China is in default on a trillion dollars in debt to US bondholders. Will the US force repayment?

The United States pays interest on approximately $850 billion in debt held by the People’s Republic of China. China, however, is currently in default on its sovereign debt held by American bondholders.

Because "family values" in US discourse is usually code for homophobia and sexism, while "anti-communism" is usually just racism, classism and xenophobia.
Yeah saying "usually" and assuming a US discourse while not explaining what is wrong with a traditional family value and anti communism is not what I expected. Should have know that people only think in USA while in their "America bad" mind state. My bad.
Thing is, ironically, the only people whom have treated me and my people with racism, classism and xenophobia are leftists, be from Europe or north America. Weird.
What is your ethnicity if I may ask? Because the anti communism bit does vary per society somewhat, but "traditional family values" are usually a far more constant in discouraging a wide variety of perfectly fine things.
I don't know what ethnicity I am, but leftists love to call me and my people brown gusano even tho we are not from Cuba
I'll be honest, I dont think thats what anti-communism is.
I dont think the average American really knows what communism is.
In fact, me just saying this will likely result in many Americans acusing me of being a Communist even though I have said nothing to indicate my position on it, one way or the other.
Such is the power of the word 'communism' in the United States.
As far as US politics is concerned it very much is. Going all the way back to framing of immigrants as communists in the early 20th century and using that to punish immigrant labour groups. Or using communism as a reason to destroy another Latin American or Middle Eastern country. Or using communism as a reason to arrest left leaning people in the US in the 1950s for no reason. Or the recent policies hostile to Chinese immigrants that were justified by the American public with anti-communism.
