Forum on Rise of China and implications to US and Europe

‘NEW YORK, March 20, 2017 — Experts discuss how Europe and America might stand to achieve shared goals while navigating China's growing relationship with the West. Speakers include Sebastian Heilmann, La Repubblica’s Federico Rampini, Ambassador Peter Wilson, Susan Shirk, and Asia Society's Orville Schell.’
 
This forum was on the book by Sebastian Heilmann titled Everything under heaven…. After a short exchange the discussion turned into another China bashing session with the panel of pretentious white gods passing derogatory and negative comments about China and Xi Jinping. China is unreliable, untrustworthy, did not play by the rules, mischievous intent, a country of liars and out to destroy the world by hook and by crook.
 
Unfortunately I was not there for this would be what I would ask the panel of righteous, high and mighty white gods if they have read the history of China in the last 200 years and what the white gods, their forefathers did to China. Did they know that they invaded China, robbed and looted China, defying all ethics and international rules, forced China to sign thousands of unequal treaties with the barrel of the gun, forcing China to sign all its rights and national interests away, annexing territories/colonising China, bankrupting China with compensations and reparatory extractions for wars against China and to pay for their opium burnt by China, and still forcing China to buy their opium.
 
How righteous and ethical were their forefathers, all white gods? Everything they are accusing China was applicable to their white forefathers. How they forced China to trade with unfair rules, unfair playing fields, burning the Summer Palace and looting everything in there, and today trying to sell the loots back to China? Today they are claiming themselves to be champions of free trades and globalisation, honourable, righteousness! And I am not even talking about the rest of the colonised countries in the whole world that became their victims and how they were conquered, ruled, robbed and looted by the European countries under the rule of the gun and their white God and gods.
 
Compare the excesses and behaviours of their forefathers to what China is today. Who are the evil ones? Did they play be the rules then, or did China play by the rules today?
And the guests at the forum, also white gods and some coloured gods which, by their appearances you can guess that they were the descendants of slaves or nigger comfort women of their white masters, and they were all just as righteous and dismissive in their comments about China.
 
What is wrong with China wanting to continue to play within the rules of the free trade systems designed by the white gods while the white gods are crying foul all because China is making the best out of it. Now they are demanding to change the trade system they designed quoting human rights and labour rights. Did they remember they did not care a damn about human rights and labour rights and national sovereignty when they invaded and looted China for 200 years and the rest of the world as colonies?
 
How pretentious and hypocritical are these white gods? There were two guys trying to be rational and balanced, Sebastian, the author and the British guy. Watch the video to see how they behave, like white gods, doing all the right things and China the bad guy doing all the bad things. I wanted to puke looking at how they acted like the good gods, the ones that were wronged by China and they were trying to teach China what is right and wrong. It is not an exaggeration to say that the wealth of the western world today was built on what they robbed and stole from the rest of the world. They did it fairly?
 
See this video to see how the white gods were telling their white lies in straight faces. And I was not alone to feel so disgusted by their cheap and shameless charade, especially that little Italian guy.

Basically the West leading by the US is the biggest control freak and that poses the biggest threat to the development of the world that including all countries. The West leading by the US is realizing that China is finally catching up and this is the reason for them to constantly make up stories to make people to believe China is a threat and China must be contained. But in fact, rising China has been making positive contribution to the world, especially to the developing nations who have not been benefited from the West. Rising China is a different than the traditional dominators from the West. China is for peace, stability and prosperity for people from all over the world. The West leading by the US only cares about the well being for themselves at the expenses of others. We can see that from all events happened in the past. How come I don't hear the complain from China about the threat from the West leading by the US? The West leading by the US not only they are doing everything they can to contain China themselves but they are very good at creating conflict between China and its neighboring countries and using other Asians to fight against China
 
Spadey SayI am actually quick sick to hear of how it is the West who should decide what China should do. China should do this, China should do that. It would be more productive and do the world a lot of good if America and the west spend more time in thinking what it should do for its own countries in the very criticism that they are directing at China.

I greatly applaud China for their dedications and hard work. With that said, you guys should see some of the negative comments posted on many of the videos that were uploaded on the CGTN channel. Many are from the Americans. Also, China Uncensored channel ln YouTube are always posting their anti China propaganda videos and fake news about China and guess what? Many Americans, especially the Trump supporters and the right wing Americans. (they sure hate China, do they?)

This forum was very, very well articulated and I loved how it showed different sides of the spectrum. To those that are still disillusioned about the Red Menace, I'd like to say that your opinions are outdated and are a threat to the modern world.

Not a well informed panel, hence very little information except for their arrogance.

You're more likely to be killed by a US soldier on this planet than a Chinese one - that's just statistics. We should look forward to China's rise, the world needs a realignment in the balance of powers.

These people behave as if today were still the heyday of imperialism. Well, news flash, the Chinese are becoming a major power. The west could either deal with the situation in a pragmatic way, or hang on to delusions of superiority and attempt to isolate China. I guess it's no surprise they chose the latter option.
