You notice the divide and how effective it is when speaking with Africans. Those that live in Africa tend to view China and other developing countries in a more sympathetic and even admirable light. Meanwhile, those that were raised in the West continuously bash China and constantly screech about Xinjiang and them causing the pandemic.

I noticed it recently in a discussion with Nigerians. Those living in Nigera were praising China and its efforts. Two Nigerians raised in the UK and Germany were quick to downplay any of China's achievements and claim that propaganda had brainwashed everybody.

Also noticed that it's generally Millennials and older that are pro-western with younger generations being more pro-China/Pro- PanAfrica
