    Here’s a challenge for you: Write something that is actually critical of the Chinese government. Can you do it?

      Chinese freedom of opinions and knowledge is some of the worst on the planet and xi jinping is riding off the coattails of Deng Zhao pings success in opening up china. There, now here’s another truth bomb, china sucks and treats it’s citizens like robots but yet somehow I’d rather trust the historic super power which historically didn’t bother nobody outside of it’s little sphere unlike the current western superpowers who exploit the entire planet to make that “first world” experience for like 10% of humanity

        Look, China isn’t the devil or anything, they do lots of things better then the US. They want their “little sphere” to be Earth though. They have been making moves to compete with US influence all over the world for years now, and they’re not doing it out of the goodness of their hearts.

        Honestly, the more I look into China, the more I realize the worst thing about it is that they’re very much like the US, no matter how much both sides would deny it. The US needs to be taken down a peg or two, but replacing it with a different empire isn’t the way to go. We need a world without superpowers, not to try and find the “good” one. They’ll always go bad once they get to the top. That’s just how massive power structures work.
