I respect the Chinese people, their modern advancements in science and technology, their industry, their customs, and their rich history and culture.
I do not respect a hostile dictatorship that rules over them all, and if they were smart they would not, either.
They own and rule the dictatorship. It's a dictatorship of the proletariat, wherein anyone can become a party member and participate. The US has a dictatorship of capital. How's that working out again having a dozen billionaires writing your laws and controlling the entire executive branch?
No it's a dictatorship by a small group that the rest of them are not in. It's a dictatorship that demands the common people surrender all beliefs not sanctioned by the state, that demolishes holy sites, a dictatorship that forces minorities into labor camps. It's a dictatorship that commits hostile takeovers of neighboring nations and allies itself with multiple other dictatorships.
dafuq did I just read
Have you never learned literally anything about Tibet? Check out the wikipedia sections for pre 1950s Tibet, or simply Google Tibet given the news stories about the dalai lama tonguing a kid on tv.
China actually vetoed a UN Ceasefire resolution in Gaza in March, so much for peace.
Not to mention Chinese close friends and allies North Korea is constantly firing missiles into the ocean as a method of stick-waving at demilitarized Japan.
Honestly weird that you think Uighur Muslims all need to go to rehab and work long unpaid hours until they die. Not how a normal human with empathy thinks, generally.
The ceasefire resolution that didn't free hostages held in Israel, enabled the IDF to indefinitely hold Gaza, and removed all self determination from gazans?
Yes, even the Arab nations did not want that resolution, China, during the same sessions, called for an unconditional ceasefire.
Lying about situations makes everything you have to say suspect.
To your second point, you admit the US is committing genocide in Gaza. Right? We're blaming countries for things their military allies do now, so the US is genocidal, according to you.
To your third point less than 5% of the uighur population has ever been arrested, xinjiangs city council is mostly uighur Muslims, and no american gets to tell anthother country how to handle prisoners, given us prisons are worse than pretty much anywhere according to the UN, and the us arrests more minorities as a percentage of each minority population than China is claimed to have, much less the reality.
I'm sure those gazans are really enjoying all the extra freedoms they've had in the last 9 months. /sarcasm
Given the resolution would have had the same result, hence why everyone but the US opposed it, sure.
This dude just straight up snorts the Kool-Aid powder.
Because I don't but us propaganda? Are you okay little buddy?
