Vijay Prashad: US threatens China because China threatens US hegemony
Become a Useful Idiot for extended interviews and bonus content at http://usefulidiots.substack.com
“The jaws of Hell have opened wide.”
Historian and author Vijay Prashad is worried about the next war that the US will provoke. Nukes in Ukraine, a new missile crisis in Taiwan, destabilizing sovereign South American nations, asserting control in Africa. All in the name of US hegemony.
He focuses in on China: what if Xi Jinping flew to Guam like Nancy Pelosi flew to Taiwan? What would the US do?
There are 29 US military bases in Africa. How many Chinese military bases are there? None.
The US is expanding NATO to bypass the UN treaty in an attempt to rule the world. Is China to blame?
Prashad, who has a new book co-authored by Noam Chomsky, analyzes the US’s increasingly dictatorial role in the world from Russia to China to Cuba to South America:
Colombia just elected a new left president. One of Gustavo Petro’s first moves was to call for an end to the US-led, so-called “war on drugs.”
Subscribe for the extended episode to hear Vijay discuss all of that, plus how capitalism has destroyed the ability of people to control their own lives; the nonsensical decision to place Cuba on the state sponsor of terrorism list; and why Jordan Peterson needs a hug.
It’s all this, and more, on this week’s episode of Useful Idiots. Check it out.
