I don't see how that's relevant?

Also, I'm sure it's not you're intent, but questioning me about why I don't dislike China for reasons other than the things being discussed is pretty Mccarthy-esque... Am I not loyal unless I support this arrest?

You're accusing people of irrational fear of china and the poster is challenging you with evidence that the fear is rational. If you assumed good faith your "loyalty" is not relevant.
