Should calling Chinese people who are Pro-China brainwashed be considered racism?

I think they try to disguise it too, often, when they talk in depth in brainwashing, they talk like they feel sorry for the "brainwashed" person, and how it is all the CCP's fault that they don't have critical thinking skills and all of that. I just would like to say, as a person who's parents came from China, that I believe, that if the majority of the people in a country benefit from a ruling party, which is a fact in China, then that party does not deserve to be overthrown, it could definitely be improved through reforms, but not abolished. That is the sort of argument I present when I try to believe some of the allegations thrown at China from the west

Unlike China, Britain’s industrial revolution and overseas expansion was driven by a military policy. According to Hobson, during the period from 1688-1815 Great Britain was engaged in wars 52% of the time[3]. Whereas the Chinese relied on their open markets and their superior production and sophisticated commercial and banking skills, the British relied on tariff protection, military conquest, the systematic destruction of competitive overseas enterprises as well as the appropriation and plunder of local resources. China’s global predominance was based on ‘reciprocal benefits’ with its trading partners, while Britain relied on mercenary armies of occupation, savage repression and a ‘divide and conquer’ policy to foment local rivalries. In the face of native resistance, the British (as well as other Western imperial powers) did not hesitate to exterminate entire communities[4]. Unable to take over the Chinese market through greater economic competitiveness, Britain relied on brute military power. It mobilized, armed and led mercenaries, drawn from its colonies in India and elsewhere to force its exports on China and impose unequal treaties to lower tariffs. As a result China was flooded with British opium produced on its plantations in India – despite Chinese laws forbidding or regulating the importation and sale of the narcotic. China’s rulers, long accustomed to its trade and manufacturing superiority, were unprepared for the ‘new imperial rules’ for global power. The West’s willingness to use military power to win colonies, pillage resources and recruit huge mercenary armies commanded by European officers spelt the end for China as a world power. China had based its economic predominance on ‘non-interference in the internal affairs of its trading partners’. In contrast, British imperialists intervened violently in Asia, reorganizing local economies to suit the needs of the empire (eliminating economic competitors including more efficient Indian cotton manufacturers) and seized control of local political, economic and administrative apparatus to establish the colonial state.

I'm not that worried about China the country facing Sinophobia because these losers can't do anything to China, in fact, Sinophobia can be much worse to the West, when there are huge anti-China protests in the West, this is generally what happens on both sides:
1.Opinion about their government
West: Fuck our government for being so weak in front of evil China, we will protest till our government sanction China, it's literally our government that made China so rich through free trade to begin with
China: Fuck those racist whites who always discriminate Chinese people, the West is much more evil than China, we will support our government even more to piss these losers off
2.State of local economy
West: Protesters go on strike, congesting and vandalizing public spaces which take long time to recover and repair, tourists concerned about the protests stop visiting the place and hit tourism hard
China: Manufacturers busy making made in China banners, flags, masks etc which are generally used in protests, more people getting employed and domestic tourism rises because Chinese tourists avoid places with protests
3.Government spending tax revenue
West: Government spending more tax money funding organizations like NED and FBI to trigger more anti-China protests but all fail to do anything in Mainland China, more money needed for security in protests
China: Government spending tax money on infrastructure, R&D, healthcare etc as usual but propaganda about nationalism and patriotism needs less funding now because anti-China protests are doing the job
4.People's opinion about protests
West: Not attending school or work because of protests feels great, vandalizing stuff is so much fun, we will seek to protest for pettier things in the future, cursing at or beating up people in protests is okay because it's freedom
China: Protests look scary and devastating, economy and stability first before anything, protests may achieve 80% of what they demand but the destruction is 100%, protests should be the last option
5.National identity among citizens
West: Chinese and other Asians, people who agree some of CCP's policies are instantly labelled as spies and shills, get attacked or receive death threat from anti-China groups, people become more divided and feel less patriotic
China: Chinese becoming more woke about their national identity, realizing that Chinese should never seek 'acceptance' from the West which they can never get, Chinese nation gets more united than ever
Now of course I said 'generally', so it's not the whole picture, there are always Chans and Lus.
