Many of them are dead comments, already. I don’t think there’s a flood, myself, but rather heterogeneous opinions largely based on whether China’s dictatorship is viewed as a positive alternative to American imperialism.
Having lived in both countries myself, I’d prefer America 10 times out of 10, but that wasn’t always the case. Xi in particular has been a terrible thing for China. Imagine if Trump became dictator (and was a decade younger). That’s Xi. He’s made the country more racist and closed off in every way. It’s a tragedy to see.
Xi is driving the PRC down a dangerous and escalatory path path. Nuclear weapons, controlling critical tech, economic punishments, etc. Very few expected it because it was not needed. Deng through Hu made enormous strides in nearly all areas for China. Xi has turned away from that.
