We don’t want anyone to colonize us just like you don’t want your country to be colonized. China offers business opportunities while the USA and Europe seem to always look down on everyone else and impose their own values on others. China does not give a shit about how we run our countries as long as they can trust that deals will be honored. We don’t want to be taught how great your democracy is or whatever, we want our countries to become better by our own efforts, with fair deals when dealing with other nations.

This 100%. We’re neither the back yard of the USA, nor the front yard as Biden said, probably thinking that was a good thing.
Get the F off our lawn and stop dumping your rubbish on it!

Big words... For a continent with zero nukes and negligible military power. That sort of delusional posturing worked wonders for Venezuela.
