    But he is genociding the Uyghurs though and what about Tibet and the threats to Taiwan?

      There’s a hell of a lot more Tibetans who speak Tibetan and Uyghurs who speak Uyghur than Hawaiians who speak Hawaiian.

      I mean some will make the argument that Tibetan culture was destroyed by the secularization of their school system and removing the lamas from power, but those people are defending a theocracy that practiced slavery.

        Your whataboutism is great and all but doesn’t change the reality of China.

          My point is that we can look at genocides to understand what they look like. You don’t see a 75 year life expectancy during a genocide.
