Have you heard of this thing called the new Jim Crow?

Is that an American thing? If your point is “America is also bad!” - I don’t disagree, I’m not from there, so why bring it up? Why don’t we start listing all countries with bad things?

This isn’t some gotcha. This article is about china, so chinas issues are relevant.

A mean not to go too deep into whataboutism… but at least they only persecute their own Muslims rather than picking random countries on a map and persecuting them.

I would rather live in a country that points the guns outward, rather than inward

Ohhh so they aren't like selling weapon to Russia? Right. Keep going.

I see your point but, they're really not selling much more than golf carts and drones. If they go all-out with selling their actual military hardware (which they have a large stockpile and production capacity of), it would be get much more difficult for Ukraine to keep up the balance without increasing support from the west.

It's really quite interesting to see China being labelled as imperialist mean while the western powers have been colonizing and meddling in all kinds of affairs for generations... (see Operation Northwoods as one example)

Everybody makes mistakes.

The US is able to mention its past mistakes.

China still can't talk about students it murdered over 30 years ago.

Yet, recent American presidents have no problem admitting that Afghanistan and Iraq wars weren't the best of ideas.

> The US is able to mention its past mistakes.

The entire point of being able to mention past mistakes is for future generations to be able to learn from them and avoid making the same mistakes. It seems, in recent times, that while this liberty is "afforded" to US/Europe, they're not able to use it effectively, if at all. Meanwhile, even though the Chinese might not be able to talk about their mistakes publicly, it seems evident from their progress and events that they have not forgotten them, and that it is in their minds, at the very least.

Edit: Not to mention, looking at how your current president is going after Canada just because of an ad, don't keep your hopes up on US citizens being able to "mention" things either.

Okay and how many years is George Bush Jr and his entire administration serving currently?

What good is mentioning past mistakes if there's strictly zero consequences

Is that better or worse than aiding/supporting genocide?

Sounds like you’re comparing it to the United States or something? I’m not from there
