China does horrible things, but to claim the “western” world is some guiding light of morality is ridiculous.
Propaganda works both ways, our society gobbles it up just as much if not more than China and it’s allies

No one says the USA is the beacon they claim to be, but a world led by China is a stark contrast.
Right now the US exports ideals like the idea of democracy. Its power gives countries like Canada and Iceland coverage to be a free society without bully or repercussion.
An unchallenged China would export a surveillance state. It has and would bully anyone they could to act like them. Or they will make you pay until you do what you want. They will act with impunity.
People all comfy in their western democratic society don’t realize the alternative. Its stark.
Imagine you typing a message on CP the says CCP sucks and Chinese agents show up to your door to threaten you or even take you. The Canadian government helpless because China will lie about kidnapping you, and then when exposed just threaten economic war.
Its not that far off in a world with an overly strong China and weakened Western democratic society.
