    So when a person shows up at your house with a gun, you should also just move out and hand it over?

      That’s not the right analogy here. The better analogy would be something like:

      Your scary mafia-related neighbor shows up with a document saying your land belongs to his land. You said no way, you have connections with someone important that assured you your house is yours only and they’ll help you with another mafia if they want to invade your house. The whole neighborhood gets scared of an upcoming bloodbath that might drag everyone into it.

      But now your son says he actually agrees that your house belongs to your neighbor, and he’s likely waiting until you’re old enough to possibly give it up to him.

      According to western media like Instagram, Facebook, X. I should go outside of my house when Israelis come into my doorsteps and take my house. I should also use my hard earned tax money to supply them with more weapons so they can steal more of our houses.

      But when China does it with Tiktok, it’s bad. bad

      I’m so tired if europeans and people of european descent pretending like they have moral high ground over China. I’m done with the double standards. I’m tired of how colonized their brains are.

      Both China and USA (and Europe) are in the wrong with everything.

        I’m impressed by how many narratives you’re able to tie me to out of the blue. And just for the record my parents are from Iran so take your “Europeans and people of European descent” bla bla narrative somewhere else. Geopolitics is filled with nefarious actors and calling out any of them is never a problem. You’re a problem.

        One side doing bad things doesn’t make another side doing bad things ok. Democracy isn’t perfect but it is better than the rest of the systems. Money in politics sours the pot.

          shouldn’t it be priority then to cleanup the deadly rot at home than pointing fingers on scratched paint on the other side of globe. china isn’t doing or funding a mass murder like us (again)

          we are going to be spitted on everytime we talk about democracy and human rights when we fund and bodyguard the most murderous parasites on earth.

          and what democracy when more than 70% of voters think israel should have been stopped years ago.
