non asians in the class. A large majority were not US citizens.
There is a simple solution I practice whenever shopping. If it’s made in China and I don’t absolutely need it, I opt for another brand not made in China or I do without. Most Americans won’t or don’t exercise this option.
