I actually had the opportunity to move to China, but chose not to pursue it because of my studies. Before the pandemic, I would go there every few years to visit family, and it was really cool. Chinese cities have this bustle, and my experience was that people often acted in a way that would be considered rude in my home country Japan, but to me it felt really genuine, and like every other Asian country had great street food too. Public opinion has definitely shifted hard on the USA, the turning point was around the Trump administration, where the complaint was less about him being racist or whatever but people were just more bewildered that someone seemingly as dumb as him got elected. I would say around until Trump the US was actually highly respected - people preferred US/Western products, etc... and elements of that still remain but it seems that the true Imperial Nature of :amerikkka: is becoming more and more recognised.
