Opinionated - Anti-American Intellectual Movement in the World

[MultaniGuy]

Background:

The Iraq and Afghanistan wars fanned Anti-Americanism throughout the world.

Now with China soon to become the world's largest economy in GDP Nominal, USA's unipolar moment is being challenged.

Then there were some intellectuals from China, Pakistan, Russia, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Japan, Brazil, France saying "Why should I care about America, it is not my country, therefore I do not care about it."

Or the faults of American society was explained:
1) School shootings
2) Alcoholism
3) LGBT
4) Feminism
5) Kicking out children of the house at the age of 18

I am fine with anti-American thing. What is intellectual about it ?

This is what China can utilise in the developing world, especially Muslim countries to increase their popularity.

Don't need to have a particular liking towards the Chinese, their governance, their culture, just a common enemy. And you simply can't outcompete the Westerners in this aspect due to their global dominance in the entertainment industry, beauty standards (which heavily influence perception), and language for so long.

And that's what you exploit to increase positive perception within the country.

Why does I do not care about it become Anti-American, Intellectual or Stupid?

I do not care about Somalia. Am I Anti-Somalian? Intellectual?

I would rather trust the Chinese Communists than say the bloodthirsty senators in USA.

I would rather trust none because both are two sides of the same coin.

Multi-polar world is better, you can extract more from it.

True, but I have studied with Chinese, at least they are better than Americans though.

Yes, you do

China is always being mentioned somewhere in your country because subconsciously the Americans fear the Chinese

It started with China cannot build anything, it became China builds cheap copies, then it was Chinese equipment is untested, and soon it will be China is a grave military threat to the US and it's allies

Just wait till the J-10C scores it's first kill in the subcontinent and the panic in the west

Exactly, This is not China of 1989 or 2001.

This is China of 2022 we are talking about.

They have been mentioned for a long time but just not highly noticed.

This a very natural thing for somebody on the otherside of the planet to say during the mid 1800's.

Even the US public was saying let Japan run amuck in Asia...why should we care. If they kill everybody in China and British India what is it to us?
