If we took the impressions of the leaders of our world powers as they were 200 years ago (which is essentially what you're doing), we'd find that Japan was racist, America was racist, Great Britain was racist, Germany was racist, Russia was racist, Spain was racist; hell, we'd be hard-pressed to find a decent human in power in all the world. That said, this isn't 200 years ago. China may have been the middle kingdom with control over their part of the world in the 1700's, but their hold has already been broken long ago and they still have to deal with a multilateral approach to the region. Unlike us.
The Chinese will be just as racist as the Japanese and the Americans today.
. . . whenever any government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundations on such principles and organizing its powers in such forms as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. |
