I like how they paint China as "earning money on the conflict," like the military industrial complex of the US and other NATO nations are actually just giving shit to Ukraine without strings attached to every single bit. The west are the ones that thought they would be made richer, and that putting so many restrictions on Russia would also bring China down completely. So far Ukraine has only won over the libs and moderate conservatives because they are anti-Russia no matter what (similar to the Dems "vote blue no matter who" headspace). They also were successful in getting Putin to okay the operation due to further and aggressively trying to join NATO.
