    - they literally have a giant firewall to block their people's access to information. Journalists get detained and jailed for speaking out against the government all the time.
    -never seen the talking point of "they don't know they are oppressed". They absolutely know they are oppressed, but they know they can't really do anything about it.
    -surveillance they do is pretty f----- but the US has no room to talk. We are just more subtle about the way we spy on our citizens.
    -some of their diet is........unconventional. But again, americans have no room to talk
    -you really think those "98% approval rating' are a genuine reflection of how the people feel? Cmon man they know you'd have to be an idiot to speak out against the CCP.
    -5G tower conspiracies are the epitome of stupidity
    -They absolutely lied about their covid numbers. They forced doctors who warned people early on to recant their statements

    As far as the "800 million people lifted out of poverty since WW2" fact, people tend to omit they killed millions of their own people in the process. Mao was brutal

    Just because the US does f----- up s--- all the time, that doesn't give China a pass to do so

    America has every country beat by a mile as far as surveillance goes, 5g towers are a weirdo conspiracy, I understand most of the other points although I'm not knowledgeable about them or what they're being portrayed as tbh, and I know well about the emissions but what about their Diets and COVID? Maybe we should make a new thread where you debunk this if possible

    - Uighur genocide/concentrations camps whatever they want to call it, as stated by @Sign Language
    - General censorship
    - “The people don’t know they’re oppressed” — let’s understand how racist this actually is. To assume over 1 billion people are unaware of their situation solely because of their origin. They must need the white mans help!
    - Surveillance — yet less CCTV per capita than USA.
    - Their diets
    - “I don’t hate the Chinese people, only their government” — yet 98% approval rate from its citizens. (risen from 93% in 2013)
    - 5G towers — lol
    - COVID
    - “Greenhouse gas emissions highest in the world” — yet per capita (the correct measurement) they are 15th highest of wealthy nations, per co2 metric tons, they emit 6.4, whereas joint highest USA & Saudi Arabia, emit 17.6, according to the World Bank & has also pledged to be completely carbon neutral by 2060. Also, guess where the West outsources it’s productivity that creates these emissions?

    They’re the main talking points but there’s a general anti-China sentiment almost daily in the mainstream networks at the moment, they’ll twist whatever new story they can to fit the negative narrative being perpetuated. I saw them report the fact that China has lifted 800 million people out of extreme poverty since WW2 & they still managed to spin that to whataboutery as far as US interests are concerned — the West is so self-obsessed it’s absurd. You know it’s working when even the left are against China.
