They likely want to position themselves to lead mediation that they hope will come and are wary of being seen as adversary by the negotiating parties. They are also strengthening trade deals and empowering the abilities of the enemies of Israel as well. Not to mention things we probably aren't aware of like giving Iran access to their satellite capabilities.

I'm not saying anything about this is "good" it is just expected behavior and any major changes would be surprising. China ultimately isn't going to sacrifice their nation's interests for a situation they are not directly involved in or responsible for.

Any non Chinese citizens who thinks China should be doing more are probably not doing enough to change their own nation's support for Israel and imperialism in general, and it seems chauvinistic to think China should be taking any risk to solve a crisis that is solely the responsibility of the NATO members and their citizens.

It emotionally resonates, China being some savior hat solves the worst problems of the world would be ideal, and they are doing a lot towards those aims in regards to climate change, and other ways. They can't do it all though and it isn't reasonable to expect them to.

I mean since Deng as in, coupling with neoliberal economies and becoming reliant on them, not a specific tactic announcement made during his time

If China was unilaterally run by one person it would be easy to make such decisions but when you consider the sheer amount of people that need to be convinced to make policy changes of this caliber, not to mention the time it takes to implement, it just isn't realistic to expect China to go so drastically off course of the plans and strategies they have been implementing since Deng. The type of cards we want to see China play have been intentionally removed from their deck for years in order to focus on their long term strategy of win-win, they would only have them available if directly attacked, otherwise they are going to continue on the path they have been on for decades.

anti-china leftists and zios starting to use the same arguments but from opposite sides

If this isn't Tudeh I don't think they have any base of support in Iran. Even Tudeh doesn't really anymore. I remember the latter supporting the women life freedom BS when that happened and communists on reddit using that to support it too, despite being an obvious op

They always say the thing they are attempting to do but say they shouldn't do it

Look I sent the link to Khamenei but he told me to touch grass

That seems like a long trip

Yes, it certainly makes sense why all our favorite nations tend to wait as long as possible before escalating, in most cases. It is also heavily disappointing, and easy to wonder if they could have acted earlier in a way that would have had a better outcome than what has happened, but I guess very few people in power think that risk is worth it. If they act too early and end up being less prepared than they needed to be to maintain advantage, they will still be brutally violated by their enemies, but are also more likely to fail and be overthrown by some compradors. Both outcomes risk death of your people and humiliation, but one has you better prepared to fight back because you had more time to do so.

Now the blue MAGAs have to be even more against it because Carlson is in favor.
