“the Chinese”
Not China (the country), not the PRC (the country), but “the Chinese.”
Because that’s what the US ambassador thinks of Chinese people.
“Hate the government not the people” proceeds to bomb/sanction/sabotage the people
They only want a world controlled by white men. They’ll bomb and kill anyone that threatens their fascist utopia.
What do you expect when their last and next president calls them chinamen?
Fuck china, the prc and the chinese. Nuke it and make it a parking lot.
least genocidal liberal
If that is the case, you probably should have thought about that 50 years ago when “you” allowed and encouraged industries to out-source. But it’s too late now.
China: we’re going to become a manufacturing machine for the world, but we’re going to use your investment, technology, and infrastructure to build up our country and eventually overtake you.
US capitalists: hah, yeah, sure. Would you look at these profit margins!?
well, the US could do a revolution, nationalize what’s left of the country and then start rebuilding. that would prevent this ghastly future…
but nah, they’re gonna ride neoliberalism to the grave.
Well your grave and mine. But the ultra-wealthy will live their best life, until there is no one to bury them.
In that case,
“We don’t want to live in a world where the USians are the dominant country,” reply billions.
I’m American and would LOVE to see this piece of shit country taken down a peg or 40.
Okay, get in.
Me sowing (parasitizing third world countries for extracting capital): hahaha yes!
Me reaping (decomposing my productive state into a bloated financial institution): owiee nooo
I do not want to live in a world where US/UK/DE/FR/AU are the dominant country.
Uh, too late? By like 300+ years?
Well, we can work towards changing that, and judging by this article we’re well on the way it seems.
But assuming that one has to be dominant, which would you choose of the ones that are realistic possibilities?
So you are okay with living under extreme censorship? Not being able to talk about Tienamin Square, etc? Okay with being complicit in atrocities like Tibet, and inevitably Taiwan if unopposed?
Whoever promises more support to anti-imperialist efforts, so that the world may build itself up together.
Who is that? Certainly none of the countries that could actually take up the mantle. And I fear that any country that could would finally become imperialist. If we say that the top 3 competitors are US, China, and Russia, there’s only one that hasn’t actively attempted conquest and annexation of their neighbors.
All 3 have, what are you smoking? The US is one of the most imperialistic nations on Earth. That’s not to say Russia and China aren’t either, but to pretend the US didn’t forcibly annex territories is to wash away the centuries of genocide and Conquest as “okay” because it was done successfully and more than a few years ago.
Do you consider things which happened hundreds of years ago to be of the same weight as things that are happening as we speak?
Do you consider things which happened merely decades ago, even up to hundreds of years ago, have lasting impact on generations that follow?
If you successfully do Imperialism, such that the colonized can no longer resist, does that erase the sin?
I don’t, but if given a choice between living under a power that’s actively attacking and subjugating its neighbors and committing genocides and one that’s not, I’ll take the one that’s not.
BRICS. I do not want any one country to be dominant. This is real global democracy.
Unfortunately I don’t think it will work. If “BRICS” was somehow in charge, China would just take over.
Everyone is not like UK or USA.
So you are okay with living under extreme censorship? Not being able to talk about Tienamin Square, etc? Okay with being complicit in atrocities like Tibet, and inevitably Taiwan if unopposed?
Oh nevermind, if this is your politics. No room for exchange is left I think. Giving benefit of doubt almost always backfires.
Interesting for you to fold under even the first question to explain your position, but so be it.
China
Rules for thee, not for me
Why? Are you afraid they’re going to treat you as poorly as you treated them? They won’t, but they absolutely should.
Don’t live. Problem solved.
The white man’s burden (is his inflated ego).
