Wang Yi: China will not, and cannot, be another U.S.

Again I am calling Wang an idiot. I sincerely want a China-US alliance, but I am not under the delusion that such an alliance is possible without identifying an explicit enemy which this alliance is purposed to destroy, yet this identification is precisely what Wang disparages as "binary thinking" (more accurately, dualistic thinking):

Yet how can you genuinely ally with a country that believes in dualism without believing in dualism yourself? Successfully allying with the US requires wholeheartedly embracing dualism but building a narrative that places both countries on the same side of the duality and the enemy on the opposite side.
