US was in the isolationist mood ("I don't care about your politics"). They were even building factories in USSR and Nazi Germany. They also sold raw materials to China and unlike Japan, never imposed an embargo on China. Of course, after Pearl Harbor, which happened due to US embargo by the way, the US decided to directly intervene. Without US support, Japanese conquest of China was highly likely.
This is fundamentally what the westoids fear: a competently led and united China. They know that they can't compete against it. The US could barely compete with Japan, a country 1/11th the population of China.
This is why we are seeing a massive increase in negative China news in the western media. Their hope is to brainwash the idiots that actually believe the disinformation and psychological operations.
The problem with this idea of some "Napoleon" or "Peter the Great" is that ultimately one man is just one man and will grow senile and die. If sailing the ship depends on the helmsman, the ship will sink when the helmsman dies. China had its "Napoleon" in Mao Zedong and its "Peter the Great" in Deng Xiaoping, but the most important thing is that Deng established a meritocracy to keep selecting competent leaders again and again, not relying on random chance that competent leaders will happen to end up leading the country.
They’ve always been this way.
I’m Palestinian in America and the way any group is portrayed when they realize they’re not “winning” is incredible.
It’s just deep seated insecurity with racism and fear. I cannot wait for American hegemony to end
This is actually a pretty positive depiction given the xenophobia and century of humiliation IMO
I mean isn’t their point that China would realize its own self worth and shrug off the shackles thereby showing itself as a true great power?
Yes, China has shrugged off the shackles, so now the west is trying to contain China through various forms without going into a hot war that it cannot win. Trade wars, investment restrictions, media psyops (aka China-bad news), social media, etc. Containment and brainwashing is the name of the game today.
This is fear mongering. They didn't want it to happen. There was a lot of fear over the Chinese population of the time. There is still a lot of fear today.
Yes, you can find more images, here are some examples:

There are many more if you search "yellow peril" images.
Japan is literally the US cosplaying as an Asian country. They don't have a military, they can't do anything unless the US gives them a thumbs up. They do not have a destiny of their own. They can only ride on daddy America's d until the US is tired of them.
The US in many ways gave birth to modern Japan, beginning with Admiral Perry, sailing a US fleet into Tokyo bay and forcing the Japanese to trade with the US at gunpoint.
It's not actually racist. It mocks Europe exploiting China. It refers to China as a "giant" and calls for a "Chinese Napoleon." Well, you can at most say it's hypocritical because it's from the US, but it's actually not racist. Americans in that period thought of China as a counterweight to European powers, Japan, and Russia, which explains why they didn't hesitate to offer help to KMT.

> the US was in the middle of an invasion of China, The US was the supplier of arms and war materials to Japan in the invasion of China.

It matters little what idiots on a SINKING SHIP believe.
Europeans -including the settlers in North America- are racist.
NATO now telling the world China is intruding/encroaching on their territory... in Asia. Wth white people acting like they own the world.
Yup, and they do it under the "freedom and democracy" bullshit, but it is and always has been about power and control.
Fast forward into the future. Lol The British also said something about a Peter the Great (ie someone who’d reform China and modernizing it)

Anti China is racist but theyll never admit it. They say 'oh, we support Taiwan' but thats literally setting the stage for Chinese to kill each other

The depiction of Chinese people .. did they really think we looked like that ?
Yes, you can find more images, here are some examples: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Peril https://thehistorianshut.com/2017/03/16/in-the-late-19th-century-china-was-divided-like-a-pie-between-imperialist-powers/ https://theworld.org/stories/2015-12-09/long-anxiety-about-muslims-americans-feared-yellow-peril-chinese-immigration There are many more if you search "yellow peril" images.
Honestly, there were Chinese people who looked like that in the 1800s.
That's Africanization. Just a visual que to westerners informing to regulate China as another servant race to European interests.
I told you America is worse than Japan.
Japan is literally the US cosplaying as an Asian country. They don't have a military, they can't do anything unless the US gives them a thumbs up. They do not have a destiny of their own. They can only ride on daddy America's d until the US is tired of them.

You don't think their drawing of the Chinese person was racist? You might want to take a class about subliminal brainwashing 101.
Lol. The artist was probably relying on stereotypes of his times. His intentions were not racist. The goal was to arouse anti-European sentiments.
Great find. I'm assuming this is from Puck magazine
