The discussion is about debts issued by China and their long term impact, which every study shows to be positive
except the ones you just linked, i guess?
you must have been very unlucky when picking which sources to show me :(
I guess it's easier to make a clown of yourself in public than actually learn about the subject you're attempting to debate
you know people only keep you off their blocklist because it's really funny watching the fediverse e-clown ply their trade every day, right?
probably not a door you want to open unless you want the top map to suddenly get a lot less red
also, even if you accept that line of thinking, it still became an invasion when they crossed the 38th parallel
The debt they owed to the IMF
do you understand how money works? you know it's fungible, right?
Oh you mean where actual western debt trap was happening?
even in your cartoon world, china is a member of the imf
and even if they weren't, the largest share of single-source debt was from china
i guess it's easier to defend a worldview if you just like...make stuff up?
any sort of intellectual integrity from you here
said the person who cherry picked like 3 things to respond to, despite spending most of their life accusing others of cherry picking, and responded to them by making stuff up
sure buddy
okay let's pretend it's relevant
selling it services and equipment now absolves a country of guilt
wow, looks like the us is absolved of guilt to a comical degree
comedy hot take understanding of geopolitcs aside, you said they invaded and occupied?
when did they invade and occupy the uk?
I love how you trolls just keep regurgitating the same few tropes
my guy your waking life consists of reposting the same 5 talking points
i'd maybe take a moment of quiet reflection
Chinese Investment In Africa Has Had ‘Significant And Persistently Positive’ Long-Term Effects Despite Controversy
"The results show that Chinese foreign direct investment (FDI) sets in motion a process of transformation in the local economy that damages local competitors but – at the same time – benefits local suppliers to the new Chinese firms as well as their local clients."
this is another way of saying that local businesses are destroyed, save from the ones that become functionally chinese subsidiaries
if the west did this you'd be having a meltdown
study on Chinese investments
you know that when a bank restructures a loan for you, it's not out of the goodness of their hearts, right?
and that's when they do restructure a loan for you, rather than just letting you default and having your economy explode like happened with sri lanka
no debt trap
guys they didn't SEIZE a port they merely forced a country to lease it for 99 years at a bargain bin price
China and Africa: Ethiopia case study debunks investment myths
ethiopia literally had to default on their debt after this article was published
see above

this is the same as the first link

this is about the port again
this just says "development good" without defining what that is
the same metric would justify european colonialism of africa
https://geopoliticaleconomy.com/2022/08/20/china-forgives-debt-africa/
except for all the cases where they don't and countries have to default, i guess
this link isn't relevant
presumably if somebody's shipping weapons to israel, you'd be fine with the houthis sinking that ship? so you don't disagree with the blockade in principle, you just think it's being implemented too strictly?
the meme never mentions supporting houthis, it says praising them
acknowledging somebody has done something good is praising them
hence "If isis starts attacking israel, that does not mean you need to support isis..." is a bad response
