Tibet is China. Hong Kong is China. On the other hand, Venezuala, Vietnam, Iran, Yemen, Lebanon, Serbia, Syria, Iraq, Cuba, Laos, Cambodia, ... non of them are USA. Plus USA is the only nation that burn alive with Naplm bombs 100000 civilians in one night and droped two nuclear bombs on civilians.

Bottom line, China is not ideal but USA is way much worse, from the World point of view and that for Americans is the ugly truth they don't want to look at.

    Hmmmm the fact that China says Hong Kong and Tibet are part of China but much of Hong Kong and Tibet disagrees tells me there's more to the story there.

    I'm not even a China hater but...c'mon lol

    Hong Kong maybe, but Tibet is no more China than Cuba is part of the US. They're two distinct cultures with different histories. You might as well say Korea is China, Vietnam is China.

    I said “China is not ideal, but the US is much worse.” I am NOT defending the Chinese occupation of Tibet (or whatever that is), but the US is much worse than that. Only Nazi Germany, Stalin’s USSR, and modern Israel are worse nations than the US today. China, despite their crimes, is much better. From a world perspective.

    Tibet is China. Hong Kong is China.

    Again, they might disagree

    Plus USA is the only nation that burn alive with Naplm bombs 100000 civilians in one night and droped two nuclear bombs on civilians.

    Are you from China, perchance?
    You did comparably atrocious things to a comparable number of your own citizens.

    Oh, and my own country (Russia) seems to be eager to one day one up you on that, btw.
