The rise of China is good for poor countries

China’s rise as a superpower gives poor countries bargaining power, making them less easy to exploit.

This should be welcomed.

We need to ensure that we are not being useful idiots for the western elites who hate having that competition. We need to not parrot their propaganda.

Everyone and every country can be criticized, of course, but let’s not assist in the demonisation of China, which serves only to escalate tensions between nuclear powers, in the desperate hope that China will fall so that the exploitation of those poor countries can continue unhindered.

Nuclear war seems more likely than that.

Let’s be sensible.
