In a nutshell, Princeton University found that those who dislike the Communist Party of China are predominantly fearful, disagreeable, and introverted, lacking close emotional attachments to others.

Those who like the CPC, conversely, score high on confidence, sociability, conscientiousness, and work ethic. These are what the study calls "traits associated with personal and professional success."

Importantly, the first group only make up roughly 5% of the Chinese population according to the study, which completely inverts the stereotype. It turns out that charismatic, cosmopolitan, open-minded intellectuals are the ones overwhelmingly supporters of the Party. The critics of CPC are precisely the people who are least equipped to build coalitions, mobilize others, or persuade anyone of anything.

It's the intent that matters. Regardless which shit stain got into power, there's continuation of policy at play.

In Canada, we were actually leading in nuclear for a while and today we can't even build a reactor on our own.

Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses.

The Gulf states bet the farm on the idea that the US would provide a security umbrella for them, and now they're finding out that US can't even protect their own assets in the region. So, now they want their money back and will likely start getting rid of US bases that makes them a target.

I don't think it's even that, but more the fact that people making decisions don't even bother engaging with reality. You just have an echo chamber of people telling each other what they want to hear. If you don't do this then you get ejected from the group.
