Correction: both are bad. The only good outcome is where neither the US nor China is a lone superpower, but instead they both compete economically, driving innovation and improvement for the rest of the world to enjoy.
Did people forget when the US went to shit, and how the US quality of life only really started declining when they won the Cold War and had no more competition? Competition is key to pushing the US to do better. It’s not going to do that without the threat of China (not that it’s doing that now, but the principle still stands).
Social Democrats are a sub-category of liberal. Either way, the idea that “competition” is inherently good for the people is extremely flawed thinking, a world without the US Empire would be far better.

Did we actually find peak liberalism?
Maybe? Idk if I should feel honoured, as that’s sort-of how I’d align myself.
I’d say I’m more of a social democrat personally.
