See, continue to expose yourself as a troll. There are mountains of studies examining China’s investments around the world, and they all show positive and persistent impact. This is the opposite of what you chuds did there, but evidently all a parasite can do is project and assume everyone else is also a parasite.

We have a great economy because of services that we provide. We have a highly educated population.
Nah, it’s because you’re leeches.
What the fuck? Using brain? Logic? In a tankie sub?!
Take your own advice little dronie.
Oh look more projecting. If you knew anything at all then you’d know that China has seen the highest rise in standard of living in human history. Being an ignoramus that you are, you don’t even bother considering where China started at when comparing to your shithole colonizer country. Your whole standard of living is built on brutal colonial exploitation, particularly in the Congo.
From 1885 to 1960, Belgium plundered the Congo Free State (later the Belgian Congo) for rubber, ivory, and minerals, enabled by forced labor, mutilation, and mass killings that claimed millions of lives. King Leopold II’s personal fiefdom and subsequent state rule extracted vast wealth, financing Belgium’s industrialization and public infrastructure while leaving Congolese society impoverished and fractured.
Today, Belgian corporations like Union Minière (now rebranded as Umicore) maintained control over strategic resources such as cobalt and copper, critical to modern technology, through neocolonial trade arrangements. Belgium’s social welfare systems and economy at large are directly subsidized by extraction of resources and labor from the Global South.
Belgium has never done any meaningful reparations or dismantled systems of exploitation, it’s a parasitic nation. Its prosperity, built on ongoing extraction, underscores a global order where colonizers thrive at the expense of those they exploit.
lol imagine not being able to understand the concept of purchasing power
Meanwhile, welcome to real Belgium 🤡 https://peoplesdispatch.org/2025/03/31/belgium-on-strike-against-arizona-coalitions-austerity-plans/
I have no problem criticizing China when I talk to serious people who have a clue regarding the subject. I’m not going to do that while being bated by an obvious troll such as yourself. Meanwhile, your ability to jeer at the oligarchs who rule over you is known as jester’s privilege. Nothing to be proud of.
Newsflash, every society does censorship. It’s hilarious how westies think they got the balance right, while everyone else has got it wrong while the west is literally imploding now. 🤡

Oh no poor wasps can’t feel superior living in China!
Europeans have actively worked to destroy Syria and other countries along with the US, that’s why people are fleeing countries like Syria. Seems appropriate that Europe would be taking refugees from countries Europe helped destroy.
You don’t have to become a refugee, can just get a job there.
I love how y’all are still seething that your color revolution failed

get some new material troll
huh?
90% of families in the country own their home giving China one of the highest home ownership rates in the world. What’s more is that 80% of these homes are owned outright, without mortgages or any other leans. https://www.forbes.com/sites/wadeshepard/2016/03/30/how-people-in-china-afford-their-outrageously-expensive-homes
Chinese household savings hit another record high in 2024 https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/stock-market-today-dow-jones-bank-earnings-01-12-2024/card/chinese-household-savings-hit-another-record-high-xqyky00IsIe357rtJb4j
People in China enjoy high levels of social mobility https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/11/18/world/asia/china-social-mobility.html
The typical Chinese adult is now richer than the typical European adult https://www.businessinsider.com/typical-chinese-adult-now-richer-than-europeans-wealth-report-finds-2022-9
Real wage (i.e. the wage adjusted for the prices you pay) has gone up 4x in the past 25 years, more than any other country. This is staggering considering it’s the most populous country on the planet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cw8SvK0E5dI
The real (inflation-adjusted) incomes of the poorest half of the Chinese population increased by more than four hundred percent from 1978 to 2015, while real incomes of the poorest half of the US population actually declined during the same time period. https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w23119/w23119.pdf
From 1978 to 2000, the number of people in China living on under $1/day fell by 300 million, reversing a global trend of rising poverty that had lasted half a century (i.e. if China were excluded, the world’s total poverty population would have risen) https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/China’s-Economic-Growth-and-Poverty-Reduction-Angang-Linlin/c883fc7496aa1b920b05dc2546b880f54b9c77a4
From 2010 to 2019 (the most recent period for which uninterrupted data is available), the income of the poorest 20% in China increased even as a share of total income. https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SI.DST.FRST.20?end=2019&%3Blocations=CN&%3Bstart=2008
By the end of 2020, extreme poverty, defined as living on under a threshold of around $2 per day, had been eliminated in China. According to the World Bank, the Chinese government had spent $700 billion on poverty alleviation since 2014. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/31/world/asia/china-poverty-xi-jinping.html
Over the past 40 years, the number of people in China with incomes below $1.90 per day – the International Poverty Line as defined by the World Bank to track global extreme poverty– has fallen by close to 800 million. With this, China has contributed close to three-quarters of the global reduction in the number of people living in extreme poverty. https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2022/04/01/lifting-800-million-people-out-of-poverty-new-report-looks-at-lessons-from-china-s-experience
None of these things happen in capitalist states, and we can make a direct comparison with India which follows capitalist path of development. In fact, without China there practically would be no poverty reduction happening in the world.
If we take just one country, China, out of the global poverty equation, then even under the $1.90 poverty standard we find that the extreme poverty headcount is the exact same as it was in 1981.
https://www.currentaffairs.org/2019/07/5-myths-about-global-poverty
The $1.90/day (2011 PPP) line is not an adequate or in any way satisfactory level of consumption; it is explicitly an extreme measure. Some analysts suggest that around $7.40/day is the minimum necessary to achieve good nutrition and normal life expectancy, while others propose we use the US poverty line, which is $15.

Sure, meanwhile Cuba, China, Vietnam, Laos which are moving humanity forward.
The quotes you selected suggest the opposite. The US is recognizing that it lost the proxy war against Russia, and it is now willing to accept Russian terms for ending the conflict.
Good of you to continue exposing yourself as an utter clown. When presented with overwhelming evidence that Chinese investments in Africa result in huge improvement in standard of living, education, and infrastructure your counter is look at this bad thing that happened. That obviously negates everything. You are so very intelligent.
