Prevent Western Voters' Anger
For the last two decades, vast majority of Americans and Europeans have been facing stagnation in their living standards. The median wage of the American worker has been flat since the 1970s! Almost all European countries have been stuck in a flat line since the 2008 financial crisis.
Meanwhile, the "disposable" income — wages after all taxes — have been growing exponentially in China.
And Chinese have decent universal healthcare, (practically) free college, world-class public transportation, clean and safe cities, 40,000km of bullet trains and so on.
The biggest fear of Western elites is for their voters to ask, "Hey, wait, why can't we have nice things like the Chinese?"
Thus, the best way to avoid this embarrassment is constant anti-China propaganda. It's also quite successful. On social media, you can see people bring up illogical anti-China talking points every time there's a positive fact about China. For example: A photo of a beautiful metro in China will have comments like "Made with slave labor" or "It's going to fall apart soon."
Brainwashing successful!
Discourage Investors and Countries
There are plenty of articles, fake experts (like Peter Zeihan), and sensational YouTube videos about the impending collapse of China's economy. First, they serve the purpose mentioned earlier.
Second, this serves to discourage investors and other countries from investing in China, whether it's buying Chinese bonds/stocks or directing FDI or signing up for infrastructure projects or strategic relations with China.
Obviously, this is not working so well, since 147 countries have signed up for China's Belt and Road Initiative; and as recently UBS' Chief said, "Global bankers are bullish on China. We don't read mainstream media!"
Justify all Immoral and Illegal Activities
America is losing to China in every way possible. Since the US has lost the ability to compete, it has to resort to the "Tonya Harding Strategy" of bashing the kneecap. Thus, the US has placed sanctions on 500+ Chinese tech companies. The US coerces other countries to reject Huawei 5G telecom infrastructure; tells Europe to decouple from China; and even successfully stopped the sale of a small semiconductor German company to China. Such illegal, immoral, anti-capitalist, anti-free market actions can be totally justified if China is portrayed as evil.
Turn Muslims Against China
China is surrounded by many Muslim countries; and China's Silk Road trains go through many Islamic countries. This is why the US endlessly cries crocodile tears about Uyghurs. The goal was to turn the public sentiments in Muslim countries against China. Furthermore, the US can also fund/arm Islamist terrorists against China — like in Pakistan to disrupt the Gwadar seaport built under China's CPEC. Once the public is deeply convinced about China's "genocide," they will view terrorist attacks as justifiable retaliation.
However, this grand plan seems to have failed for the most part. The Organization for Islamic Council (OIC) has consistently supported China. Muslim countries even have Chinese-built infrastructure projects on their currencies!
And Xi Jinping is in Saudi Arabia this week for an extraordinary and first-ever China-Arab Summit, which will signify an epic change in Middle East geopolitics.
Try Color Revolution
This is America's specialty. From the Tiananmen Square protests to Hong Kong and even the recent anti-COVID lockdown protests, American/European hands have always been the puppet masters to various degrees. The endless anti-CCP/CPC propaganda can always convince some Chinese people to become "freedom icons" and enjoy celebrity status in America. There's also a lot of money to be made for the few lucky leaders of the color revolutions.
China Model is Dangerous of Western Corporatism
The West is controlled and run by banks and corporations. All the politicians are puppets who are bought and paid-for by lobbyists and their corporate masters. In China, the table is turned — the government controls the corporations. This is the core reason and cornerstone of US-China conflict.
Conclusion
The USA and the EU theoretically have freedom, democracy and free-market capitalism. In reality, they have oligarchy, predatory corporatism, neo-feudal economic system, fake elections, and extraordinary (but clever) censorship. This is why their economies are stagnant, the middle class is shrinking, and 75% of Americans and Europeans are saying that their country is moving in the wrong direction.
In 2005, the GDP of China, UK and France were about the same. Then China's economy grew staggering 7-fold, while the British and French economies stayed flat. However, the Europeans are subjected to constant shock-and-awe traumas — financial crisis, COVID, war with Russia, and de-industrialization — and thus are distracted from critical analysis of what's being done to them.
How about the US/EU elites fix their own broken system rather than endlessly demonizing China?

The only effective fixing would require to line up that US/EU "elites" first, and shoot them on the spot. Because all of their actions are deliberate, and they will continue to destroy their substate as long as they exist.

This quote is right on: "The USA and the EU theoretically have freedom, democracy and free-market capitalism. In reality, they have oligarchy, predatory corporatism, neo-feudal economic system, fake elections, and extraordinary (but clever) censorship .
The rest of the world is definitely waking up.
Key word being "theoretically".
If China is the beaming paragon of human rights virtue comparison goal & model then let that resonate & proves how desperate they are. It’s a complete goat rope circus that’s trying to be birthed & implemented.
We are currently seeing the ZEWSmedia trying to blend it all together for some beyond obvious universal programming content & lost in translation fail. Ziowood is toast never be what it was. They did it to themselves.
Lol - Use to take 6 years to get to Mars now it takes a few months. Lol
Continually blending Sci-Fi into a reality when in truth it’s just Sci-Fi FICTION.

1) There is no such thing as US corporations. The corporations are international and don't care about the people of the US/Europe or China. The owners/stakeholders ( born in China or the US) go where they are treated best. Or often multiple countries where they can exploit the citizens and workforces for the lowest labor costs.
2) The governments of China and the US are both technocracies(along with many others) and support the same globalization. The only "attacking China" is the propaganda in this article.

3) Very few people aside from the billionaires (in China), enjoy all the "good" stuff(like bullet trains) this article talks about. Most are facing lockdowns and covid restrictions.
4) Economically people in China are slave cattle. Their working conditions are poor and workers have few rights or freedoms. If the Xi administration had its way every city in China would be like Foxconn.
5) The belt and road is a fraud. Sure the terms and deals to build stuff is better than the World Bank/IMF, but they are still built on debt at interest to the same private central bankers that have been in power for over 90 years: "BIS to throw open doors for 90th anniversary" [Link]

This other article posted on SOTT(see below) is far more accurate about what is going on in China. This article is a disaster(taking one from Trump!).
