    shitting on the global hegemonic imperialist power into which the exploited labor of billions feeds is “contrarian”. of course.

    I’m not a fan of imperialistic western behavior either

    oh no, they better not follow it up with a b–

    but

    lmfao.

    doesn’t make China a positive influence on the world stage

    I’m a little confused by what metric China isn’t a positive influence on the world stage. sure, call them 1985 george ornell aminal farm authoritaritarians all you want inside their country, continue to make social credit score jokes like a dipshit, whatever, but China hasn’t declared war on a country in decades and they’ve actively pumped one trillion dollars into infrastructure projects in developing countries, forgiving debts as often as not. meanwhile, the US pumps trillions of dollars into murdering civilians into several of those same countries.

      African leaders have repeatedly told western leaders to fuck off because all they do is talk about china. They’re more contrarian than we are and they have power and influence. Stop worrying about my shitposting and worry about your leaders getting rejected by your imperial targets
