I think there’s definitely merit to that. There are multiple avenues to achieving that end though and the US suddenly leaving its allies unprotected is probably the worst possible one imo. I am biased though living in Taiwan and having my home country also dependent on our alliance with the US for defence.
Taiwan isn’t an ally it’s a vassal. And you shouldn’t be so excited to be a meat shield for their aggression on the opposite side of the world. Even if you have sympathies for your fascist, genocidal government.
Anyway, that’s not what I said. Nor implied.
China (xi/aka pooh bear). Is ALSO bad. CHINA is ALSO building military bases, secret camps, “police stations”, around the world.
They’ve turned a Democratic Hong Kong into an authoritarian regime. As they seek to do with Taiwan.
They prop up north Korea, supply weapons to Russia, etc., they intern Muslims, they disappear their own people.
(See, China is ALSO, a murderous dictatorship. Get it yet?)
Africa, is their focus at present.
Resources.
They’ve taken over major ports.
They’ve built military bases.
They’re exploiting the people.
They’re just getting started.
I appreciate you kicking off your screed with a (shoehorned) racist caricature just to mark the water level in your brain pan.
Why is China evil? I guess is the topic now? Well, according to you, they want revenge. For what? That time we made them slaves and murdered them by the millions. And how are they going to get that revenge? By making financial investments in overseas ports.
Uhhh, ok now you’ve lost me. I’d kinda just like to not have myelf or my family bombed or shot at and be able to have self determination. Being under the umbrella of US protection is the best way to have both of those things right now.
Rolling back US empire is an unalloyed good.

Oh yes, of course it’s American aggression that’s the problem here, not Chinese aggression.
Seen a map before?
Check out the continent of Africa for a current view of the counterpoint to your argument.
Have you seen nmap before?

You seem angry and myopic.

Payback in some minds, for the century of humiliation.
