    lol you know china benefited from that? They were getting the ass kicked by the Japanese. The real fighters (ROC) in china ended up in Taiwan. mao and the ccp cowards hid in the hills and when the civil war happened the ROC was too battle fatigued to deal with it.

    And the ccp massacre was all civilian.

      If we’re talking about schadenfreude-based geopolitics:
      USA benefited from nazism with the “Operation paperclip”; Wernher Von Braun, a nazi, was imported by US military after nazism fell, importing the entire unethical/monstrous nazi experiments and benefiting from a luggage of unethical engineering to pave the way to “America first to land on the Moon”.

      Hey, China is far from saint, but I’m a Brazilian, and as a Brazilian, I can’t help but notice how they haven’t been the ones implying they’ll conduct full military intervention in my country to “fight terrorist groups”, and they haven’t been the ones using their financial power to interfere with the Brazilian politics through blackmailing Brazil (“Monroe doctrine”).
