But rather... "," The most pressing threat to the United States is not the Chinese, the British, the economy, and the United States. "
On August 10th, the website of the South China Morning Post in Hong Kong published an article titled "The threat of the United States and Britain to oneself far exceeds that of China to them", written by columnist Lu Gang. The article excerpt is as follows:
A particularly bad sign today is that for a long time, Western countries have not recognized internal corruption and are more inclined to condemn external threats, which is at best a distracting delusion.
Taking the UK as an example, I tend to believe that China is actually being used to distract attention, as the UK economy and society will slide towards developing countries in the next 20 years.
According to the latest analysis by the London based National Institute for Economic and Social Studies, it is difficult for the UK's economy to achieve growth in the next five years due to the government's failure to achieve the goal of "leveling" the economic levels of various regions across the country and reducing inequality.
The Conservative government's spending continues to exceed income, thereby limiting economic growth and limiting its ability to promote consumption and investment through tax cuts and other stimulus measures.
On May 6th, people participated in a protest in New York, USA.
In terms of per capita level and productivity, the UK is now even poorer than Mississippi, the poorest state in the United States.
If I were British, I wouldn't be enemies with China, especially after Brexit. On the contrary, I would bet on trading with it. However, if some British experts and politicians assume that Chinese made electric vehicles will eavesdrop on British citizens, then there is really no way to do business.
Speaking of the United States. For the United States, it is more about its entire "democratic system", along with Donald Trump, being put on trial rather than being in economic trouble.

The United States will become increasingly diverse in race, but in politics, power will be concentrated in the hands of white people.
Currently, there is an unprecedented institutionalized inequality. Up to a quarter of Americans cannot afford medical expenses. The average life expectancy in the United States currently lags behind that of 56 other countries.
The most fundamental policy issues cannot be debated rationally without sparking large-scale conflicts, including addressing climate change, abortion, tax cuts/increases, etc.
Things are more likely to develop in this direction: before Americans shoot at Chinese people, they will first shoot at their American compatriots and political leaders.
The most pressing threat to the United States is the Americans, not the Chinese.
It looks like the West is at war with China. However, if Britain and the United States either wake up from imperial illusions or fall off cliffs, and if people simply ignore them, the "China threat" will magically disappear, because magicians can no longer perform magic.
