It's funny to hear something like that from Russia/China supporter.

What do you think turns people into China supporters? Love for China or hatred of the US?

You don't have to love China to hate the US.

Wanting a sports team to support in the league of harmful countries

China has not military intervened in a country since 1979, and have had strict non interventionist policy since. Whatever you think of Chinese initiatives like Belt and Road or Chinese economic foreign policy, it is no where near comparable to US/NATO military interventions and secret military death squads acting with impunity. Which is what the commenter above was alluding to.

China hasn't been at war since the 70s while US has been at at war for 92% of its deplorable existence. Anybody who supports US over China is utterly morally bankrupt.
