Well, I'd be happy for my government to invest in overtaking the world if that would make it build houses and develop cities.

And destroying minorities, culture, and individual freedom?

Sorry you mean it's not already doing that? I missed it, because I'm not blind so I can see those things being destroyed currently and for 20 years now. Are you so blind that you didn't see the effects of the 11th of September 2001? I guess you're a liberal...

And you think that stupid people doing nonsense without reason is the same as a government playing on the long run and actively engineering every step of the way?

But of course you try to pin a random label because you see that your argument is too weak and you need a strawman.

Also, no one here said or even implied that the US is doing good. But if you think that stupid evil is worse than smart evil, you definitely are more blind than you think.

Oh so you think that the racism in your country is merely because people are stupid? Or maybe you pretend that the USA wasn't trying to be the world overlord since ww2?

It's always easier to see the straw in the eye of your enemy than the tree you have in yours. But maybe you're just stupid I guess.

My country? Ok bro. Then calling me stupid, ironic.

And yes, most of the US's racism is out of nearsighted stupidity. They have no idea what they're doing and certainly are unable to have a long term plan.

Wanting to steal other countries is just a typical thing that "powerful" countries do when they are led stupidly, it's not a big scheme.

I don't know what your game is here but you really don't know how to play it.

There's no game to play. You're merely vilifying China while ignoring or excusing all the things USA do. There's absolutely zero honesty in your point of view. You're a zealot preaching on social media is the game you're playing.

If you think racism and sexism are simple stupidity, you're just as stupid as the people you're judging here. If you think USA is less evil than China regarding geopolitics, then not only are you naive, but also uninformed and blind.

Which leads to the game I'm playing: you're vilifying China when your country is not better, so I'm making fun of you because you deserve it.

And if you're not from USA but from Europe, it's not better.

Yeah, you're just a troll I guess.
