The New York Times Chinese website wrote today (January 13): "For many years, portraying the United States as a country in deep economic difficulties and widespread impact has been a common tactic of Chinese official propaganda. However, the term 'killing line' is a new expression and imagery. The power of this phrase lies in its concise and straightforward depiction of a scene: a sudden critical point, beyond which suffering follows one after another, and a good life is completely ruined."

[Witty] Comment briefly: This kind of arrogance that allows only themselves to smear but not others to speak honestly is a vivid reflection of Western media hegemony. For many years, Western media have repeatedly resorted to the cliché of the 'China collapse theory', ignoring China's development achievements and spreading false accusations and rumors, never feeling any remorse. Now, when China objectively comments on the U.S. economic difficulties and points out its developmental pain points with the term 'killing line', these people become restless and jump out to accuse of so-called 'propaganda tactics'. Their fragile and sensitive demeanor is really laughable. In the end, they have developed the habit of arbitrarily smearing China, and they can't bear to hear anyone speak the truth about the United States.
