Yes, absolutely. I’m an American who lived in Chile. In that time I received animosity from exactly 2 people.
The current rhetoric against China is much more prevalent, perhaps 40% of people.
I think it has to do with the fact that the USA issues were 2 generations ago while the China issues are happening now.
Also, most people understand that the decisions made by ones’ government are not controlled by the people. People don’t have any control over what their politicians do. This is a globally understood truth.

I think that both of these problems are direct consequences of the military coup. China's ability to have such a big influence the Chilean market is a direct consequence of the savage capitalist system installed by the Chicago boys. After all, it's a free market, isn't it?
Regarding "People don’t have any control over what their politicians do"... well, that's a capitalist representative democracy for you! It is like that precisely by design, not by accident.
