The United States' East Asia policy is quite dangerous.
The average American is uninterested in East Asia, especially China. It's not that people like or dislike China, but rather that they are completely indifferent, as if China doesn't exist. This is actually quite normal. If you ask a Chinese person about South Africa—its economy, politics, culture, etc.—I dare say over 90% of Chinese people are indifferent to everything about South Africa.
However, the problem is that while the American public is so indifferent to everything about China, the American ruling class is deeply involved in the Chinese Civil War. This has been the case since 1949, or even earlier, and continues to this day.
Simply put, it's equivalent to risking your life for the internal affairs of a country you don't understand, care about, and are completely unfamiliar with.
In my opinion, Americans too easily attribute exaggerated meanings to Taiwan, as if the world would be destroyed if China achieved national reunification, and all businesses on the island of Taiwan would be confiscated. This is actually a rather foolish imagination. Tens of thousands of American companies have investments in China, including Tesla. Does that mean the Chinese will confiscate Musk's Teslas tomorrow? Is Musk a fool?
The reason Americans have all sorts of strange assumptions stems from their complete ignorance of China. This creates a situation where a small amount of money, used to bribe a few key figures in think tanks and government officials, can instigate the massive American national machinery—I'm referring to the American military—to fight China. The American people would be unwittingly drawn into a war that profoundly impacts their nation's future. Isn't this fundamentally contrary to the spirit of democracy?
