Honestly, I prefer someone else's untrustworthy.
I don't trust China at all, but I trust them over the US, if only because they have no stake in me as a foreigner.
Yet... they play the long game.
They are all in on renewables. The US want everyone on oil and coal, the US wants the junky to keep and dependency.
We are the bad guys.
I don't really see how that is relevant. Or how a country's energy sources alone can determine whether they are "good" or "bad".
It is an example of China being stable and the US being unreasonable and evil.
I don't think it's anything more than short-term versus long-term thinking.
I would not describe either country as "good", but that has nothing to do with the above statement.
The us focusing exclusively on the short term is what I like consider evil, and the stability of a long term-term focus is good.
