Hah, you clearly don't have a balanced view. US doesn't install pure puppet oligarchs and mass surveillance tech. CCP does whatever it takes to expand economic influence and tighten their autocratic control.

TLDR: CCP doesn't answer to the people. US gov at least has open elections.

I agree that at this moment, a poor person in central africa should not care 1% between US and CCP. But for their descendants, yes they should care.
