    china’s biggest crime is making close to as much money as we do.

    Nah man, I’m pretty sure the Tiananmen square massacre was a bigger crime. Not to mention their genocide of the Uighur people, their oppression of Hong Kong, their attempts to steal Taiwan’s sovereignty.

    ETA: big thanks to OP for so clearly and concisely showing they’re a tankie.

      their oppression of Hong Kong

      Hong Kong was the product of the UK’s century of Chinese oppression, and their 99 year lease on oppressing Hong Kong ended in 1997.


      steal Taiwan’s sovereignty

      Taiwan is only considered sovereign by eleven countries, most of which are micronations like the Holy See, the Marshall Islands, and Tuvalu: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_status_of_Taiwan


      was a bigger crime
