Apples to Oranges and lack of historical materialism is Maoism’s bread and butter. They don’t really have anything good to say, do they?

    I’m not sure if China “owns” the infrastructure they invest in, but they do make deals. “We give you x and you give y.”

    The difference between majority Chinese investments vs. majority Western investments is the fairness and impact of the deals. Whereas majority Chinese investments genuinely help develop their partners on fair terms, majority Western investments purposefully underdevelop their partners and create dependency.

    Investments can be good, they can be bad; unfortunately some can’t imagine it being good and immediately attack it.
