Ah yes the roads, hospitals, ports, airports, schools, trains, manufacturing facilities, and green energy initiatives done in dozens of global south countries has only helped themselves. I guess Africans can't use roads or something, is that what you think? Only the Chinese get to use the railway in Kenya?

Stalking post history

As of writing my comment you had 3 thinga in your posting history. Two from 5 years ago and one from today. Don't you think it's exaggerative to call it stalking to simply make note of that?

doesn't change what I said.

It means, most likely, that you registered many accounts ages ago and are using it as an alt. This does actually cast your comment in a particular light.

The PRC with all its power has done fuck all is my point.

I believe your point, your thesis, which you led with, is, "fuck China". And for, as I already noted, not doing enough. Your rehashing here is pointless. If you want to die on the hill of it doing, "fuck all" then that is certainly a choice.

The USSR did more for the world with a fraction of the economic power of China.

The USSR did many great things. It also collapsed and took scores of socialist countries with it. It was also Zionist and integral to the creation of this settler-colonial genocidal project. As scientific socialists we must acknowledge not just what factors favor revolution and that we can impact, but what factors destabilize a state after the early stages. Much of the collapse of the USSR was due to failed internal struggles and organization, with Kruschev's nonsense as a canary in the coal mine.

I also would never accept the claim that the USSR had a fraction of China's economic power, it was massively productive and for more useful things. Much of China's productivity is for garbage products (not low-quality, just ridiculous products) for export to the US et al. But China is certainly powerful.

Why should I care if China becomes powerful when all they do is care about themselves.

Did you miss the part where I mentioned billions of averted deaths? Do you see zero benefit to the continued existence of a socialist project governing a state eith 1.4 billion people? And China does have a very conservative internationalism that nevertheless benefits the global south.

Useless country.

Objectively wrong.

People in here seem to forget what critical means when they say critical support.

Aside from Iran, Yemen, and Hezbollah, and The DPRK, China is probably next in line for their support to Palestine, but that isn't saying much.

Have they sanctioned israel in any way? No, they restricted the sale of Chinese drones for military purposes, but they still end up in the hands of the apartheid regime.

They haven't restricted any trade on the basis of "israel's" genocidal onslaught. At least Colombia stopped exporting coal to them.

Imports from Israel to China have dropped about 40% since 2022. I agree that it would be more beneficial for Palestine for us to see clear and overt economic pressure rather than quiet moves like this.
