    China literally holds our citizens hostage to attempt to force us to permit their espionage. Openly operates police depots on Canadian territory to terrorize people here. It’s not the fucking same.

      I’m not talking about that. Please stay on topic. My simple statement is true, and doesn’t mean that I love China. I don’t. You’ll never catch me ever talking positive about China or ever stepping foot in China.

        How convenient! It’s on topic because it should be informing your choice who you want exploiting you.

        Will you never have a loved one step foot in China? Will you never come to care for the Chinese Canadians and their families abroad who are vulnerable, or is it enough that it doesn’t affect you personally? China’s government has no problem using people’s families against them.

          You’re unhinged and insufferable. I said none of those things. Please, get help.

          You’re upset because I think China having my data vs the US is the slightly lesser of two evils.

          If I could pick, I’d pick no one having my data. Both countries are shit and both countries would do bad things with my data. One has less control over me, so I’d pick that one, I guess.
