Is China asking to colonize countries in the Americas?

They're not europe lmao, no need to project

It is weird that that policy is the one mentioned.

China could easily argue about the Roosevelt Corollary or other American foreign policies and that would be understandable. It just sounds weird that the foreign policy that China is actively arguing against is the one about foreign countries colonizing previously liberated countries in the Americas.

They don't ask, but they want to extract all the resources they can. and never mind the people living there.

The US is not the only imperialist power.

Do you have numbers to back that up, or general proof behind China's trade being Imperialist, rather than cooperative, in comparison with the US?

[-] davel@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago

The US is not the only imperialist power.

That is true: Always the same map

You're going to need to show that you have a serious understanding here or you're going to need to stop posting on the topic in this comm.

Isn't that what the US is doing pretty much everywhere in the world? And now fellow Americans are angry that another country has the same idea?
