Except if you ignore China's illegal imperialist actions in the South China sea, their constant threatening of Taiwanese lives, their systematic suppression of journalists and free speech, the extremely strict and HEAVILY biased access to their markets (yet they expect unrestricted access to American markets...), lack of respect for intellectual property laws, propping up north Korea, the continued support of Russias illegal war in Ukraine, etc...

Chinese people are incredibly hard working, smart, and I also genuinely want a world where we're friends. Unfortunately China's actions do not create an environment where this is possible. Perhaps they will also want to be friends and stop these actions. I guess we'll see.
