Key Notes
Cato says Marcia no longer moves him now that she dwells beyond the evil river, and he agrees to help only for the sake of the heavenly lady rather than out of affection for Virgil.
Jiang says additional signs of earlier hostility included the closure of an American consulate and the cancellation of the Peace Corps in China.
Jiang says those same information systems can be used to create civil unrest by feeding people content that makes them more hostile and violent.
