lolol who do you think made all of America's toys? China could have said no, but they saw America ripping resources and toppling countries, and said, "yeah, we'll provide the labor and materials for a half century so you can keep terrorizing the world!" China's an accomplice to all this because they, too, wanted to exploit world imperialism to rise in power. It's been all hands on deck since Nixon's era.
