And before, who controlled this area, American ships?

Hey China, when the country that committed atrocities became loved, and you one the victims of that atrocities become hated. Maybe it's time to wake up and realize you've wasted all your "victim" points and have become the bad guy ?

Japan was hated in the 1980s in America. They're acceptable now, because their economy is a lot weaker.

kibousha, your mind games don't work with everyone

Utter garbage nonsense, sorry if that distorts the pro CCP narrative.

Nobody “hated” Japan in the 80’s. There will always be xenophobes, but that’s not even close to the same thing.

Feared economic take over? Absolutely. Respected and admired? 100%. Japan also enjoyed pop culture and socioeconomic ties China could only dream of.

No, the disgust and distrust of the modern CCP is nothing like economic angst over the power of the Japanese economy in the 80’s.

Lying doesn’t help your case.

China has backed down so often it has become the standard operating procedure.

The Japanese bet on the wrong thing, it is better to be friends with neighbors, because if there is mutual understanding, many old controversial issues could be resolved, but now the whole “train has left” is the fate of the puppet country. For the second time in history, Japan "saws the branch on which it sits"

hoo:

Yeah sure, that's why they went on a rampage, smashing Japanese appliances and cars on TV, and attacking Japanese-looking people. Chinese-American Vincent Chin's family won't forget those days.

But yeah, you're right, the xenophobic sentiments are now off the scale because China has done even better than Japan. Over-producing solar panels, EVs and other hi-tech stuff. What next, over-producing food becomes a crime?

The western mindset means that the west still wishes China would only produce T-shirts. But how DARE the Chinese make high end electronic stuff? How dare they be the biggest producers of renewable energies? Only the west should be allowed to do that. But who's stopping them? Maybe if they'd spend a lot less on wars, they might have enough money to do some good (and even help their poor).

Single murders are not a trend in a nation of 300 million.

If we could trust the quality and safety of the food coming out of China, it could become popular. Will never happen, though, considering the pollution there.

But how DARE the Chinese make high end electronic stuff?

You have to prove your quality first which can't be done by stealing.

How dare they be the biggest producers of renewable energies?

No one can know how much coal is burned to produce the so-called green energy products from China.

Only the west should be allowed to do that. But who's stopping them? Maybe if they'd spend a lot less on wars, they might have enough money to do some good (and even help their poor).

At this point you are still working on surpassing Libya. Maybe unpegging your currency to the dollar would be a start.
