For sure. I had just never heard of the Wilson center and my first thought was “no way they named it after the president…?” and then it just got worse from there. Their framing of China as authoritarian is also honestly hilarious considering the current state of the US. And by hilarious I mean… well, probably shouldn’t continue on that
Oh yeah it’s an absolute riot. I find these think tanks often have interesting tid bits squirrelled away in the stuff they publish, but actually reading it is just painful. Somebody needs to train a language model to just extract useful information from western media and cut out the spin. 😂

I love how they added a little note now how they were totally not encouraging starting a proxy war with Russia. 😂
