Trash may have provoked China into proclaiming its inevitable domination of the 21st century a couple decades earlier.
China ratchets up anti-US rhetoric with old war films and travel alerts
Beijing (CNN)China's latest message to its people: The United States is evil -- don't go there.
In recent days, the government has issued two new travel alerts for citizens heading to the US, while state media has ratcheted up its fiery anti-American rhetoric. It is latest indication of Beijing digging in for a prolonged trade war between the world's two largest economies.
The administration of US President Donald Trump raised tariffs from 10% to 25% on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods on May 10, and later threatened Chinese technology giant Huawei with a potential export ban.
In response, China increased tariffs on $60 billion worth of US goods last Saturday and has pledged to launch other "necessary countermeasures."
On Tuesday, China's Culture and Tourism Ministry warned its citizens of the risks of traveling to the US in an alert, citing frequent recent cases of "shooting, robbery and theft."
On the same day, the country's Foreign Ministry -- along with China's embassy and consulates in the US -- issued a security alert for Chinese citizens, alleging "repeated harassment" of Chinese nationals in the US by local law enforcement officials.
Both notices advise Chinese citizens to "raise safety awareness" in the US, and came shortly after an Education Ministry alert on Monday that warned Chinese students and scholars of the perils of studying in the US due to growing visa issues.
'Enemy of the world'
The new travel advice did not come in isolation.
China's ruling Communist Party has launched a trade war propaganda campaign, with recent efforts -- delivered via state media -- focusing on US "trade bullying" and "hegemony." In one noteworthy article, published Tuesday in party mouthpiece the People's Daily, the US was labeled the "enemy of the world."
While scathing anti-US editorials and commentaries quote everyone from French President Emmanuel Macron to 18th-century philosopher Adam Smith, state media has also begun to reference a very specific and bloody battle between US and Chinese forces during the 1950-53 Korean War.
Little known in the West, the 1952 battle of Triangle Hill -- or Shangganling in Chinese -- has been glorified in China for decades as a turning point in the war when the Chinese soldiers' endurance and sacrifice led to the "defeat" of American invaders.

And so it begins. You live in interesting times.

China's population will implode long before then, with widespread pollution and corruption dragging it down. The US, for all of our faults may still have a viable environment comparatively by then. We will both be too dead to find out though.
They are gona spread what?
The misery cult of Confucius?
spread their products and money to influence the planet. China is already all over Africa and S. America, investing, making friends, while hole AmeriKKKa is run by sick fat turd and a band of kakistocrats destroying govt, polluting the judiciary with political stooges, and curb stomping the non-oligarchy.
Their influence means less without an attractive culture to spread and promote.
You think the CCP is more competent than the US government?
you mean AmeriKKKa spreading junk food chains as American culture?
Why is predatory, militaristic, BigCorp American Empire voted the number one threat to world peace?
Yes, Chinese govt management of their country is obviously beating the out of the US oligarchy ing up America.
No, i mean having a postive image as a flexible country.
Brcause it's bot that that and was a flexible, attractive culture till recently.
In what way exactly?
"No, i mean having a postive image as a flexible country."
what's a flexible country?
"Brcause it's bot that that and was a flexible, attractive culture till recently." what?
USA also spreads Hollywood as American culture
Often in Europe the only dark face you see is the one plastered on movie posters
The mother ing USA with it's regionalism, love for mother ing guns, relatve sexual freedom compared to most of the world, homeschooling etc...
It was both flexible and an attractive culture till recently.
