    The US literally burned down 20 black enclaves because they were mad that some black people were becoming middle class.

      And China is currently removing a religion from existence via genocide.

      The United States did similar when it genocided native americans.

      No need to play who is the worst, we’re all demons.

        There’s no proof or that. They’re discriminating against them certainly but genocide is a specific thing. It’s not just when you imprison a lot of people.

        By that definition the US is committing a genocide against black people.

          Really? How many black people are in forced labor camps in the US? Or being sterilized against their will? Having their children taken en masse to indoctrinate?

          Racism and mistreatment isn’t the same as genocide.

          Cool, and there shouldn’t be. There is evidence, it’s likely not available in China due to the massive government censorship of … everything in Chinese society.

          I’m sure when China receives a request for international observers to visit a location, the government of China will make arrangements to show their commitment to…

          Oh wait, they did request, China said fuck off, and imprisoned Chinese citizens asking questions and amuggling footage to the international community.

          Oh yeah, you’re right. I totally wanna live in China. I love when thoughts become illegal and heads of companies disappear for months at a time, then reappear and if you ask why or where they were, your turn!
