    yes. especially when it comes to low-income countries. i don't give a fuck about "chinese imperialism". Not a single country that loaned money from china is unable to pay them back. While the "development" loans from the world bank, imf, wto, ... are desinged not to be paid back. China is actively raising populations out of misery. The anti-china propaganda in europe and the US will increases by the amount of international leverage they lose to china; forcing countries to choose sides cold war style, while the US holds a (almost) literal gun to their heads. You don't have to be a dengist to see that and know which side to choose

        But Bill Gates has a charity! He's so kind giving all that money to Monsanto to develop mono-culture industrial farms in Africa while doing nothing to prevent desertification! They're all getting jobs!
