Ron Wyden also commented.

"Blizzard shows it is willing to humiliate itself to please the Chinese Communist Party. No American company should censor calls for freedom to make a quick buck."

When a Democratic and Republican politician both agree, you know you really fucked up.
Smh BLIZZARD. Should really just declare Chinese citizenship.

Don't worry, with any luck China will push to exclude gays and other undesirables from their market

Weird. I've been hearing about people complaining about females with big boobs in videogames. Seriously who gets mad at big boobs?

People with guts that stick out past their boobs, potentially with short, dyed hair? Maybe dudes with soyboy beards? Somebody must, and they probably arent hot.

China is one of those great subjects where Democrats and Republicans can unite in their virtue-signalling. Personally, I think the whole thing is stupid and hypocritical. It's also pretty hard to ignore the power dynamic involved, where the Western nations are threatened by China's rising influence.

However, I don't want that to be misconstrued as condoning China's illegal trade practices, illegal attempted seizure of the South China Sea, downright horrific human rights record, or blatant disregard for the environment which would make even the most hardcore capitalists wince.

Except for the past two years, Democrats have been rolling their eyes and maligning Trump as some sort of ignorant boob in regards to his stance on China. It turns out Trump has been right about how awful a regime they are, and how dangerous they are, and the Democrats have egg on their faces for it.

LMAO!

How the mighty have fallen.

Ive always been a FFXI kinda guy in the 2000s. And I hate Overwatch and the fact that it motivated Respawn to make pre-made characters on Apex Legends. Thats one of, if not, the main reason I dont play that shit.

Well, he was by far the most vocal critic on the campaign trail and iirc was one of the only people to actually address China's illegal encroachment within the South China Sea (although Jim Webb made a bigger deal about the South China Sea and other issues). Since then, he's been one of China's most vocal critics. And he's pushed tariffs that most politicians wouldn't have the balls to suggest, even if he hasn't had the balls to fully put them into place (and, of course, he's failed to build an international coalition that could have a more substantial impact)

It's sad but most politicians are not talking about this issue because they themselves receive funding from a giant corporation that's interested in doing business in China.

Trump hates China for the same reason he hates Canada, Germany, England, or a host of other nations: Because they don't suck up to his bullshit. He couldn't give a rats ass about their actual abuses of power, as shown by him cozying up to many other dictators (and even Xi on occasion).

If he actually wanted to do anything about China he would be strengthening ties with his NATO allies in order to isolate China, but if anything he's doing the opposite. Canada's two biggest trading partners are the US and China, and we were being pushed into a closer relationship with China because of Trump's efforts to fuck over both countries. Fortunately the whole Huawei situation served as a wake up call, but even now people are pushing back against the States and suggesting China would be a better ally going forward. That situation is even worse in nations like Australia and New Zealand.

You act like every country is waiting for their chance to condemn China.

The truth is they're all as terrified of offending China as everyone else in power.

I'm not sure if you're calling conservatives Nazis or suggesting that there are actual Nazi politicians today, but regardless it's both ridiculous and wrong although par for your usual trolling and harassment.
