    Good. One of the few accidental wins of the Trump administration.

      Scaring scientists away is a good thing? Or do you mean that’s more scientists for the rest of the world? Or are you simply a bigot implying that chinese-descent scientists surely are spies? So many interpretations possible :)

        They’re happy about US decline because it means less power to murder people abroad

          If that is the idea then I’m behind it! Unfortunately too many bigots out there for me to assume that.

            Fair enough, if I hadn’t seen that user comment before I might have been unable to tell too

            This is lemmy.ml.
            Chances are high that يا ليتني means that Chinese-Americans are wising up
            on what the US currently stands for.

            It would have been better if they called for separatism though.

        Almost everyone else understood what I meant. But I could have phrased it better, sorry.

        Weakening the US is the good thing and Trump’s accidental win. It goes without saying that Sinophobia and other forms of racism and bigotry is not a good thing.
