China, US heading for 'conflict and confrontation,' foreign minister warns

[Checkerboard Strangler]

Western countries excel in innovation and leadership but don't want to do all the dirty work and back-breaking labor.

Sorry but I respectfully disagree.
The entire Midwest was BUILT ON precisely that.
There is a reason shows like "Dirty Jobs" have high ratings.

Oh and, one more thing....manufacturing semiconductor microprocessors is not dirty and back-breaking labor.

Yeah, I do read newspapers but it is still a misuse of the historical term first coined by W. Wilson and then pushed into full bloom by Harding, Lindbergh and the Klan.
You seem to be doing a kind of shadow diversion of domestic investment into notions of white supremacy and ultra-nationalism and it doesn't make sense.
And again, there is nothing wrong with investing in more domestic manufacturing, unless we want to cheer for America to fail.
Since you're Canadian I wouldn't dream of demanding that you cheer for America however I would never equate Trudeau promoting Canadian manufacturing as a form of
fascist supernationalism.

That's like saying that an insurrection wasn't an insurrection.
The meaning of some words change over time but "America First" is still an ultranationalist white supremacy stance, Jim Crow is still physical and violent repression of black rights, and manufacture of consent is still and always shall be the end goal of propaganda.

Apparently, the GOP in Utah just loves China.

Amid strained US ties, China finds unlikely friend in Utah

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — China’s global campaign to win friends and influence policy has blossomed in a surprising place: Utah, a deeply religious and conservative state with few obvious ties to the world’s most powerful communist country.
