Blinken went to China and pointed out that it is official US policy to recognize One China, saying "I reiterated the longstanding U.S. One China policy. That policy has not changed. It’s guided by the Taiwan Relations Act, the Three Joint Communiques, the Six Assurances."
OK well, the US is known for being agreement-incapable. Does he really think the Chinese are going to be impressed that the US is ignoring 10 previous agreements?
Does he think they don't know that the US media, Congress and the White House puts out so much "Taiwan is an independent country that we must support with weapons" propaganda that the average American has no idea of official US policy or previous agreements, and is convinced that China is going to invade Taiwan any day now?
Does he think that they don't know that Americans were convinced that Nancy Pelosi's trip to Taiwan was guaranteed to make China invade?
This reminds me of when they just came into the White House and had a meeting with China in Alaska. Official propaganda aimed at Americans tells us that the USA is a racist, genocidal country with systemic racism still in place. But that's only for internal use. To the rest of the world, the official propaganda is that the USA is a shining city on a hill, a beacon of human rights and democracy, and the only country worthy of writing and enforcing the rules of the ''rules-based world order''.
But when Blinken pulled the ''Shining City On A Hill" bs with China, they fired back with ''We don't have to listen to racists''.
What a shock to the Biden White House! The Chinese broke the rules-based order, which decrees that when the US makes an announcement, the world must accept it as the truth.
And they definitely don't get to use internal US propaganda against the State Dept! That is against the rules!
So that didn't go well.
