As much as I dislike the Chinese Autocratig Regime, if they’re right, then they’re right.

    “China is also supporting genocide abroad, they are helping prop up Putin’s war in Ukraine.”

    I understand that, my point on that was China is doing the same thing. And again not dismissing the things we are doing.

      Russia/Ukraine is a state vs state territorial conflict involving genocide with most of the Western world in support of Ukraine.

      Israel/Gaza is an occupation with six times the civilian death toll, involving widespread systemic destruction of infrastructure, forced displacement, inaccessibility to healthcare and starvation.

      While both are genocides, the imbalance is particularly horrific in the latter. The Russians seem to have a preference for abducting children and placing them in “Russification” camps to erase their heritage while Israel simple kills Gazan children in cold blood.

      This is not an apples to apples comparison and I think many would consider the US looks worse, in this particular comparison, than China.
