This is worrying. China doesn't give a fuck what high income countries think about them because we still buy their shit anyway. They care about the middle and lower income countries, though, because they can exploit minorities and pay lower income to outsource to them (which is crazy considering how little they pay their own laborers).
Apart from the pure , you gotta love the subtly racist smugness of white westerners halfway across the fucking planet being so confident that they would know better whether or not and by who the peoples of middle-income countries are exploited than the peoples of middle-income countries themselves.
How do you think China got so prosperous? Being outsourced labour is the foundation of the Chinese economy.
Stop projecting your AmeriKKKan views on other countries lmao
Good.
Guys did you know that China does business with developing countries, just to exploit the minorities??

If I didn't read theory and be a lib, I'd write the same. How does the NATO boot taste?
Chocolate and famous name brand cola?
No, you should definitely double down on your fascism. That's a great side of history to be on.
Are you sure you're on the right side of history when your side includes Germany, Italy, and Japan, and you're up against Russia and China?
Perhaps it isn't the developing third-world country with improving quality of life every year that is the fascist, but rather the same people who have always been the fascists.

Edit: Eeeh, my comment was just too mean. I'm sure you'll become aware of who you are right now later in life.
