I see you have your cut and paste propaganda all ready to go there.
Sounds an awful lot like claiming Iraqis wanted the US to overthrow Sadam and would welcome it with open arms. It worked out about the same too, except for the Russian military embarrassing themselves. Even taken at face value, all you are doing is justifying the imperialism, not showing it doesn't exist.
China is the biggest debt holder nation in the world. Zambia just had to default on loans for infrastructure that largely served Chinese needs, and Kenya and Ethiopia are not far behind. Meanwhile, the DRC is falling into debt paying for infrastructure to ship Copper and Cobalt to Chinese. China has not been as abusive as the west was, but they aren't that much better either. It's still the same tactics.

"Cut and paste propaganda" lol you mean sources? You're just upset that they came prepared because you've got jack shit
Oh yeah, famous Chinese propaganda outlet: The Atlantic.
Fuck off; you're just using the word "propaganda" to mean "anything I disagree with. There is nothing that anyone could say to you to disagree that you wouldn't immediately say "that's propaganda and therefore wrong!" to.
Are you stupid? Iraq immediately erupted into long term insurgency, a thing that categorically did not happen in Crimea or Donbas.
There is still a significant pro Ukrainian resistance operating in both Crimea and Donbas. Russian has had to resort to brutal tactics to suppress them, but has still not been entirely successful. Many of the resisters retreated to fight with the rest of Ukraine, and they are certainly giving Russia a fight. In any case, it's still imperialism.
Yeah? Where did you hear this?
If you don't like cut and paste responses, stop having cut and paste thoughts.
