We aren’t seeing videos of chinese goofing around in lingerie of Palestinian women they have killed or worse.

We aren’t seeing videos of chinese blowing up houses and mosques and rigging them with colored smoke to turn them into gender reveal demolitions.

Not that China is anything like innocent, but that's why.

I think it's part of the grift, but it's still good that they're unhappy with the state of the world.
