Your Government Needs You Angry At Foreign Tyrants So You Won't Notice The Ones Ruling You
[Federalist] In response to reports that Putin critic Alexei Navalny has died in a Russian prison, your rulers in Washington want you to be angry. Your corrupt government, which is at this very moment working to put your Christian neighbors in prison for protesting abortion, wants you to be very angry at a foreign leader nearly 6,000 miles away so you won’t pay attention to what your leaders are doing to you in your own backyard.

Your government, which wants to disarm you and prevent you from defending yourself, wants you angry at a leader who has no power over you whatsoever. The government that censors you and lies to you about viruses it helped create wants your focus elsewhere. The government that sold your economy off to China and then destroyed the value of your currency wants you mad at someone else.

The government that banned you from going to church and then tried to fire you for not taking its worthless "vaccine" wants to whip you into a frenzy over literally anything else other than what it’s doing to you right now.

The government that opened your borders to invasion and looked the other way as violent crime enveloped your cities wants you to believe that crime on another continent is the only crime you should care about. And that the borders of a country half a world away are the only borders worth protecting.

#1 And that the borders of a country half a world away are the only borders worth protecting.

It's actually worse than that. Because the biggest beneficiary of Ukraine war is China.
China wants Russian Far East a lot more than it wants Taiwan.

#2 Yeah, in fact, didn't the Chinese draw some map where they had a Russian area labelled as Chinese territory?

Probably nothing new, just that it was mentioned on the Web somewhere, and I happened to catch it.
