The United States government has been engaged in a bit of a high profile skirmish with the Chinese government. This is not about foreign Wuhan Chinese Kung-Flu virus, though the ChiCom response to that epidemic of blaming the US Army for creating the virus is undoubtedly exacerbating it, it is about the pervasive influence of Chinese government propaganda and information operations in the United States spearheaded by Chinese media organizations.
The term ChiComs reminds me of growing up with the Red Menace hanging over our heads.
Ah yes, the good old days when we all knew we were about to die in an atomic fireball at any moment. Kind of like now, but with a different looking villain.
I'm not old enough for "Duck and Cover" but my elementary school did hold bomb drills where we all went into the basement and hugged the walls.
