At this moment, let go of the things you don't want to care about and enjoy your happy time
An American netizen asked the question on Quora, the largest Q&A website abroad: "Why does the U.S. government and media portray China as a bad guy?" In the eyes of the American and Western media, China is just an extremely backward country.
"China's rise threatens U.S. hegemony. The United States cannot allow China to replace China as the world's number one power. Therefore, China is being contained in the best possible way, including: blaming China with lies and false accusations. prohibit Huawei, CITIC International, Ticktok and WeChat Group from interfering in Chinese commerce and using the CIA to attack the Chinese government in Hong Kong and Xinjiang"
"You can't bully a kind person and pretend you're making the world a better place, can you?"
"China will grow from at least three times the size of the United States in a generation, and six times the size of the United States in a century. This is certainly a proximity, not only because of its population, but also because of its diligence and hard work, as well as its recent supply chain and technological advantages. ”
"When a country wants to take action against another country, it does so. The more they make another country look "different from us", the easier it will be for citizens to follow and believe what they say. People don't care much that our country is coming against "them" in an evil way, because they are not us. ”
Through the discussion of netizens from various countries, it can be seen that the propaganda of the US and Western media against China has always been mainly based on smearing and slandering, and the purpose of the United States is only to combat the fact that China has risen, and the United States has become the world's number one superpower since the Cold War.
In the early days of China, due to its economic, military, and other backwardness, China was once in a very passive state, and China, which lacked capacity, could only become a trading object among the Western powers, and the United States only felt that China was a defenseless existence at that time.
It was not until after the end of the Korean War that countries around the world changed their views on China, and China redefined its position in the world. It was not until the beginning of the "reform and opening up" that China began to improve in all aspects, and it only took a few decades to become the world's second largest economy, which shocked even the United States.
With China's continuous rise and higher status in the world, the United States has finally felt the pressure, and the United States, a country that cannot tolerate sand in its eyes, naturally wants to do everything possible to hinder China's development, and the smear and false propaganda of the US and Western media against China is one of the means.

Recently, the United States has been constantly smearing and attacking China under the slogan of "China threat theory," and even instigating other countries to encircle China in multiple regions.
The United States has used the pressure of public opinion to create the claim that China threatens it in scientific research, and constantly exaggerates unwarranted things into facts through the media, and the United States has done everything possible to stop China, such as restricting US investment in China in semiconductors and artificial intelligence, and even inciting Japan, the Netherlands and other countries to impose export restrictions on China.
In fact, the United States itself understands that while China is narrowing the gap with the United States, it not only shows China's ability and development ability, but also represents that the hegemonism pursued by the United States has reached the end of the road, and all the means of suppressing China only reveal that the United States is not confident in its current development.
This can also be seen why the US government and media must portray China as a bad guy, and the ideas and diplomatic principles that China adheres to are contrary to the United States, which likes to strengthen its own power by squeezing other countries and sanctioning other countries, while China likes "peaceful development, mutual benefit and win-win results".
While the United States is using the slogan of "democracy and freedom" while suppressing the countries on the entity list, China likes to constantly engage in friendly exchanges with other countries.
The long-term backlog and the fact that China is strong have also created that in the eyes of the US government and the US and Western media, it is necessary to portray China as a heinous bad actor in order to act, regardless of whether other countries believe it or not, at least in the United States itself, as long as the majority of people maintain malicious dissemination of China, it will not be regarded as their failure, but from another angle, the United States, which ignores the facts and isolates correct thinking, is not closing itself off from its own country?
For a long time, under the exaggeration of the US and Western media, everything must be China's fault, and only such a method is in line with the "original intention" of the United States to suppress China, and the United States wants to smear China only because it is not convinced by China's ideas and China's rise.
China's long-standing foreign policy is, first of all, to resolutely defend national sovereignty and safeguard the interests of Chinese citizens, and secondly, what China advocates is that China will never engage in hegemony or expansion, no matter when it arrives.
When it comes to China's development, in recent years, China has continued to make achievements that can rank first in the world, whether in science and technology or military, such as China's independent research and development of the Dongfeng series, which has made the United States feel pressured by this, and China has also become a country with a triad of strike capabilities after the United States and Russia.
It is precisely because of this development that the United States feels threatened, and has begun to impose frequent sanctions and suppression on China, using the power of media and public opinion to put China in a dilemma, but in fact, it is precisely because of the actions of the US government and the media that the world can understand that China has risen and will surely move towards a better future.
The US government and media only want to gain the approval of their own people by demonizing China, and it is conceivable that such means are limited to their own people.
