It would be so funny if China started an aid program to help disadvantaged people in the USA. It would be such a big dick move to be like "oh shit y'all live like this?" and start reversing decades of anti-chinese propaganda by buying eggs and fuel for US citizens fucked by tariffs.

I must lathe this into existence because it will make me giggle

The authoritarian and vindictive US Regime is blocking Chinese humanitarian aid to starving and impoverished citizens within its borders. Showing that the Trump Regime, and its underdeveloped economy, have complete disregard for their people.

Even if it was small numbers it would be based. I suspect that the US would try to block it, though.

bonus points if you can come up with an acronym for CICADA. Just to freak out western libs of course, I don't actually think Chinese people are equivalent to bugs it would just be really funny.
