BALLOON

HOW CHINA WON THE
GREAT BALLOON FIASCO

Sometimes I think America's adversaries in the
world know the country better than it knows
itself. Here's why I think that way.

China floats a balloon over the US, the
espionage value of which is highly question-
able. But they do it because they know that the
American media, controlled for the most part,
by conservatives, would use the incident to
batter the Biden administration and suck up
most of the airtime.

They also know that America is doing
pretty well economically and they don’t want
that sinking in with the world community.

So the parasitic media plays it up big. The
stories are pumping. The memes are flying.
The Republicans are screaming. Armageddon
is coming. Armageddon is coming. WWIII blah,
blah, blah.

And while the media and the politicos are out
there yakking this up to beat hell, guess what
gets almost totally ignored. The accomplish-
ments to date of the Biden government, which
rich conservatves in that country are opposed
to because it will utimately mean they'll be
coughing up more tax and worker money.

So now the Chinese government is sitting
back having a good old chuckle at all of this
because, to them, keeping the country off
balance and squabbling over bullshit stuff was
the actual goal in the first place.

Americans have to wake up and start digging
a little deeper to find the truth. Because China
has their number, and it knows the
American public, for the most part,
are profoundly malleable.
