      In yester-year China invaded their friends and allies India & Vietnam. Not long Before that Europe was inventing entirely new ways to shaft over the rest of the world. There’s really no such thing as a “trustworthy” partner in geopolitics, just Alligned incentives&ideologies

            of course you didn’t mention the biggest empire in history shelling out the most suffering to the world.

            it’s the only way you can make china look so bad.

              I’m not making china look bad, I’m making all states look bad by citing the tendancy of them to become imperialist when there exists a sufficient power differential, hence why I cited Europe more critically than china.
