Because we live in a global community and what one country can get away with actually affects how our government treats us.

Because when we talk about our own country's problems the same people will just say "Oh boo-hoo, the way they do X in Y country is so much worse." You can't win with people who are scared of acknowledging humanity's self-inflicted damage.

Honestly even if what is happening wasn't horrible, people would want to talk about it because China is doing everything they can to keep people from talking about it.

Because were kinda getting effected by Chinese censorship right now too. China is just TOO big for Hollywood to ignore, so they tailor their movies towards whats acceptable in that country.

Yes because Iraq, Libya, Syria etc is doing so much better after US interference right? Or Russia under Yeltsin which lost most of its GDP and had to suck up to the IMF for money? If the US establishment hates you you're doing something right.

Because it's selective outrage. Liberals love to play the human rights and democracy card to advance their own agendas, when in fact they know nothing about the rest of the world other than from their biased MSM. As such protests in countries they hate gets round the clock media coverage, but protests in countries which suck up to them get ignored.

Do you know that at the same time in Ecuador the marginalized indigenous people are protesting and the President has already fled the capital? They were protesting the pro-US government introducing a heavy austerity package that punishes the poor, but of course since it makes the US look bad barely anytone know what's going on.

I haven't mentioned anything with HK at all, because it's none of my business and not my fight.
I'm sorry that you've been sucked in by youtube shills that exist to make money off of your clicks & views.
I'm also sorry that you (and others) don't know any better at this point.

Is it ironic to anyone that Trump has been right about China all along and it wasnt that long ago that folks on the left would mock him for his stance against China?

Who here said anything about having the US intervene militarily? That would never happen anyway, China has much more economic power than those countries, not to mention nukes.

More like people on the left didn't want Trump to anger China and start a war. Defeatism at its finest.

Tbh the way Trump went around dealing with China was completely stupid and likely played a hand in causing the current way China is acting.

Fenris is an legit Chinese shill from the politics and CE boards. He never posts about anything except defending China (almost always by deflecting to something unrelated) and his posts never read like they were made by an actual person. I almost wonder if he's trying to make China look bad.

Why is the CCP so entertained with what all these outsiders think about these hong kong protests?

Why don't they just you know fix their own country's problems, maybe they will actually make some changes by just bravely tolerating some dissenting opinions there.
