This makes for interesting propaganda from the Sinophobe “realist” wing of the ruling class, but it has cause and effect in reverse. China would be nothing without the support of Western capital. No Western investors, no Western borrowers, no Western export markets, no Western consumers=No China. It’s as simple as that. And China’s authoritarianism is merely a test market for the kind of authoritarianism the global ruling class wants to have on a worldwide basis. What is China being accused of? Stealing Western intellectual property (a form of state-capitalist monopoly privilege), which means that China doesn’t really produce anything on its own.
