Although many of my country's actions make me sick, it definitely gets outdone.

Yeah it would suck worse to live in China under their govt than in the US under ours. However, if you lived in neither country, the US govt is a far greater threat to you than the Chinese govt, in general. And there are plenty of bodies buried across the globe in the name of US 'interests' as evidence.

Give China time.

If you want to get mathematical, China's slope is at least trending towards less authoritarianism and unilateralism while the US slope is trending towards more authoritarianism and unilateralism. And China's economy is growing and becoming more influential, meaning it will need to rely less on force, while the US is relying more on force as it's eceonomic swagger is on the decline relative to other powers. So given more time, I believe my statement you quoted will be even more true, not less.
