I know what you're saying, but it's still a shitty poll. I think people in the past were way looser with the word enemy. Everyone was an enemy, the Russians, communism, drugs, immigrants poverty... everything was a fucking enemy that needed a war.

So, even though just as many people might distrust China the language has changed and we wouldn't call them "enemy".

The Chinese government is authoritarian, evil and awful but I still wouldn't call China an "enemy". Because life isn't black and white, and once you call somone an enemy you've shut off your brain and nothing good will come out of it.
