    And last time I checked we aren’t holding any minorities in concentration camps

    You must have never checked then, the US has never not had minorities in concentration camps.

    Currently, I believe we called them “ICE detention facilities” and “prisons”

        Yes, because letting people who cannot survive on their own, into your country is real smart.

        You know the EU is dealing with this same shit from immigrants from the middle east right?

          The U.S. and EU shouldn’t be allowed to speak on immigration after all the wars and coups they did in the countries they’re racist about getting immigrants from.

      Almost like both sides are wrong and supporting the us government or the Chinese government is both bad.

      Just kinda seems like China is a little more blatantly evil…

          Sure. That’s a single specific instance of a good thing. You can do the same for the US.

          Reminds me of the phrase, “good people do bad things and bad people do good things.”

          I sincerely don’t understand how anyone can be so supportive towards ANY government.

          Support the people, not the tyrants.

            I confused you for the other person who was accusing China of starving millions of people.

            Is it really that hard to believe that not every government is tyrannical, and that some actually care about their citizens though?

              Sure. Not the Chinese government tho.

              Support the people not the government, is my opinion.

              Why are you so pro ccp?

                Until we reach some kind of stateless Communist society, what exactly do you want? The U.S. to overthrow the government and install sympathizers to its own interests?

                  Never said that. Those aren’t my words.

                  And no. That’s exactly the opposite of what I want. What I want is for the US and the CCP to stop doing shitty things. And for the best interest of the people to be the specific reason for decisions. This opinion of mine applies to all governments. Including the shit stains that run the US.

                  You also didn’t answer my question. Why support the ccp specifically and not the people?

                    And for the best interest of the people to be the specific reason for decisions.

                    You just answered your question for me. I believe the democratic centralism in the CPC enables it to make its decisions based on the best interests of the people.

                    Also, why would I support the CPC and not support the people? That doesn’t make any sense. Surely someone supporting the CPC wouldn’t do so because they don’t support the people…
