Are you implying that the current Chinese government should be forgiven for abusing its citizens because the British did something similar 35 years ago?

I don’t mean to offend, but your comment is so short that I can tell what kind of context you are trying to add.

I am implying that the current Chinese government simply kept the colonial style police force, probably unchanged for another 50 years.

Ah, got it. I had thought they were relying on moral relativism to downplay the actions of the Chinese government.

Narh, the Chinese government's actions are unforgivable. As are the actions of others who did the same thing.
