    Of course modern China is an empire. Just without overseas military bases. A soft empire, one might say.

    4 Chinese bases

    So China does have oversees bases and is therefore in fact not a “soft empire” but a fully fledged empire.

    Don’t know why you bring up the US, we were talking about China. Which is by your definition an empire and should be treated as such.

    You just went through a regime change operation of Russia. Or did you think Trump and all those extremist right-wing governments in Europe won all on their own?

    Putins propaganda machine made those happen. They infiltrated so many social media groups spreading lies to make everyone more xenophobic so they can invade Ukraine and all previous USSR regions without them getting help.

    On Lemmy, they are mostly hiding in your instance.
