What has the US done that China hasn't?

It might be the right time to make a list a list of things China did not do.

Drop 2 nuclear bombs on civilian targets, murdering 100,000’s of civilians.

Invade and kill people in:

  • Vietnam
  • The Korean Peninsula
  • Dominican Republic
  • Haiti
  • Afghanistan
  • Iraq
  • Syria
  • Libya
  • Yemen
  • Somalia
  • Grenada

Engineer coups d’etat in:

  • Chile
  • El Salvador
  • Yugoslavia
  • Honduras
  • Colombia
  • Vietnam
  • And more

Impose sanctions denying food and medicines to:

  • Cuba
  • Venezuela
  • Bolivia
  • Iran

Assassinate people who might be terrorists anywhere on earth as well as bomb wedding parties.

Operate 800 military bases around the world.

Defends all of this in terms of its suspect democracy and manifest destiny.

Then we can ask the question:

Would China’s replacement of the US as a dominant force be such a bad thing?
