Prejudice against Chinese is something that is ingrained in many people's mind and hard to overcome.They realized it wayyyyy too late. If Russia had fully embraced China long before the Ukraine war and acknowledged that China was a clear leader in military and technology and harnessed it, instead of thumbing their nose at China and keeping them arms length, they wouldn't be in such a shitshow today. It's funny how Putin clearly banked on his invasion going perfectly to plan and winning so hard that Europe would be forced to continue normal relationships with Russia, not bothering to use their industrial superpower ally as a backup plan to sanction proof their country and improve their military. Not until the sanctions actually came down and China was unable to provide much support anyway.
It's funny how all of China's so called allies like this. They seem unable to view China as an actual superpower and want so much independence to do their own thing, even though all of them are so incompetent and keep fucking up.
But that's not China's problem to solve. They made the wrong assumption so they pay the price for it.
