Views of China have improved recently while views of the U.S. have worsened, to the point where China is now seen more positively than the U.S. in most countries surveyed.
China is one of the few things in the current state of the world that gives me hope, because it has proven that NO amount of propaganda is ever strong enough to defeat material reality in the end, there are people I know that used to be heavily anti China and have gone completely 180 on it nowadays
I specifically remember stating 3 or 4 years ago, ‘Russia is bad but China is worse’ to my nana, I was libbed up real bad in some ways.
I now consider China to be one of the best countries on the planet albeit they do have shit international policy and there are some other legitimate criticisms to be had without resorting to le evil CCP tankie winnie pooh tianenmen or china capitalist Deng betray da revoloooshun nonsense
