China is a historic nation reaching back thousands of years, inventor of mass foreign policy, bureaucracy, and more. She has no need to learn governance, nor the art of influence from the United States

This is just stupid. Does Ethiopia have nothing to learn from the rest of the world because that's where humanity (probably) invented fire? Good, useful information spreads regardless of whether a country invented any arbitrary institution in the past

China has a long history of central control of the media, censorship, state propaganda and bureaucratic control all of which are directly relevant to this particular topic. All the poster is doing is pointing that out. It isn’t Ethiopia.

China has institutional knowledge reaching back thousands of years. It does not need US expertise on how to handle foreign policy nor governance. It is arguable that the top layers of society such as technological progress, social hygiene, consumer culture, etc., hold value and are worthy of integration, however, the critical mass of civilization and intelligence within greater Chinese history serves as the best guide for their national affairs.

You say that as if there isn't a massive amount of innovation transfer in all fields, going both ways, with the China and the US, let alone most other countries.
National pride is disgusting.

I am not Chinese, however I can recognize it’s great contributions to humanity. I hold this nation in upmost respect, though I disagree strongly with its domestic policies.
This has nothing to do with national pride and everything to do with the highest respect toward something that is greater, older and much wiser than myself.
