I’m not sure these people who believe this stuff are in positions of power though. I would imagine the US ruling class are more acutely aware of what is really going on.
On the other hand, some of their actions only make sense if they believe their own bullshit, so I really have no idea.
Being given access to accurate intel is no guarantee that they actually leverage it to form their own views.
There are anecdotes of US officials using mainstream media to spoonfeed them their positions on issues as they can’t be assed to do anything resembling actual work.
There are liberals who vote and then there are liberals who are elected or own significant capital and actually make decisions. Some of them even have assets that are very dependent on the Chinese economy, company stocks in various exported consumer goods and technology. I doubt they are consuming their own propaganda with respect to China.
It’s generally a good thing that libs think China is collapsing since that means US will continue to underestimate China and make strategic mistakes.

All thanks to the service of comrades like Gordon Chang, working tirelessly for their motherland.
Pretty funny that all the self-hating liberals they funded ended up tricking their handlers themselves lol.
In their fanatic bid to become honorary aryans they instead became the strategic fool you agency. 🐶

I actually think they are given the incoherent policy US has towards China.
