Well said, I think we really ought to evaluate our own excuses for inaction before looking to the other hemisphere.

To me Empanada's opinion is one that follows the "President Xi, fire when ready" meme.

And I'm not criticizing the meme, but there seems to be this trend amongst us in the western "left" to expect China to swoop in and take care of all our problems in a style akin only to the nostalgic "memories" we've developed of the Soviets.
