From you:
The negative perception of China by the West is many times simply wrong.
You've done nothing on this thread but support Communist China. You're a liar.
China is NOT a direct and growing threat to the US.
Your BS is through the roof pal.
Many in the West will take something that is a source of pride for the Chinese and will twist it such a way so as to make it appear negative. The example I gave in post #76 of space exploration. A source of pride amongst ordinary Chinese citizen, yet scorned by many in the West.
China has the right to industrialize, progress, move forward, etc. Building an aircraft carrier is one such progress. I'm not advocating that they build 50 carriers. But when China is many times larger than the countries that do have carriers, its not an unreasonable goal. China is 22 times larger than the UK in population and 2 times larger in GDP. It is therefore not unreasonble, for China, with a peacetime budget, to have four aircraft carriers (the British currently have two).
Once again, I support the right for the nation of China to move forward.
