      Your number of Chinese students that go to the U$ does not match the info I can find, most stuff I see says ~280k/year. There has been a pretty large drop over the past few years, and the number peaked before COVID. This drop in students has caused funding issues for U$ universities, as foreign students pay a lot more in tuition than domestic ones.

      Also don’t forget the US (the entire Imperial Core, really) make conditions in the Global South unsafe, forcing people to migrate the only place that’s safe: the Global North. Then they gatekeep and only let the wealthy or educated in.

      They exterminate the underclass while siphoning capital and brain power, making the situation worse in a feedback loop. Isreal has the same strategy to try and force Jews into moving there. Spread antisemitism abroad, then claim to be the only safe place for Jews.
