>>16026971their GDP/capita is still way lower. They have a huge population and if they just close the wealth gap to richer countries, their economy still has massive potential

You seething over this and acting as though profit through trade is somehow a bad thing is immensely retarded. It's fair to be suspicious of China due to their authoritarianism and expansionism, not due to their economic success which has lifted hundreds of millions of out poverty in the last decades.
