    No it’s a dictatorship by a small group that the rest of them are not in. It’s a dictatorship that demands the common people surrender all beliefs not sanctioned by the state, that demolishes holy sites, a dictatorship that forces minorities into labor camps. It’s a dictatorship that commits hostile takeovers of neighboring nations and allies itself with multiple other dictatorships.

          Fewer disputes over it’s lifetime than the US in the last four years. Congrats, thanks for proving my point.

            I never brought up the US. You’re using them as a deflection from the topic at hand.

            All I did was refute your claim that “China operates on the principle of peace. Not constant war.” That claim is easily debunked. Why spread lies?

              Bringing up comparators is not deflection. And no, you didn’t refute my claim. Self defense is not offensive wars. You can be peaceful while being forced into war. Peaceful does not mean no violent, simply not seeking violence.

          Have you never learned literally anything about Tibet? Check out the wikipedia sections for pre 1950s Tibet, or simply Google Tibet given the news stories about the dalai lama tonguing a kid on tv.

        China actually vetoed a UN Ceasefire resolution in Gaza in March, so much for peace.

        Not to mention Chinese close friends and allies North Korea is constantly firing missiles into the ocean as a method of stick-waving at demilitarized Japan.

        Honestly weird that you think Uighur Muslims all need to go to rehab and work long unpaid hours until they die. Not how a normal human with empathy thinks, generally.

          The ceasefire resolution that didn’t free hostages held in Israel, enabled the IDF to indefinitely hold Gaza, and removed all self determination from gazans?

          Yes, even the Arab nations did not want that resolution, China, during the same sessions, called for an unconditional ceasefire.

          Lying about situations makes everything you have to say suspect.

          To your second point, you admit the US is committing genocide in Gaza. Right? We’re blaming countries for things their military allies do now, so the US is genocidal, according to you.

          To your third point less than 5% of the uighur population has ever been arrested, xinjiangs city council is mostly uighur Muslims, and no american gets to tell anthother country how to handle prisoners, given us prisons are worse than pretty much anywhere according to the UN, and the us arrests more minorities as a percentage of each minority population than China is claimed to have, much less the reality.
