Western governments literally have a history of slavery.

Right now, America is running actual concentration camps for African Americans.

Don’t think western governments are any better.

Slavery was first abolished by the west. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_slavery#Abolitionis...

Global abolition of slavery was led by the league of nations in 1926

You are welcome to move to China if you think they are better.

After all I moved to the West because I thought it was better.

Seriously not a bad idea. China doesn’t have millions of corona virus infections. And restaurant and bars are open.
