      Yeah its strange how the West always tries to brand this colonialism since it obviously isnt. You would have to be a dumbass propaganda brained piece of shit to believe this is colonialism- especially while the US still practices the modern equivalent to this day.

      The west is desperate to paint it that way, but what justification is there for calling this colonialism? “Debt-trap diplomacy” was the line before, but that didn’t hold up to scrutiny, especially when China outright forgave several African countries’ debts.

      So what’s the line now?
