Nah, if China's going to arm Russia, conquer Taiwan, take over the South China Sea, steal all our tech, and build up its military with the explicitly stated purpose of fighting us, then they are in a Cold War mentality and there's nothing we can do to stop that.
Daniel Larson 蓝丹烨 @daniel_s_larson
the U.S should get out of the Cold War mentality- China is a really diverse place with lot's of regional variation. Although it is hard to reconcile with the central government- there is still plenty of opportunity for commerce between the two countries.

You can’t effectively reckon with the past if you don’t believe in the future.
If you rightly think that Abu Ghraib was horrible, you should have something to say about the countless Abu Ghraibs that Russia has created, not turn away and shrug.

🧵 Noah has a good piece here: China directly arming Russia changes not just the complexion of this war but the broader geopolitical landscape in ways we probably can’t fully grasp yet.
In the short-term it almost certainly moves the EU into the “anti-China” camp https://t.co/5hAmuEzCye

China's decision to send lethal aid to Russia is ominous for several reasons.
First, it means the Ukraine war is now a true proxy war - and one that the West is ill-equipped to win.
Second, it means China's ambitions aren't really on pause.

New: Twitter told employees that Slack was down for "routine maintenance." That's a lie — the company hasn't paid its bill. But weirder still, Slack didn't shut down Twitter's instance. Someone at Twitter manually shut off access:
