    Uyghur Genocide

    Violating the sovereignty of Taiwan

    Unprovoked attacks on boats in nearby international waters

    Lying about being communist.

    Which of these are made up?

      It’s a while ago but you missed one of their earlier genocides, that is still ongoing, in Tibet.

      Now also sabotaging European infrastructure. And previously, ehm - COVID (though no one knows how much blame they deserve for that).

        I’m frankly willing to give China a pass when it comes to COVID, unless one of the crazy conspiracy theories turn out to be true. I don’t really think it’s good to hold China to fault on a disease that happened to emerge from within their boarders, regardless of the circumstances that made it more likely to happen there in specific.

          My joke conspiracy theory is that it actually originated in the US, just like Spanish Flu, and we managed to infect people in Wuhan before it spread much in some almost unpopulated state like Wyoming, and then we let China take the blame.

          I’m joking, I hope.

      Uyghur Genocide

      Point to the community in Xinjiang that looks like Gaza City

      Violating the sovereignty of Taiwan

      Imagine China encircling Puerto Rico with its navy, then complaining about the US violating its sovereignty.

      Taiwan has been contested territory for centuries. The US attempting to colonize it doesn’t reflect poorly on China.

      Lying about being communist.

      Americans can’t decide if China is bad because Communist or bad because Not Communist Enough.
