              So you’re saying China treats Hong Kong as an internal colony? I don’t think that’s borne out by the facts but I’m happy to hear your argument.

            As a Canadian, first example that comes to mind is the apparent involvement of a killing in Canada.

            But nothing personally against you or any other Indian, same as nothing against any Chinese.

        Oh, like kill 50 million + citizens through internal war and poor planning.

        Take away individual liberties and develop the most insane surveillance culture in the world.

        Commit to a slow burn genocide of Muslims.

        Pump out more billionaires than the US for the last two years while massively increasing the income gap.

        They did raise hundreds of millions of people out of abject poverty so you have got to give them that. But then immediately take it away when you learn they are the fourth/fifth largest supplier of arms in the world.

        Aside from all the politic shit. They tried to end my existence via the enforcement of the One Child Policy. I was the 2nd child in my family, they nearly ended me.

        Thank god I got lucky and somehow lived.

        Not the user you responded to, but I got a vendetta against PRC, it’s personal.

            That’s if they don’t catch you.

            My mom told me the first hand account of how women would just get forced abortions.

            Like there are lots of women that was pregnant with their 2nd unapproved child, then the government found out and they’d force you go get an abortion.

            My mom managed to hide me till like month 8 of the pregnancy, then like someone found out but they turned one eye blind and didn’t report it.

            I mean I don’t exactly understand the full story either, its not like mom wrote a diary on it.

            Basically it was a combination of many factors that lead to me surviving.

            There was an issue of jurisdictions, they mostly left it local governments to enforce, mom was from Taishan and she was working in Guangzhou when she had me, and she was supposed to submit a pregnancy test every 3 months and send results back to their hometown. But mom told me she got another woman to take the pregnancy test for her under her name.

            So like, the people working for the Guangzhou government didn’t enforce it as harshly because she wasn’t registered in their Hukou.

            Perhaps a god exists and they intervened? idk, not really that religious…

            I barely lived, and yes there’s a fine, like somewhere in the ¥20000-¥30000 rmb which was a lot in the 2002s.

              • invading Ukraine
              • invading Iraq twice, bombing Iran, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, bombing Yugoslavia, arming a genocide in Guatemala, invading Afghanistan, invading Vietnam, bombing Cambodia and Laos, funding a genocide in Indonesia, funding a genocide in East Timor, funding a genocide in Gaza
              • invading all your neighbors all the time

                Well, China didn’t invade anyone in the last decade because they’ve already annexed the territories they wanted. It’s not like Uyghurs and Tibetans stopped getting genocided because their territories are already internationally recognised as part of the PRC.

                And they do fund multiple conflicts outside of their own country, like the aforementioned invasion of Ukraine.

                I definitely think you’re right in that there are degrees to the evil these countries are perpetrating on the innocent.

                  If that the case let’s look who vote with evil things in the UN it’s a clear record where countries stand. This will put UK, France, Belgium, Germany, Canada, Australia, India, Argentina at the top of the list.
