One of the strangest things in the modern world is the utter denial of the evils of communism, despite the copious evidence to the contrary.
We continue to live in a world with a number of existential risks which have come out of communism.
North Korea exists because the CCP made them and continue to support them. Equally the Ukraine war is totally predicted on CCP support. The Russian mess is a direct result of the break down of the USSR...
And of course we can see in countries like Venezuela and Zimbabwe how ordinary people's lives have been destroyed by this ideology, only the latest victims of a failed ideology which has killed 100's of millions of people.
It's fashionable now to whine and moan about the perceived evils of democratic, capitalist countries but so much of seems to be a product of extremely spoiled people who simply have no idea how bad things can be.

Of all Kissinger's crimes, bringing in the CCP (emphatically: not the Chinese state, rather the awful CCP govt) out from the cold was easily the worst, and possibly the biggest blunder in human history.
It legitimised and empowered the communist govt, subjecting the Chinese people to an indefinite future of oppression and the world to its whims, the extent of which we are still yet to see play out.
Communism is an evil that needs to be shunned, not embraced, and sadly (and rather ironically) money is why people turn a blind eye to what the CCP are now.
If Nixon/Kissinger had not done so, that govt would have eventually been overcome and both China and the world would have a far far brighter future. Alas.
