The Nixon Seminar with Peter Thiel
While I find just about everyone participating in this event contemptible (including Nixon) there are reasonable points made about the challenge that China presents.<p>A few of the potshots that are taken at &quot;the woke crowd&quot; bear commenting on since there is some extreme revisionism going on.<p>- The progressive left opposed China&#x27;s admission to the WTO citing human rights (Tibet in particular) and the effect on US workers<p>- The progressive left yelled and screamed about human rights for Uiygurs and supply chains in general for years.  The Trump administration ignored it for most of his term, not mentioning it until the pandemic and scapegoating China for &quot;Kung Flu&quot;.<p>- The progressive left would embrace a carbon border price in a heartbeat.  Pompeo&#x27;s former boss of course said the opposite, calling climate change a Chinese hoax.  Biden would do well to propose a border tax.
