FWIW I do not buy into the "China bad, we good" narrative either.
The US has done really fucked up things, bombed countries for freedom, there has been recent events as well. I do not even think they were ever the "good guys" they thought they are. In Hollywood movies, sure, but in reality? Nah.

I never presented that narrative.

I'd agree. But what does this have to do with an analysis of China?
