If there was any evidence of the Chinese using force, or the threat of force, to compel another country to participate in the Belt and Road initiative it would have been reported in the Western media. China has its faults, there is no need to make up anything, let alone make insinuations. The whole point is that China is using alternatives to force. It is compelled to, since the Chinese lack the naval or air power to dominate Africa or Latin America. Voluntary exchange between China and third parties may undermine America, but America must expect to compete economically with China. The current arrangement, with the US extracting rent from the global economy via the petrodollar and the bond market, is unsustainable.
Please don't confuse military action as the only type of "force". Don't be disingenuous. You need to be better. Much like the "vaccine" mandates globally were never done by "force" right?
If you build infrastructure in a country knowing full well you will take it "by force" when the corrupt third world country you are building it in defaults.....that isn't competing...
You need to get out of your binary thinking pattern. Just because the global American empire is bad and their competitor for world domination is the CCP. That doesn't make the CCP good.
Both are totalitarian organizations. They are both equally bad.
The belt and road initiative is a good place to start. There is never evidence when you don't look...

your theory that they are both equally bad does not at this point have enough evidence... you like Tucker are still speculating...
I think Locke's ghost is letting the formadehyde get to it's brain, and loosen the beast of bigotry, which requires no facts beyond otherness.
Here's your evidence:

Nice. It's hurtful to bigots to confront them with facts.
