China is a modern superpower, as is the US, but a qualitatively different superpower. The US uses military aggression, coups, and sanctions to impose US corporate interests worldwide. China is a peaceful power that respects national sovereignty, mutual development, and non-interference.

Despite opposing imperialism, too many in the Western left, recycle Western anti-China narratives that liken Chinese conduct to Western imperial conduct, as in Sri Lanka, Congo, and Occupied West Bank. Some even criticize China for lack of aid to Cuba.

The US empire has at least 750 military bases in 80 countries. China has just one, in Djibouti – part of a UN mission against piracy.
