Cuba, alr. China, not a fan tbh.
You realize also that MLMs do not support Cuba either, right? They consider it "in the camp of Soviet social imperialism".
How do you feel about Gonzalo?
I don't really consider Cuba social imperialist the way I consider China as such.
How is china "social imperialist?" Who are they imperializing?
Us poor Asian folks. They've trapped Sri Lanka, Laos, and Tajikistan in debt. My country the Philippines narrowly escaped a similar fate had Dutertwat not had stopped clock moment and pulled out of the deal.
Gonna need a source on that bullshit.
Let's see.
Using debt for diplomatic leverage is unacceptable even for the advancements of socialism.
Fuck, you linked Wikipedia, and a pro-US professor who seems to just write a bunch of anti china articles for the Western press.

China is not doing "debt trap diplomacy", that's the world bank and IMFs strategies.
Is China Imperialist?
maybe crop your email out the picture, not wise to do here, you know since some no life fascists can be very petty. (Lemmygrad is viewable without an account after all.)
Why are you not a fan of China?
Look at the shit they're doing here in the Philippines and SEA in general. They've been ilegallly fishing a few miles within sovereign territory.
Worse yet our bourgeois "government" (read: big oil funded circus) is run by corporate shills, clowns, and fascists.
This is one reason, I have a few others
The South China Sea is a complicated territory that cannot be answered through the use of sea territories only. Actually, in regards to the 'imperialism' of the South China Sea, China only has 8 installations within the South China Sea meanwhile the Philippines has 10. Vietnam has 25, Malaysia 7, and Taiwan has 2.
So your claim that China is actively imperialising the territory is false. If anything, Vietnam is the one that is actively doing it. But like I said, this question cannot be answered through territorial claims alone.
