The reason I started talking about myself is because you started an ad hominem attack, which you’re attempting to continue with. It’s falling flat.
I’m not supporting the status quo, I’m searching for objective truth. A broken clock is right twice a day, and the status quo can be correct in some ways - even if it were wrong in every way that matters. If you want to change the status quo for the better, it would be wise to not throw the baby out with the bath water.
We discuss the faults and mistakes of China when it’s appropriate to do so, doing it in this post would be counter productive. It’s basic politics
You’re suggesting that your only purpose for posting here is to promote a political agenda.
“We don’t need no culture except revolutionary culture. What we mean by that is a culture that will free you. You heard your Field Lieutenant talking about a fire in the room, didn’t you? What you worry about when you got a fire in this room? You worry about water or escape. You don’t worry about nothin’ else. If you say “What’s your culture during this fire?” “Water, that’s my culture, Brother, that’s my culture.” Because culture’s a thing that keeps you. “What’s your politics?” Escape and water. “What’s your education?” Escape and water.” - Fred Hampton - It’s A Class Struggle Goddammit!, November, 1969
As I said, it doesn’t matter the reasons, you’re still supporting the status quo. It’s not about your intentions, it’s about the effects of your discourse. The fact is that China’s model of international relations is better than US’s and should be incentivized, the denial of this fact is the same as the support for the opposite affirmation.
This post is supporting change, a better alternative to what we currently have. Proposing change is a political process. The fact that the word politic has become demonized by liberals doesn’t change that fact

That’s copypasta, and it doesn’t even fit in this circumstance, in spite of how much you want it to. How are the effects of my discourse supporting the status quo?
This post isn’t supporting change, it’s a meme criticising the US and painting China as perfect. A meme in a news community, no less. The comparison invites criticism, it’s pretty hypocritical to cry when someone delivers it.

I literally said it, and I’ll reapeat it: “The fact is that China’s model of international relations is better than US’s and should be incentivized, the denial of this fact is the same as the support for the opposite affirmation.”
Without going into the quality of China’s model of international relations, where did I deny that good international relations should be incentivised?
I like the Belt & Roads Initiative, even if it might also include military objectives. Further up I said that China was cooperating with nations to make this project happen. What I don’t like is China’s activity in the South China Sea. You have to completely ignore China’s activity in this area to make the claim you’re making.
Also that whole “if you aren’t with us, you’re against us” philosophy is pure bullshit.

Why wouldn’t we be promoting a political agenda?

I mean sure, that’s fine. I’m glad you’re admitting to your biases, that better helps me find the truth.
There is no such thing as an unbiased lens. There is no neutral third party in international news where everyone has an interest.
Sure, but confirming what another person’s biases are is useful.
