There's something extremely funny about the president of the US looking at what's going on China and saying out loud, "Their economy is a ticking time bomb." This is almost an onion news story.

Omfg you people really spam every China related thread on our site huh? Forcing us to endure seeing your annoying asses at every corner, is there no way to block every hexbear user?

Time for you to go make friends with the fascists and shitlibs who share your opinions I guess

Go in the real world kid. 99% of people of all politics will not like China.

[–] [email protected] 87 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You're such a redditor

It's also kinda hard to have 99% of people dislike China if 18% of the global population lives there and is very satisfied with their government, not even counting anyone in Russia, other parts of Asia and the Pacific, Central and South America, or Africa.

You're really showing whose opinions you actually care about. A bunch of propagandized to the brim, comfortable Americans, Canadians, and Europeans

That's ridiculous since the Chinese like China and we're 18% of all humans.

Here's an article about Americans getting salty that views on China in South America are largely positive as opposed to sub 50% approval rating in English speaking countries.

Here's Voice of America saying the same thing about Africa and how Africans see China.

Your opinions on China is not only in the minority, it's a waning minority. Those are western sources I used in case you wanted to cry propaganda.

Go read about BRI infrastructure projects in Africa and Asia. The global south is generally very positive about Chinese politics because Chinese give them hospitals and roads and ports.

In the real world 99% of people in US think about where their next meal is going to come from instead of perseverating about China the way you're doing kid.

I think you'd be shocked to find out that most of the world thinks very highly of China and it's accomplishments and foreign policy. Though you like meant only to refer to Americans, which is understandable given your lamentable biases.
