Some simple logic:
1. US media is capable of being biased on certain subjects (FOX news, Trump), for more clicks, or for political reasons
2. China is a long term threat to US economy and political systems, and is generally hated by the people right now
3. Thus it's possible that what you read everyday is biased
4. Then you hate China more, then media notices that and be more biased. It's a loop leading to justified extreme actions.
Just keep this possibility in mind
As a Chinese living in the US, reading China related news/comments is like watching FOX, or Trump watching CNN. Maybe I am also biased, but that's my feeling.

You know, Xinjiang is regarded as the most beautiful place in (China)" - quote from the China Ambassador to UK when asked why Uyghur Muslims were hooded and loaded onto trains. An average American has no reason to hate on China, but it doesn't mean we can't stand up for the ethnic groups that are being oppressed within China's borders. The congressional testimonies by the Uyghurs refugees is truly terrifying. Doing business with China literally means you are in support of their government's actions. T-shirts, medical masks, a regular bottle of ketchup, its all made from slave labor in Xinjiang.
