    You can even agree that china bad, but then as soon as you ask them to solve a problem in your country that they claim is happening in china, they get upset and invoke whataaboutism.

    Like gee, if you believe China is enslaving Muslims then maybe we should show them who’s superior by abolishing the 13th amendment and closing down Guantanamo Bay. It’s extremely easier and faster to do than confronting a nuclear superpower. No? What’s that? I’m a “tankie?” Because I want my country to be held to the same standards that you hold others? Ok.

      Yeah. If youre a westerner and you think we should seriously consider invading china due to allegations of genocide - despite these allegations resting on the flimsiest of bases - then you must surely already be organizing a partisan resistance in the United States right? Because we can both agree that there’s actual proof of minorities being concentrated in camps where they work until they die in the US, so since we’ve got proof and since china should be invaded even when there was none, then the us surely should be taken out
