Funny that when the wrong country does it it's tyranny. When a Western country does it it's the rule of law. Especially when they are the exact same thing.

    Do you have any concrete examples where this would apply? (person getting arrested in China over an offered service) If not, this is just whataboutism. I can't think of any, to be honest.

        I reread what you wrote and I think it's fair to say that you're deferring to a 'whataboutism'. If you can provide actual examples of what you're talking about, then an intellectual argument/discussion could be formed.

    There's nothing funny or wrong about this argument. In a democracy, law is a community consensus. In a tyranny it's just a rule set up by the tyrant for everyone to follow (but never followed by the tyrant himself and his gunmen). That said, even in democracy a law can be bad, and likely is in this case.

      In a democracy two wolves and a sheep discuss what is for dinner.

  I wonder what his gameplan was trying to become a French citizen in the first place.
