      Check out the continent of Africa for a current view of the counterpoint to your argument.

      Have you seen nmap before?

        “The US isn’t being aggressive by building military bases on the border of this other country on the other side of the world because… um… HEY LOOK! IT’S AFRICA!”

        Fucking moron

          You seem angry and myopic.

          Anyway, that’s not what I said. Nor implied. China (xi/aka pooh bear). Is ALSO bad. CHINA is ALSO building military bases, secret camps, “police stations”, around the world.

          They’ve turned a Democratic Hong Kong into an authoritarian regime. As they seek to do with Taiwan.

          They prop up north Korea, supply weapons to Russia, etc., they intern Muslims, they disappear their own people. (See, China is ALSO, a murderous dictatorship. Get it yet?)

          Africa, is their focus at present.

          Resources.

          They’ve taken over major ports. They’ve built military bases. They’re exploiting the people. They’re just getting started.

          Payback in some minds, for the century of humiliation.

            I appreciate you kicking off your screed with a (shoehorned) racist caricature just to mark the water level in your brain pan.

            Why is China evil? I guess is the topic now? Well, according to you, they want revenge. For what? That time we made them slaves and murdered them by the millions. And how are they going to get that revenge? By making financial investments in overseas ports.

            oOOooOOOooOOo

              The fuck? It took me a minute. Lol.

              Who’s racist?

              Buddy person, words have different meanings. If you applied the visual meaning rather than the obvious intended meaning, buddy person, you, are the racist.

                “I’m not racist for casting something as sinister and evil just because Chinese are doing it when it’s something laudable and encouraged in my own society! You’re the racist for being offended at me using a yellow cartoon character to mock an Asian person!”

                You’re objectively a piece of shit

                  When. The. Fuck. Did. I. Mention. A. Cartoon. Character? (Aside from pooh bear. If that offends you and makes me racist. Great. You’re still angry and myopic.)

                  Listen, girlfriend, USA imperialism = bad, Chinese imperialism = bad.

                  Can I get any clearer? (Oh, and I’m not American)

                  Or do you just want to be a dick?

                  Also, here’s some lotion for your sensitive skin:
