The Spin
Establishment-critical narrative
America has once again shown reluctance to accept that its hegemony has come to an end. This so-called intelligence report, which is merely a political stunt and a piece of disinformation, reveals that its leaders can't dissociate the international order from their own declining country. Instead of pointing fingers at other countries, the US should focus on its own problems.
Pro-establishment narrative
China and its axis of authoritarian allies and rogue states — including Iran, North Korea, and Russia — have joined efforts to undermine the rules-based world order, capturing international institutions as the West remains distracted by its divisions. Now, it's time for liberal democracies to take action to address this epoch-defining challenge before it's too late.
