Oh please, we all know the real reason China is seen as a "threat" by Americans.

    It’s all about money and power, mate. Not race. The US and the Soviet Union are both predominately Caucasian and they were at odds for the better part of the 20th Century. Race has nothing to do with it.

    When it comes to China, racism isn't exactly hidden.

    What are you on about? You didn't address my counter-point. You merely restated this blatant propaganda.

    You still aren't addressing my point. "Buddy" here is an attempt to bring me down a peg. You are using logical fallacies.

    I never dismissed your claim. I did counter it with logic. You have yet to counter in return.

    The fact that you think you countered it with logic really highlights the fact that you're not very good at logical thought. The fact that westerners are racist doesn't preclude them from hating other systems such as USSR for other reasons. The fact that you don't understand this shows you lack any capacity for logic. You keep pretending racism isn't the reason westerners hate China, but the fact is well documented. So in addition to not being capable of understanding basic logic, you're either a liar or just deplorably ignorant.

    Maybe next time you try to pretend to be intelligent do it on a topic you have clue about.
