All ex-empires (Iran, Turkey, Great-Britain, France, Spain, China) when talking about a topic compare themselves with the current rooster on the heap.

Every time there’s a China article on HN at least half the comments are about America, or more. Why can’t we just talk about the issues China is having?

Wanting to compare them isn’t the problem here by itself. It’s how every conversation gets derailed with “but America does x”. They both have their own problems.
