Just because they can lie and fudge statistics doesn’t mean they are poor or weak. If it’s so great why aren’t you there though?

That's such a weird argument. Do people only leave their home country if their home country is bad? Do people who live abroad have no right to defend their home country from slander? The answer is generally "no" to both, but when it comes to China people can't comprehend anything other than "yes". Just think about how weird that is. I increasingly believe that such hypocrisy simply indicates bad faith.

      Hysteria as you call it is just words and punitive policies. When the CCP starts arming Russia or invades Taiwan as it has signaled it will do with increasing volume over the last five years—reunification is a must—those are violent acts that will lay at the feet of China, not the hysteria of the West. They've already taken a side with a country determined to wipe the identity of tens of millions of people from the earth and do so with tanks, shells and hundreds of thousands of armed men. What is there to defend there? How many tens of thousands of people must be murdered for their soil for China to disavow it's unlimited friendship?

        You should atleast check who you're replying to before you throw your toys out of the cot.

        Ah you're right, I apologize on that point.

        And in any case you completely side-stepped addressing my point that any violence that results from Western hysteria (as you put it) lies squarely at the feet of China. China alone will be responsible for the deaths that result from a forcible invasion of Taiwan. China will share bloodied hands with Russia if they sell arms to Russia to advance its crusade of terror.

        So you are endorsing current violence against Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Vietnamese citizen in the United States, before China has actually performed any invasions?!?

        Actually I was being too charitable in my other reply. "Olaf Scholz suggested that Germany received bilateral assurances from China that it won't supply Russia with weapons for its war against Ukraine. EU Commission President von der Leyen said she had seen "no evidence" of Chinese considerations to send arms." https://www.politico.eu/article/china-ukraine-war-russia-weapon-deliveries-scholz-putin-zelenskyy-xi-jinping/ https://www.politico.eu/article/china-ukraine-war-russia-wea... So you're essentially saying that it's okay to attack Asians in the west even though China has not actually supplied weapons to Russia!?!?!
