It's colonialism by another name and we should be honest about that: the PRC dreams of being a colonialist power. You can see the propaganda justifications for it - the '5000 years of history' (BS, as a side note; China is about as old as Greece and younger than Egypt). 7/11
That 'old and civilized' argument should sound familiar to anyone who has studied the 'civilizing' adventures (read: colonial bloodbath) of modern European powers. I worry that we don't recognize the game because it comes from outside of Europe - but *it*is*the*same*game* 8/11
I am reminded of the number of well-meaning but foolish western left-leaning intellectuals who fell for the Soviet Union's 'anti-colonialist' line, as if Soviet conquest of Uzbekistan wasn't imperialism or colonialism. I suppose the Kazakhs never wanted that Aral Sea, right? 9/11
Actions speak louder than words, and the PRC's actions say clearly that Xi Jinping wants to be a colonialist power. Say it until it sinks in: the PRC aims to be a colonialist power. It is *doing*the*colonialism*right*now.* 10/11
Xi Jinping wears a conquistadors' morion; he wears it in Xinjiang where he is doing genocide, and in Tibet which he is oppressing, and in the S. China Sea. So treat his protestations of 'sovereignty' the same way you treat Cortez' claims to being civilized; as rubbish end/11
