Meanwhile back in reality land: China enjoys good relationships and win-win co-operation with the global majority and in addition has made itself indispensable to the western world which can complain and moan all it wants but still has to buy China's products.

    I had a period of time where I just kind of bought the "Teh evil CCP!" line myself, when I was a younger SocDem (I got better). I never had the fervent hate of China that these people do, which probably is why I got out of it, but I had just kind of accepted the whole "Chinese government is bad" line at face value. Yes, I was one of those "Hate the government, not the people" idiots. This was back before China was the crux of half of their fearmongering though and I had just absorbed some of the poison before my critical thinking finally kicked in.

    It was a dark time.
