I’ve never been to the US but these goings on concern all of us. Like it or not the US has a lot of influence. It’s position on China, Russia, Climate Change, et cetera, will set the standard for half the globe.
Russia can be a problem. China has a different way of doing business. And if what they do in Africa can be used as a blueprint, it’s not a bad prospect. Becoming a business partner instead of making coups.
I don’t like the way China rules in China but with other countries it behaves much better than the US or the EU.
That might be true presently but would that remain the case if there were no one to oppose them?
I don’t think for a moment that the US is a well-behaved global citizen, but China is absolutely ideologically opposed. Their behavior in the south china sea in recent years is not at all that of a business partner. They have however invested heavily in the region to develop strategic locations.
Time to get out of this shit hole country?
It’s been time. For a long time.

But if they end up in a civil war its influence will be much lower.
Well, it’s lack of influence would be significant.
No opposition to Russia & China…

You are opposing a certainty (US’s behavior) with a uncertain possibility (China’s behavior if it wasn’t there the US).
Now think how many coups have the seal of the US or the USSR and how many have the seal of China.
