    Everything they’ve done we have done or are currently doing

    False equivalence. I wish the US had done the belt and road initiative, instead of having over 900 military bases, predatory loans with policy mandates attached, black ops and political assassinations as well as forcing extractive rather than productive economies on the global south. China hasn’t dropped a single bomb on other people in decades, has never seized an asset from a debtor, has never engaged in a war to steal oil and gas or forced an embargo to starve out a nation, let alone starve several dozens at any given time.

    The only countries in the 20th century doing what the US has been doing internationally are Nazi Germany and Japan.
