Why is the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) the biggest threat to the whole world?

The CCP is a huge threat to Western-style democracy throughout the world. It can demonstrate to all these democracies that China’s governance is most effective and beneficial for the Chinese people, and for people everywhere else as well…

China protected its 1.4 billion citizens from COVID-19. From Worldometer, February 3, 2022:

China eradicated absolute poverty by elevating 800 million people, which is more than twice the size of the US population!

China built the world’s most spectacular infrastructure of roads, bridges, high-speed rail, airports, etc.

China grew to become the world’s largest economy by GDP PPP in a stunningly short 35 years, starting from a totally impoverished nation!

China is helping countries in the Global South, as well as in Europe, build their infrastructure via the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

China is helping countries in the Global South vaccinate their populations as the rich Western nations abandoned them through vaccine hoarding.

China is pursuing diplomacy throughout the Middle East rather than bombing the shit out of the region. Recently, it signed a 25-year cooperation deal with Iran.

China is negotiating with the Taliban for the future of Afghanistan instead of invading and occupying the country for 20 years.

China is leading the ASEAN countries in peaceful trade through RCEP, the world’s largest free trade bloc.

China is inviting all nations to participate in its space station program, including the United States. Recall that USA banned China from the ISS.

China hasn’t fought a single war since 1979, whereas America has fought wars in Afghanistan, Bosnia, El Salvador, Grenada, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Panama, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Yemen, etc.

Turn after turn, China has proven its peacefulness and benevolence.

What if Western democracies admire the CCP and decide to adopt the Chinese model of governance? That would be absolutely tragic!
