I think one thing we learned from USSR approach is that world communism cannot be established as long as capitalism is the dominant power. Chinese approach seems to be to undermine the hegemon, and then let the countries develop in their own way. It's not as ambitious, but it's it's less polarizing and it's a case of leading by example. The stronger China gets the more discredited the whole capitalist system becomes as a result.

What do you mean not ambitious? What China is doing is literally the most ambitious thing man kind has ever seen. China wants to give all countries the right to decide for themselves. China has stated multiple times that they will never interfere with a sovereign nation's right to decide what is right form their own nation. That means whatever a nation's internal will is, that's what decisions that country will get to make. This has never happened in history. For as long as we have records, we have always had strong nations impose their will on weak nations. If China gets it's way, that will go away. The only obstacle for China of course is that last super power that has been imposing it's will for almost 50 years now...

Yeah that's fair, it's a differently ambitious goal.
