    I always think it's funny that people call this colonialism. China is building schools, hospitals, improving the material conditions of countries.

    This is not colonialism. As much as Amerikkka wants all of its citizens to think every country does it. They don't.

    This is the same thing with China giving large amounts of money to Africa. Liberals called it "debt traps" then China ended up just forgiving the loans.

    China has had an overwhelmingly larger positive effect on the world than Amerikkk has ever had.

    Western imperialism is slowly dying and I am glad to see it

      Indeed xi-lib-tears

      China is doing so much good in the world. It gives me hope that humanity will survive and communism will win

        I want to believe that, whether intentionally or unintentionally, they're forging the material conditions for revolution to be successful. Even if they don't go full commie in a few decades (as they should in my opinion, shifting progressively from market socialism to a democratically centrally computationally planned economy with social ownership of the means of production), the existence of a multipolar world with china on one side is already incredibly more beneficial than US hegemony.

      Oh I agree. Not fully though, there are definitely some negative side effects, this isn't paradise, such things don't exist in this world. But netto it's a good thing.

      If the west wanted Africa for themselves, they should've done something about that. China is doing something about it. Good for China and good for Africa.

      The funniest thing is all these "blocked by an instance filter for hexbear.net" responses. They're like clockwork. XD

        Not fully though, there are definitely some negative side effects, this isn't paradise, such things don't exist in this world.

        All the negative side effects of having hospitals, schools, roads, and other infastructure - its straight out of Heart of Darkness - "the horror, the horror."

        I know they can't see this so, just between us - i hate how libs are like well "its not paradise, such things don't exist in this world." So because communist can't do things perfectly (which we don't claim to) then what we do is probably worse than what the liberals do. Or maybe they mean something like "you naive socialist think its perfect - but perfect doesn't exist kiddo" bet Marx failed to consider that. smuglord either way its huge very-intelligent energy. Libs think they're are the only ones to ever think before
