>the second most powerful man in the world is just an insecure thirdielmao
>>214634448Where’s the lie though?
every single Chinese is like this
Yes, it's called the Century of humiliation
>>214634448"Insecure Thirdie" feels a bit redundent at this point.
>>214634448You can argue China was stagnating 1-2 centuries before that while Europe was going parabolic but he's essentially right though
>>214634448>He confirmed Xi's portrayalbased knower?
>>214634448i want the BRICS macaco to see this
I mean he's right though
>>214635112>>214634484How can you be the center of the world when you influence isn't present in 90% of the world?
literally nothing wrong with that statement.china used to be comfortable in their own corner of the world. left idle want nothing from the world, they literally have everything they'll ever want. until brit came to buy their goods. first they sell useles trinkets and curiosity like automata. soon they sold them opium and centuries of humiliation started.you retard just forced the chinese to be more proactive in the global world least it'll be exploited again.
>>214634448>He confirmed Xi's portrayalDid you even read the image you posted?
>>214635140They manufacture everything
>>214635140it's just their usual jingoistic central kingdom cope whilst calling everyone else a barbarian kingdom. they had their chance for colonization but instead reverted to their regular chimp out phase in ming dynasty
>>214635140they've been influential global power since forever, even rome recognized it
>>214635173Opium was already a thing in China, what the British did was make an expensive luxury good affordable for the everyday person.
>>214634448is the most powerful man in the world any better?
>>214635224By "recognized", you're of course using the sense of "was aware of".
