I don't think it's fair to suggest China is "raping" the West. Hong Kong, maybe, but not the entire democratic world. At least, not yet.

Equating the democratic free world to the direct victims in Xinjing, Tibet, Hong Kong, and those in the rest of China, is going too far I think.

Insisting that the world use specific doublespeak about a sensitive issue is not rape - nor is it really all that humiliating.

It is a humiliation

This is exactly the line of reasoning which lead the free world into this predicament.

The predicament where an organisation can't offend 1.4 billion people and push an unstable region further into instability.

There are definitely battles that need to be had with the CCP, but this argument of semantics isn't one of them.

It exactly is. You will never defeat an enemy if you can't defeat it in your own head.

It's your Resolve. The Resolve is needed to strike an enemy.

A nation ridden with "deeply concerneds," and "strongly condemners" cannot come to consensus, and understand that an action is needed.

Facts make a better argument than histrionics.
