What's funny is I can't tell if you're talking about younger Americans refusing to hate China or older Americans chanting "China Bad!"
Both tbh
American failures are being used to prop up Chinese successes. This is particularly true in urbanism discussions. China is by no means perfect and thinking that they are is harmful to progress.
Perfection doesn't exist, but China is on the right track imo
Anyone still trying to pedal the "secret Uyghur genocide" nonsense at this point, long after the Western media has given up on it, and with Isreal showing us what an actual genocide of a captive Muslim population looks like, is either knowingly lying or terminally brainwashed.
...are you under the impression that this is the first genocide in the history of the human race?
What a complete non-sequitur question.
While the Americans are committing a far worse genocide in Palestine, the Uyghurs are definitely being genocided in China.
In the same way that Saddam "definitely had WMDs" in 2003.
Like I said, anyone still peddling this "secret genocide" conspiracy is knowingly lying or hopelessly indoctrinated.
Funny you should mention that.
In the future, I recommend you not wade into discussions you don't know even the bare minimum about.
