Christianity
came to China in the 7th century during the Tang Dynasty. It failed to
gain any mass conversion. Centuries later, the Anglo-Saxon Imperialist
clique, the Brits in particular, tried using religion to convert the
Chinese, hoping to do China in, just like what they succeeded in doing
to the Native American Indians. They failed. Today, according to latest
2023 statistics, only about 2.5% of Chinese are Christians, with
Buddhism being followed by a third of the Chinese population or about
33%. So, this route to colonization of China using religion is closed.
But
they have not given up after that attempt to use religion to colonize
China. Centuries later, the Anglo-Saxon Imperialist, the Brits, tried
again, using opium to drug the Chinese to weaken them by forcing China
to open up to the Opium trade. It was a disaster for China. The Opium
War resulted in China having to compensate, ridiculously so, the British
Imperialist by being forced to cede Hong Kong to British rule for 150
years, after the first Opium War. Much of China's treasures were looted
by the Anglo-Saxon robbers during the two Opium Wars. They are still in
the museums in the West. That was China's century of humiliation.
The
two Opium Wars failed to disintegrate China and divide it among the
eight nations, that were coveting the China mainland, the same way they
divided and colonized Africa.
But, here again, the Anglo-Saxon
Imperialist have not given up despite failing to put down the Chinese
using opium. In recent times, the Trump trade war against China was
waged for the purpose of bringing down China once again. That trade war
is still ongoing, with Dementia Joe escalating it further to include
demonizing China using every dirty trick in the USA playbook. Everything
they could think of - from promoting democracy in Hong Kong, to
protecting the Muslim Uyghurs against mistreatment by Beijing, killing
every Chinese development that they could not compete against like 5G,
Huawei, BYD - you name them, they are doing it. The USA did that to
Japan and likewise to Germany without recourse. China is different.
Nothing
surprising really, as someone commented, even Chinese garlic is being
accused of being used to spy on USA citizens and is a threat to its
National Security. Unbelievable! But nothing is beyond believe in the
USA and you just have to look at the two contenders for the White House
bitching as to who is committing more gaffes every other day. The
country with the best universities is unable to come up with younger
leaders to lead the country. What a joke!

PS. The UK and US are two has been imperial powers that are hitting the dust. Both are plagued by poor leadership and unable to find able men to lead. Britain is already taken over by an Indian from its former colony. No white Brits is go enough to compete with Sunak to be its PM. Similarly, no Americans are good enough to compete with a demented Biden and a scoundrel with low intellect Trump to be their President.
