The World Is Fed Up with China’s Belligerence

China thrives on singling out countries for punishment when they don’t show deference, so one answer is definitely organised resistance

Power, corruption and lies: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2007/jan/08/china.bookextr...

"Since the end of World War II the United States has

* endeavored to overthrow more than 50 foreign governments, most of which were democratically elected;

* grossly interfered in democratic elections in at least 30 countries;

* attempted to assassinate more than 50 foreign leaders;

* dropped bombs on the people of more than 30 countries;

* attempted to suppress a populist or nationalist movement in 20 countries."

-- William Blum, America's Deadliest Export, Zed Books 2014, Introduction. (Each bullet point is footnoted with sources.)

That was as of 2013. I think all the numbers are higher now.

Lol. America is hilarious. China's "belligerence" is a soft power bringing jobs, industry and infrastructure across the developing world.

It is American "friendship" that still leads the vast majority of coups, wars, invasions and regime changes.

American power is only the hard kind, with that military bigger than the next 25 countries combined. The largest polluter on earth.

Unlike colonialism, which brought only bibles and depravity, and capitalism, which brought gross inequality and exploitation, China offers infrastructure for resources.

In most of the world, that's the most honest deal they've ever been offered.
