China is willing to do business while giving zero fucks about the environment they are destroying and the global warming they are causing. It really blows my mind people support the china thing so much around here.

China is deploying more renewables than most of the world, in some calculations outspending the rest of the world.
Chinese per-capita emissions have peaked at lower level than US and are already falling.

Per capita is not a useful metric in this measurement. Why is that such a theme?

Bruh, When there's no data, you ask, "According to whom?"
When you have data, you ask, "Why is that such a theme?"

...why wouldn't it be? Who cares if e.g. Greenland has near-zero total emissions if nearly nobody lives there? Emissions are a cost of human existence, of course absolute emissions should scale with population.

Isn't any other significant economy willing to do business with anyone that can pay?

No, most of the rest of the large developed economies have some standards (e.g. against buying conflict minerals) and sanctions against certain regimes. China is quite happy to ignore that if they can get away with it.

Right, go ahead and import Cuban cigars, Iranian oil, and Chinese electric cars.
Nations often impose trade barriers for various reasons. This is a very old tactic.
Another way China is a great equalizer is their willingness to do business with anyone that can pay.
