china’s rise and how it was dehumanized for decades as a giant factory pushing out cheap goods has really allowed the world to forget/ignore that it has one of the most traumatic and brutal histories of the nations of the world

and some of the most powerful families in the world that still exist today owe their wealth and influence to how they gladly exchanged money for destroying an entire nation via drug addiction..

i’m still taking my time to learn about chinese history, but the more i do, the more i realize how pathetically uninformed people who view the chinese as heartless robots are. they’re abundant in the west even tho they were very involved in brutalizing china throughout history.
