      I’m not saying the US is good in that regard, but don’t forget about the ethnic cleansing happening in Tibet and Xinjiang as well as the region bound system thing that effectively by law keeps poor people poor. China is way worse than the US.

        Are you living under a rock? What do you think the US is doing right now to its own people?

        The thing is, alleged “secret ethnic cleansing” that still has no direct evidence after a decade is not as bad as the visible abuse that the US publicly lumps on minorities. I’d rather live in Xinjiang than be a black American any day, and the statistics back me up.

        China is way worse than the US.

        Only if you’re a white supremacist.

          Fair critique of the US, but replace white with Han and you can say the same of China.

              Why would that be making excuses for the USA? It’s not that one must be ok and one must be bad, both can be absolutely doing things wrong.
