None of the statements are disputed and I'm not being paid.
Most of what I wrote is from wall street journal. Are they shills?

Firstly, the statement presents a simplistic view of language instruction in African nations. While it may be true that some African countries teach Mandarin on their curriculum, it does not necessarily mean that Mandarin is more widely taught than any colonial language.
Secondly, the statement implies that China's foreign policies and economic activities are universally positive. However, there have been concerns raised about China's approach to diplomacy, particularly its use of debt-trap diplomacy, where it lends large sums of money to developing countries, often for infrastructure projects, which these countries may struggle to repay.
Thirdly, while it may be true that China has made significant progress in nuclear fusion research and technology production, it is worth noting that China has also been accused of intellectual property theft and forced technology transfer from foreign companies as part of its industrial policy. Additionally, technology production is not the only measure of a country's development and success.
Finally, while China has made significant economic progress in recent decades, it is important to note that economic growth alone does not necessarily translate into improved standards of living for all citizens. China and its political system remains highly centralized and authoritarian.

I said, after colonial languages

I never said it was positive, it was meant as a warning

That is exactly the point I was making that they piggyback of other countries through intellectual property theft.
I was countering the argument that they are stuck in the 50s

They are authoritarian but by international standards they have moved more people out of extreme poverty than any other nation.
I'm not selling Chinese dominance as a good thing I was just pointing out what is happening. All according to WSJ.

t is generally recommended to approach all sources of information with a critical eye and to verify the credibility and accuracy of their claims through multiple sources before accepting them as true.
good_for_uz t1_je9fjqf wrote
I agree, that is why they cite their sources and any amount of time spent looking into what I've said will show it's true.
I'm sorry you think I'm lying but these are all facts based on statistics ( if the statistics are false then what can we go on) and I'm not pro China in fact I'm worried for the future if these facts are true

Once again, these are projections, interpretations and general bull shit.
One who is strong doesn’t need to constantly project strength. Said differently, a yuan backed agreement with Brazil is not representative of anything, except that Brazil is dumb enough to sign up.

They are on track to pass the US GDP by 2035 per Goldman Sachs. It’s not a projection it’s an upward trend.

This has been projected since 1990 and the date continues to be pushed back. The aging population will only make this more difficult if not impossible. In 2035 they will be fully realizing this reality. Come back and remind me when it happens.
