* Friendshoring is not deglobalization, but raher shift-globlization…

* Countries have no gratitude, and only remember what is convenient…

* William James sought for “the moral equivalent of war” to mobilize civilizational energies for good and progress; and a Cold War certainly counts…

* As Zhou Enlai said on similar issues: “it is too soon to tell”…

* We both hope that America and China will soon be friends again—but the balloon freakout makes us pessimistic…

* Hexapodia!!
