Genuinely, cant I think both the US and Russia both crusted knobends. China looks better by comparison but I don’t trust them either. China looks the most stable and reasonable though they are just better at playing the shifty game.
Having skepticism and being critical in general is fine, but to do that we need to engage with reality as much as we can. Most of the time I see China being criticized for exaggerations or outright fabrications, we can’t take anti-China propaganda at face value when it’s pushed by their geopolitical adversaries. We need evidence.
China definetly has rot at the center of their society just like ours, they’ve very good lately by hiding it with propoganda.
“Those lying Asians are just as bad as us. We don’t have any evidence of that, but it must be because they are so good at hiding it with their lies”.
They have rampant corruption (so much that they give officals the death penalty for bribery, but it still doesn’t stop,)
So, giving severe punishment for corruption is evidence of rampant corruption, rather than of the state actually taking action against corruption (and not doing the Epstein thing)?
out of control pollution
Which has been getting “in control”, so to speak.
Also, amusing how you blame the effects of colonialism on the Global South. Do you think that the PRC should have magically switched to green energy without building up the capability to do that, all after your empire plundered it?
huge modern cities where nobody lives
Oh nooo. What an atrocity. This hurts… approximately nobody.
cheap EVs that explode
Tesla is a NATO company, not a PRC one.
people finding the rice they just bought is actually plastic

thousands of identical online content creators all using the same filter to look like the perfect woman, sometimes lined up dozens livestreaming on the same street a few feet from each other, etc.
Ah yes, such an awful thing in comparison with your empire engaging a genocide of Palestine.
Also, any sources of that happening, or is this another case of “Iraq WMDs”?
We don’t hear about that stuff very much in the west because freedom of speech doesn’t exist there
You mean the thing that you heard from the people who also sold you on “Iraq WMDs”?
Also, what do you expect to hear from there when you do not speak the language?
