    Could it be because the US is a massive hegemonic empire whose tendrils reach into all the world’s politics?

    China is not “imperial” that is absurd. Russia may have nationalist reactionary ambitions but their position in opposition to the greater evil that is the US is why there is critical support among some on the left. Russia does not have a massive global financial apparatus including hundreds of NGOs and finance capital used to impose extractivist policies on subjects around the world.

    Neither China nor Russia have even a tenth of a percent of the US 800+ overseas military installations.

    No, but it is tankie to look up to Imperial shitholes like Russia and China.

    Nobody is looking up to Russia and calling China a “shithole” is just racist white supremacist brainworms, which you proved yet again.
