How does leaving Afghanistan to the Taliban hurt China or strike a blow against big pharma?

Dude, when I run for office I’m called “Far Left” AND “Far Right.” It’s because the real division is liberty vs. authoritarianism.
George W. Bush got one thing right, you're either wit us, or agin us
anybody claiming to be in the center, is just a crypto Woke disgruntled Democrat useful idiot

Now that we are out of Afghanistan I guess we can end the TSA and rescind the Patriot Act

There’s a lot of wisdom here. But you guys aren’t right about everything.
I’m with you on most things tho.

in terms of hurting China, it is drawing them down a rabbit hole
making Pakistan China's problem is a good thing
let them get drawn into that
this was the original mission in Afghanistan, way back in 1979
let the Communists get dragged into that quagmire, make it into their Vietnam
China benefits whenever America looks weak, loses allies, and loses influence.
If America is that weak globally and Pax-Americana is already over, then you are right - being in Afghanistan is not likely to change that.
Unfortunately, I don't know how to prove that one way or the other without the benefit of at least another generation of hindsight.
HAIL!

As far as “Centrist” goes, if the Left is authoritarian and the Right is Liberty, Smitty is the closest thing we have to that.

Yes, I was literally recommending a Canadian invasion force.
And you accuse ME of being disingenuous.
Everyone else here seems to disagree - but everyone here seems to be basing foreign policy decisions on what will irritate the Woke domestically.
Time will tell.
of course there will be negative consequences to the withdrawal
the negative consequences of not withdrawing, are simply much bigger
obvious better choice is obvious
nice motte and bailey
but the motte you retreated to is still not a defensible position
