in order of effectiveness:
1) don't buy Chinese goods.
2) share news like this and other examples about how China treats dissidents on channels like LinkedIn which are frequented by Chinese and those doing business with China pretending it's all good.
3) protest outside a Chinese embassy (don't forget your umbrella)
4) if you're in the loop and aware of such things then call out those Western politicians pandering to Chinese bureaucrats (I'm aware of infrastructure projects in SE Europe and Africa where plenty of dark money flows ... hello Croatia Tourism board, BiH, Serbia, Montenegro ...)
- eatbitseveryday 7y ago> 3) protest outside a Chinese embassy (don't forget your umbrella) Here's my concern already. I have in-laws that live in China. I have a Chinese visa, and need to travel to China for work sometimes. Won't doing this jeopardize me in some way? I'd be happy to participate if only I knew I'd never return to the country or had no ties there.

- codezero 7y agoChina has pioneered biometric measurements of people on things other than face, like gait, so also, maybe wear a single platform shoe :)
- beebmam 7y ago>I have in-laws that live in Nazi Germany. I have a German visa, and need to travel to Nazi Germany for work sometimes. Does that put it in better context? I don't believe the comparison to Nazi Germany is that unjustified. You already know what the right thing to do is, you're just not considering it an option.
