China is interested in helping socialism around the world. They are generally noninterventionist, but are directly combatting the system of imperialism and helping the global south escape the trap of underdevelopment. Further, they help countries that are heavily sanctioned, such as Cuba and the DPRK. The socialist market economy itself is helping decouple the world from the system set up by the west to plunder the world.

yeah it doesnt really seem like it thou. controversial take, china isnt really “saving from western imperialism” they couldnt care less and they just trade with countries like any normal nation would. they dont intervene in military action or really export capital, they arent imperialist, but they arent actively opposing imperialism. Plus i dont see anything of theirs coming to help communists in non AES so idk. They are passively showing that a different system is possible, but eventually the world will have to pass to scientific socialism. Plus China trades with capitalist consumerist countries, that means they are for the interests of what the west will buy. That means that if we buy phones, plastic containers, indumets, ecc. from China, China is producing those and it needs to take the prime materials from earth (or someone else who took them from the eath) and manufactured those. they sell these to the west in the amount the consumerist west needs. At the end they are providing the west with what it needs and thus contributing to the living (also) of capitalist western countries. I dont know if you get what im saying
