Why do they consider racism, orientalism and lies disputed long ago “valid criticism”. Not even mentioning the lack of humility or a will to learn, just constant snarkiness, smugness and an unrelenting feeling of superiority. Just please, engage with us on equal terms and don’t be dismissive.

    The hundreds of millions of people lifted out of poverty in China probably disagree with you.

      Ahh yes, the people lifted out of poverty by loosening the rules regarding private property, allowing western investment, and moving away from planned economy? Or do you consider the period of the great leap forward as lifting people out of poverty because it lifted their spirit out of their bodies?
