When I see these pro-China pieces, I remember that Chinese citizens can’t speak freely, exercise political will, or breathe clean air. As well as China’s actions towards the annexation/militarization of surrounding waters, erasure of Tibetan and Uyghuar cultures, and propagation of destabilizing online propaganda.

All true. They have their own version of this though.

“When I see pro American pieces, I remember that their citizens are obese and undereducated, or subjugated by centuries old race caste system and incarcerated at very high rates. Their schools are failing, their cities are riddled with crime, their infrastructure is crumbling, half of them hate the other half, and they wield imperial control around the world with their military, killing a million Iraqis to secure their oil.”

I’m sure they’d love to come live in the US though. Lines at the US visa offices in China have been enormous.

Funny thing is, I don’t see articles that say “America launches (best AI thing / fastest chip / 5g bs)” … just the company (usually international) that did the work.
