“China’s collective memory of a century of humiliation by foreign powers, beginning with the First Opium War, has steeled its resolve”.
…
Except that it wasn’t the west that humiliated + held China down for 100 years – it was madman Mao killing and supressing over 60,000,000 of his own people and stopping China from developing.
Supress your own people with communism for 70 years, then blame the west that you’re poor.
Sure.
How quickly China + the CCP forget that if not for a few hundred trillion of stolen US industry, China would still be slurping noodles in a mud puddle.
How quickly China forgets who gave it all its prosperity as American workers are driven into the street in thanks.
It’s not the west’s fault you licked communist boots for 70 years + almost starved out of existence. Stop blaming the west for communism destroying your own country.
It’s easy to transform a country when someone else did decades of hard work + paid for all the development.
China has never had it so easy. Imagine being a poor country + your enemy handing you trillions of $ of pre-made industries for free, then overtaking them and becoming a world power.
CCP officials must be laughing at how dumb the west is.
The reality is, without US industry + tech to steal from the west, China is in big trouble.
Who Killed More: Hitler, Stalin, or Mao?
It wasn’t the west, that did this to you, China, it was Mao + Communism.
