No, but US reputation is way better than China's.

In the absence of a surveillance-free device, people prefer the one with the better rep.

Where? Maybe in the west, certainly not in the rest of the world. China didn't start a war that killed 1million people not even 20 years ago. Westerners don't care about that but that's to be expected.

You are right, Chinese govt didn't kill only 1 million.

The US military complex is beyond dirty and its grip on govt power makes everyone sick in the West and the East.

But reducing the US to that and then doing a comparison with the Chinese government and ideology is unfair, in my opinion.

This doesn't qualify for "not even 20 years ago".

bit of a random comparison. You're comparing one country's propensity to invade/ bomb other countries and kill their citizens to another country's internal famine. You could say the Chinese gov was incompetent then, but that famine isn't an example of foreign interference, like the US wars etc. dont think the comparison here holds
