I think you would find very few people who think belt and road wouldn't be vastly superior to what the us is doing now

American "belt & road" has been tried, but in a neoliberal way, through WB and IMF, and it has been an utter failure (see Joe Stiglitz or Ha-Joon Chang for examples). Chinese are way more pragmatic (smarter) about it.
I don't remember any violent backlash to the Marshal plan.
