Yes, personally I'd go live to China for a while before than to the US.

All isn't as white and black as "we have ideals and they're the baddies". The US has a lot of negative things too like x40 guns per citizen [0] or a prohibitively expensive healthcare [1]

I'd also like to learn Mandarin, but that's on me.
