That is entirely down to China.

If they continue in their current mode than things will only get worse, they can change that by changing their behaviour, I hope they do but I am not holding my breath.

If we could define and unite 'global community,' warmongers would be redundant.

a) human rights is a “joke“ to them (kinda like their business) but (!) b) things started to get serious (since three years ago) when it comes to China’s place in the world–China gave the world covid (and they were far from being transparent about it); China has caused (and it’s still causing) all kinds of problems, pain and suffering to billions of people around the world; and b) they still have the audacity to provoke and threaten peaceful nations, jeopardizing the stability and peace in the region; c) they’re liars, arrogant and full of hatred. the world doesn’t like China and the relationship with the global community is going to remain sour for a long time. .. right now the situation is not good (at all), but it can always get worse(!); it’s up to them.

TLDR version: In a word: Consolidation.

Comment: The so-called "global community" (lol) will continue to consolidate its relations with one another, continue to build new arrangements that will help weaken China's ambitions and stifle its predatory economic and diplomatic aggression. Supply chains will diversify. Military pacts and coordination will intensify, and a general global disdain for the Communist Party's "lone wolf" style Sino-Chauvenism will continue to fester around both Asia and the wider world.

global community is not just USA,EU,Japan,Canada,Australia or NZ...so I dont thinnk there will be any big change at all.China will keep grow and West will work hard on selfdestruction of its economies because of USA interests/just see what is going on in EU right now-and this is just beginning/,rest of countries will cooperate with China even more than they did until now.

"global community"?? What exactly does that mean? As we have seen over the Ukraine conflict, plenty of divergent opinions in countries around the world.

Some will continue to be friendly to China, others less so.

Except that it kind of is mate. English is the language of the world, those countries all speak English, and they are the primary members of the G8.

I think most of the world has a soft fear/dislike of China, and there is a lot of racism against Chinese people everywhere right now, but recently there has been significant support in Asia for China being a "rebalancing act" in global geopolitics.

.. people really like to worry about ”little” things; .. .. “global community” – the richest, most influential countries in the world plus their allies; the global community is not Russia, North Korea and Iran aka China’s buddies; .. some weird comments here, probably the same people that downvoted me (keep them coming); (I know, most likely it’s business as usual with China but bottom line is that nobody likes China); worry more about what the CCP does to its own people and the safety of Japan and Taiwan.

"Global community" in this context mean western US vassal states. Who will of course continue to dance to the masters drumbeat of anti China. The majority of the world does not "fear" China and in many cases sees China as a force for good.

Regardless of what the "Global community" thinks or does, China will continue its economic and social growth at a rate that almost all of the GC can only dream about.

Last time I checked, the best countries ( /where everybody wants to go ) in the world are still the US, the UK, the EU, Australia, NZ, Japan, SK and Canada; the free world ( freedom – something that China doesn’t like ) – these have more friends, and good ones too ( = “ the majority of the world” ). China’s friends are the anti-Americans/poor/communists/terrorists of the world; everything else is just business.

I dont see any countries seeing China "as a force for good "

I just take, as one example, their bald faced lying about the "reclamation " and militarilisation of numerous reefs and rocky outcrops in the sea , claiming absolute exclusion zones that impoverish countries reliant on simply fishing in these areas {Phillipines } , and the view that all the ocean surrounding belongs to China .

I also see China's economic dominance revealed as a flimsy house of cards , a situation of China's own making.

Bad China.

Probably still the same IMO. Despite all the questionable things China has been doing since time can remember and even up to the present, the global community can't do much about the Uncle Xi's country because Beijing essentially has the entire world by their wallet. Look at your surroundings and what you're wearing right now, how many of those you see come from China? I'm not an alarmist nor a China-bootlicker, but Uncle Xi played his cards very well and placed the country in a position where it will be mutually destructive to any country to take any punitive action against it. But, if we begin to shift away from China and look for other economic partners, we can lessen our dependency on it. Like all relationships, dependency is power. The more needy a partner is, the more power the other party can leverage. Nobody wants that.

The deglobalization, onshoring trend is ongoing and will lessen our dependence on communist-ruled China. We'll be making more semiconductors and cars. This is something the Western billionaires have long dreaded, and I love it.

The political posturing from all sides will continue, but business to business will remain the same as it always does. Everyone wants to make money...

If by 'global community' one means the map published by Zhou Lijian, deputy director of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs Information Department, on Twitter of the 'International Community' as seen by Western media, then one expects the same constant provocation from the West and the same patience and restraint from China as it awaits the collapse of the West from gross political ineptitude and the final failure of piratical Corporate foreign piracy.

If one means the 'global community' as a whole, that is, the planet, China will continue to win new friends and expand its trade empire worldwide with its Win-Win foreign policy of fair trade and building international infrastructure rather than destroying it with bombs. Long term vision versus short term profit taking. BRICS may be the chrysalis of a new and more equitable United Nations...

You said it.

And seeing China's behavior, I can see it deteriorate.
