What China can do is help developing nations build out infrastructure and transfer technology to these nations to help them bootstrap their domestic industries. And this is precisely what China has been doing with great success.
It's always up to the people of the country to improve their own situation, and communism cannot be imposed on them externally. However, countries can help improve material conditions and alleviate the suffering. This is what China does.
Exactly, ultimately what China does is improve the material conditions of plundered global south countries so they're more likely to take the revolutionary road. China learned from the URSS post-Stalin awful foreign policy.
Please refrain from arguing in bad faith. If you disagree with someone, ask questions and clarify your position. You're in a dedicated community so don't assume that people are just going around saying stupid things out of their asses.
Who's actually assuming China is bringing socialism by building infrastructure? It's about building productive forces, who else is doing that? Feels pretty insulting to call is a "China simp community"
The "mindset" of the people of these countries is a result of their current stage of development, to get out of that "mindset" they need to develop their productive forces, sure they can do it by "pulling yourself up by your bootstraps" but its going to take much longer than with the help of China.
Okay it's obvious you have not read theory. Through the lens of historical materialism, aka the material conception of history developed with dialectics, we reached the conclusion that production is the chief determinant force of development, quantitative changes in production lead to qualitative changes in society.
The "mindset" from these underdeveloped countries is precisely a product of their underdevelopment, not the other way around like you imply. That is the reason we support China policies on developing global south infrastructure, because developing the productive forces (the instruments and people who carry on production) IS the way to develop society. It is not because we are blindly "chinese simps".
Obligatory book recomendation, "Historical and dialectical materialism" by Stalin.
