The classic example Is Egypt where they decreed their leader a god. But that was pretty standard practice for a lot of the area in the ancient Days in the East. While Rome had elections and when the Empire started and they declared themselves a god it was for the benefit of their Eastern provinces and they were roundly mocked for it at home.
Egypt was systematically exploited and destroyed by the European powers during their various reigns and colonization efforts of Northern Africa. If you aren’t aware, a lot of these colonial ideals bled into indigenous ones. I am aware of Egypt…I am also sure you’re aware of the connection of the divinity and head of state has in the West that Egypt was inspired by and the absolutism of late 17th-19th century Europe? Strange parallel there…mayhaps you give it more thought.
It will also bring a return to the 1980s style meddling in other governments. Supporting military coups and death squads in Latin America and elsewhere.
That has always been America. China is currently using it’s resources and funds to develop and increase diplomatic ties with nations around the world while the Western IMF debt traps and exploits these nations for resources. Big difference.
I could also point out that China is not actually communist. They are playing to the greed of Western capitalists to Garner our technology and get their factories built for them. Long term it’s smart, it sucks for all of their workers though, and all of the pollution that is not well regulated.
70% of industry is owned by the state and all crucial industry is contained in there. If you’re going to speak on the economic practices of the CPC, I implore you to actually understand them. You understand a little, because you aren’t wrong on this

You are absolutely correct. However you are also forgetting that they have plenty of their own indigenous achievements and designs too. You are also forgetting that they are the ones to have built those productive forces, the schools, the institutions all for the people to garner that technology and institute it for their own good. What has America done with that tech?
