I like China. I want their people to feel loved and respected. The memorial lights were beautiful yet they seemed closer to Oriental than to USA tradition. Might have been better to have more lights that represent the diversity of all nations. I want us to represent peace yet not bow in submission to any nation. A nod as a sign of respect I like and can see the benefit over handshakes. Kneeling or bowing to other nations seems to have more connotations.
A lot of people trying to do something nice I appreciate. Just with everything else going on this seemed a bit strange. Further it might have an opposite effect of saying these deaths are the responsibility of China. I don’t think it is fair to blame a virus on one nation. In a hurricane we can support each other or point fingers. Support is my choice though I know I fall short at times.
100 years from now the oppression of both The United States and China will be more visible. The advances in technology if used properly will help us make both systems better for all people. The advanced civilizations will look back at all of us and will see what we got wrong and what we got right. I would like those future generations to be able to be proud that we turned the tide against oppression and mercilessness. We found a way to love and care for all people in society. My guess is there are somethings I got right, somethings I got wrong, and somethings I couldn’t for see. I would like to say we made great advances in technology to help make each other’s lives better. My current impression is there is a lot out there currently designed to make us miserable. We can do better for future generations. A phone should be a tool for support and to keep people connected. Not to run people off cliffs.
