    If it was wrong for the West to do it, it is wrong for China to do it as well. It’s just so sad to see all the apologists China has right

    Very well said. People can be shitty and sometimes do very horrible things.

    And according to the comments up-and downvotes( 54 to 10) , that’s almost 20% are still apologists. Thats 20% too many.
