China's communists bash US democracy before Biden summit

Contributor's comments:
Associated Press Reports:
BEIJING (AP) — China’s Communist Party took American democracy to task on Saturday, sharply criticizing a global democracy summit being hosted by President Joe Biden next week and extolling the virtues of its governing system.
Party officials questioned how a polarized country that botched its response to COVID-19 could lecture others, and said that efforts to force others to copy the Western democratic model are “doomed to fail.”
The harsh rhetoric reflects a growing clash of values that has been thrust into the spotlight as China rises as a global power. The question is whether the United States and other leading democracies can peacefully co-exist with a powerful authoritarian state whose actions are at odds with the Western model that emerged victorious at the end of the Cold War.
This contributor suggests: That the United States Government should presume to take time out of the urgencies that their own corruptions present, to lecture the world on the business of Democracy, is the height of hubris and hypocrisy. That Biden isn't ashamed to be seen engaged in such presumptuous folly and hypocrisy on a national stage goes to the question of his intelligence and competence.
