China has lifted almost a billion people out of the extreme poverty left by colonial exploitation and drug wars.
Lead the way on actual green transition globally and is basically the only large nation meaningfully trying to avert the catastrophe that will render a huge swath of the planet uninhabitable in a few generations displacing billions of people.
Stood up to US and EU exploitative colonial hegemony in favour of international law repeatedly. China continually advocates for actually following the RBO in the face of rapacious USA warmaking.
China has not engaged in an offensive war since the revoltion.
Distributed vaccinations cheaply to nations the west would not sell to during the last pandemic which killed fucking millions of people.
Has set up alternative funding programs for countries to develop that are far less exploitative than IMF loans.
Is all of this self interested to some degree? If course it is. Is it self interested to the detriment of the world? I think you would struggle to make that case when held up next to other superpowers.
What the fuck is your threshold for a good nation? Has anyone in the 21st century met it?
