Pretty easy to be negative on China when all the news come out of there are: dictatorship, imprisonment millions in concentration camps and brainwashes them, builds artificial islands and claim ownership of seas not even close to their land, blatantly disregards WTO rules and closes off its market to others, hacks and steals other countries and their companies IP, threatens to attack a democratic Taiwan every day, censorship of their citizens, threatening censorship of other countries about China or its concentration camps, depletes fishing supplies in other countries, floods the ocean with plastics, props up dictatorships in other countries, etc etc etc.

Nuke China.

You literally said you're Chinese, in one of the comment a month ago.

Nuke us, dominate us with your big white cock.

I can't fathom how you could post this or the other comments you dropped in this thread. They're obviously bannable offenses, but since you've mostly posted fine comments to HN otherwise, I'm going to assume you went on tilt for some reason and not ban you. Please don't do it again though.

With a looming trade war feature the US and China as primary actors, it's pretty understandable.

I also don't think this article really has too much of a negative bias, aside from the title itself.

I don't feel this article is particularly negative about China except title, but the negative tone in comments are surprising considering HN being tech and business focused.

I don't think it's negative bias; it's just reality –– massive pollution issues, expansionism, imperialism, racism, shining lasers in pilots' eyes, issuing balloon loans to weak African countries.

All bad stuff, and presided over by a man who is now dictator for life.

Do you expect us to speak kindly of their social credit system?

how is this a negative article? If I had to decide it's positive. No more imported trash means a certain level of development

How is this a negative China article? No one is implying they are wrong for doing so.
