I think it's fair to acknowledge there is a non-trivial amount of users from China on HN, with their own agenda. Just as I am American, and pro-America, I am sure they are pro-China. With that said, China has a history of bad behavior, especially with regards to cyber-warfare against US companies.

That's been my assumption too. There also seems to be more acceptance of that even in the business world. I get contacted by Chinese tech companies offering partnership deals because I've made YouTube videos about electronics and they tend to have interesting contractual agreements surrounding social media. For instance, no other tech company has ever asked me to censor negative user comments if I review their product but multiple Chinese companies have requested exactly that. One of them worded it as "silencing the slanderous tiny trumpets".
