New report analyses coverage of China in the British media and the implications of a consistently negative framing for UK policymaking
Hey, when people talk about the bad shit we do, it makes them think we do bad shit!
Obviously, the solution is to complain when they talk about the bad shit we do.
Yeah, bad shit like lifting millions out of abject poverty, passing the hump on emissions, producing 80 percent of the world's solar, focusing on mutual economic benefit instead of imperialism like the NATO bloc, etc etc
lifting millions out of abject poverty
OK, so China has looked out for its own interests and created an economic advantage for a fraction of its own population.
passing the hump on emissions
And yet, still the largest source of methane emission.
producing 80 percent of the world's solar
As a product they can sell. Let's not pretend like this has some altruistic motivation.
focusing on mutual economic benefit
In fact, the BRI is trapping numerous countries in unsustainable levels of debt. At the same time, bilateral trade, though often increasing after the conclusion of a deal, remains one-sided, where China extracts resources for exports but imports cheap finished goods of questionable quality that undermine local manufacturers. reference
India has repeatedly said it will not join BRI because it does not offer a level playing ground to the country’s businesses. reference
Sorry, which part of what you wrote is relevant to the bad shit that China has done?
instead of imperialism like the NATO bloc, etc etc
Let's stay on topic. If you want to discuss NATO, we can do that after.
Let's just ignore the millions in literial concentration camps right?
But but but, China bad boogie man! They can't possibly do anything good.

Yay! Go China go!
Bring the countrywide facial recognition camera systems!
Bring the social credit system!
Bring every service to online-only with facial recognition authentication required!
Bring the Chinese way of life!
I want so much to be controlled by the party! I want to throw away every possibility of my privacy, and my freedoms, and of others also included!
China good!I mean, I'm near to having to say this anyway, as the controlling corrupt right wing party is heavily importing the Chinese-life to our eastern European country.
Oh look, someone figured out that propaganda exists.
The more people see of the CCP the more people want to distance themselves from them. We don't need to be building that empire up anymore.
You have this completely backwards. The world loves China and hates the west more and more.
I really hope that's the case. I don't believe in it, though. It's too hard to resist for most.
