Ugh, please!

If this (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-55794071) is not a definition of evil, I don't know what is. Heinous crimes that go all the way to the CCP top.

Apologies, dang. That was certainly not my intention.

Sure, the treating of Uighur people is very questionable. We don't have a lot of water tight evidence though, so while it doesn't look great it's also not clear cut.

What I find amusing though is how everyone focuses on that one story because that is the best they can find to criticise the CCP for whilst at the same time the US commits 10000x worse crimes as I have listed above.

Honestly, if China was as aggressive as the USA then they could easily pick a million human rights violations to ramp up anti USA propaganga in China and justify an invasion, but guess what, China is not as aggressive and war focused as the USA.

Last time I checked it's the USA which deploys missles, war ships, tanks and troops all over the world in allied countries, not China. China's military is just sitting in China. Not sure who people (who are not American) should be more afraid of... think about...
