    Yes, true

    Thank God that in China you can’t simply be “disappeared”, you won’t be sent to reeducation camps, and you won’t be slaughtered.

    Right?

      Good thing you ate the capitalists’ propaganda onion and are now doing their work for free, contributing to your continued exploitation.

      Meanwhile people actually are being disappeared in the US right now, and people actually are subjected to forced labor.

        And you don’t think this happens in China?

          I have no reason to believe people are being disappeared, no, but I do have reason to believe that the US and its junior partners will continue claiming that they are. It’s big business.

        It’s so weird to me that there are people, like you, who completely ignore established facts just because these facts reflect negatively on some group that you like.

        It’s like you’re completely incapable of understanding that nothing is 100% perfect, and that good people can sometimes do bad things and that (applies here) bad people sometimes do good.

        The Chinese government has implemented a shit tonne of repressive rules, it’s committing genocide, but to you that must be a lie because they did something that you like.

        It must be nice being 15 years old

        How much have you travelled, lived and worked in China? How far outside the tier 1 cities have you gotten?

        If you think every criticism of China is just liberal talking points, I assume the answers to those questions are all “not very much”.
