Rejection of so-called extremism is such an enlightened centrist take, people are suffering due to the West and you would rather do nothing?

People of color have agency, and blaming still "The West" for all suffering in - say - China and Vietnam is initializing, and a true example of orientalism.

Of course the West contributes especially by economic exploitation, but in particular China is hardly exploited by the West anymore. Nor is it about to suffer any further intervention from Western powers.
