    I think the US is worse. Even if you think China is a subtle imperial power (how is that supposed to work, exactly?) then you have to acknowledge they’re the lesser of two evils. Unless you think you’re going to dream up an idealist third option to replace them both?

      The US is worse?

      Tiananmen Square. Ring a bell? Would you like to discuss it?

        21 people were arrested for organizing the Tiananman Square protests.

        14,000+ were arrested for involvement in the George Floyd Uprisings.

        🤔

          Cool. So, remember that you have the freedom to involve yourself in a discussion about it the next time you try and say shit would be better being under China’s thumb.
