This is interesting on a number of fronts -- the strange elite consensus on a hardline on China and the lack of public buy-in. I have to say, the public seems wiser than the elite on this.https://twitter.com/dandrezner/status/1090955669581324290 …
I specifically said it wasn't just a USA thing and that global elites (which very much includes the elites in China) are committed to great power politics. Which is why this is going to be hard problem to solve.

Ah, I misunderstood 'global elites' here as meaning 'the Davos set' instead of 'the elite around the world.' That's a fair point.

(There is a globalized elite in China - but while they overlap with the Party elite who make the actual decisions, they're not the same - and the most powerful people are often the least globalized.)
