This is a paraphrase of a comment that I posted on Reddit some time ago:

China certainly exports ideology. For example, the notion of "mutually beneficial win-win cooperation" as opposed to the "zero-sum game". These types of ideals serve as the foundation for China-Global South (South-South) cooperation to industrialize and modernize former colonized and developing nations rather than simply exist as raw material exporters. This way, they can finally pry the grasp of the imperial core on their holdings and become an independent, sovereign power. You could consider that exporting "revolution" or "socialism".

I really never thought about it that way. I like it.
