The CPC are the good guys because China has been demonstrably a force for good around the wold. And no amount of seething from western racists is going to change this fact.
Ask the Uighurs how China has demonstrated their Good to them, just to begin with...
Sure, let’s just begin with that, because it’s a textbook case of the US 1) being the bad guy and 2) pushing propaganda that China is the bad guy. And you bought into the propaganda, as nearly all Westerners have, including me for years.
I agree with both of you.
China's human rights abuses should never go unmentioned.
That said, they've also been investing in developing countries more than Western nations have. While Westerners focus on cannibalizing their own populations, China sees the value in spreading out and building up where there's more room for growth.
Americans have nobody but themselves to blame for their increasing irrelevance on the world stage.
