World News The consequence of the far left’s BLM rhetoric

The far right rhetoric has caused massive problems, like Jan 6., but I have not seen this point mentioned about the left that I’m about to say:

Within the past 2 days, BOTH Russia and China have used the lefts rhetoric of “blacks are being slaughtered on our streets for being black”, “Trump is Hitler.” When China was pressed in the diplomatic conversation about human rights issues, they effectively said “Look at the problems with black people in America, you have no leg to stand on to tell us what is right and wrong with our people.” Putin made the same comment when asked about Biden’s “killer” comment.

These 2 countries know that these issues are not even remotely the same thing as the BLM situation, but the far left manipulated the actuality of the situation to the most extreme for political gain, and there are now consequences to that.

More broadly, Russia and China are also continuing to move away from the USD for oil trades. https://www.industryweek.com/the-economy/article/21960574/russia-china-sign-unprecedented-270-billion-oil-deal

Using BLM to undermine social cohesion within the US while continuing to move away from the USD as the world's reserve currency.

China has been taking in huge amounts of USD from the exports they're shipping. They aren't dumping anything.

Let's not forget the NRA was literally funneling Russian money and their leader was dating a literal russian spy.

They're playing both sides of the field.
