This fadChina’s economy is already on its last legs, and the general consensus is that it will be Japan’d within the next decade. China could only dream of reaching Britain’s influence and power at its peak. Britain’s peak was truly something else. I’m pretty sure that China will be become pretty much irrelevant in our lifetime.

Aston Martin alone outdo anything else china has ever made. I fail to find even one single chinese brand that has good reputation in terms of quality

The way he cleared the British guy, he’s completely right.  The UK has a lot of influence but no actual power on the global scale.

China is older than the UK. China despite everything has always existed. And will continue to exist. The UK is the one that is falling behind. Its influence in global affairs exists right now because it’s nothing more than a sidekick to the United States. 
 

The UK likes to think it’s still the British Empire. But that died decades ago. It’s time for it to sit down while the actual grownups run things.

China only overtook Japan’s gross domestic product in 2010. In 2023, it will probably struggle to match America’s GDP growth.

Sweetie, the British Empire controlled like a third of the entire planet at its peak. China will never match its influence. Even after its decline, the UK still has more soft power and cultural influence. Notice that you are writing your CCP propaganda in English.

The way posts like this are inherently embarrassing no matter the way you slice them cause:

• 1) If it's someone from a Global North country, it's incoherent lashing out at China due to your own empire(s) dying
• 2) If it's someone from a country in China's vicinity that *may* have valid beef with China, the posts are still simping for dying Western empires.

Bragging about colonial violence and subjugation as a gotcha because you live in fear
