    Hell, even if they did know it wouldn’t matter. Even western leftists who know about the Iraq WMD line fall into the same trap. There is this idea of the PRC, that if anything else they are authoritarian, they are murderous (communism killed blah blah), they are loud and rude (tourists), they are sloppy and cut corners (made in China LOL) that’s already floating around. The thought is that even if the CIA was funding terrorists, it wouldn’t be farfetched for the PRC to also commit genocide or have concentration camps or whatever.
