Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, April 23 (Reporter Zhu Chao) - In response to the U.S. State Department's recently released "Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2023," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin expressed strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition at a regular press briefing on April 23. Wang stated that the report's sections concerning China were filled with political lies and ideological bias, urging the U.S. to stop criticizing other countries' human rights situations and cease using human rights and democracy as pretexts to interfere in other countries' internal affairs and infringe upon their human rights.
"Year after year, the U.S. concocts so-called 'human rights reports' riddled with political lies and ideological bias against China, to which China is strongly dissatisfied and resolutely opposed," said Wang Wenbin.
He remarked that the Chinese people have the most authority to speak on the state of human rights in China. "We have historically resolved the issue of absolute poverty, developed democracy throughout the whole process, and established the world’s largest education, social security, and healthcare systems. The sense of gain, happiness, and security of the Chinese people continues to grow, marking a path of human rights development that suits our national conditions and aligns with the trends of the times. Surveys conducted by Harvard University over more than ten years show that over 90% of Chinese citizens are satisfied with the Chinese government."
Wang Wenbin pointed out that, in contrast, the so-called "human rights report" by the U.S. critiques the human rights conditions of nearly 200 countries and regions, yet conspicuously omits its own issues. This once again exposes the selfish nature of American hegemony and its hypocritical double standards. "If the U.S. truly cares about human rights, it should confront and properly address its domestic issues of gun violence, rampant drug issues, racial discrimination, and the trampling of human dignity; it should reflect on its foreign interventions and the human rights disasters caused by supplying arms to conflict regions. The U.S. ignores over 110,000 civilian casualties in Gaza and has vetoed United Nations Security Council efforts to cease fire in Gaza four times consecutively. This is a clear demonstration of the U.S. disregarding and trampling human rights."
"America's facade of caring about human rights while actually pursuing hegemony has long been recognized by the international community," Wang said. He concluded that the U.S. should introspect, address its own issues first, stop acting as the 'human rights preacher,' cease criticizing other countries’ human rights conditions, and stop using human rights and democracy as covers to meddle in other countries' internal affairs and violate their human rights, thereby exporting conflict and turmoil.

"This is deeply offensive, you're wrong and you suck."
"Anyway can I book a new hotel? Can I confirm another Yellen visit for June as well while we're at it? I hope you can you'll enjoy your stay we have a lot of important business deals to talk about!"
Clown party, talking about the UN and Gaza as if this is a gotcha. The audacity to peddle this shit 6 months into said genocide when China still hasn't even put a single sanction on Israel nor given unilateral support for Iran or anything else that matters in the real world. This is the same UN that was pro-Ukraine and against your great friend Russia lol.
This is the clown party that mourned Kissinger, just says US bad without actually standing up for anything except transactional relationships. Denounce US/Israel genocide in Gaza while hoping for normal relationship with said genocidal country.1
The Chinese people will always remember Kissinger's historic contribution to the normalization of China-US relations, Wang said.
"Time has proved, and will continue to prove, that the political resolution that Doctor Kissinger and Chinese leaders made back in those days is in line with the fundamental interests of people in both countries, the trend of the times and the expectation of the international community," he said.
Wang praised Kissinger, who passed away on Nov 29 at the age of 100, for his foresight as a diplomat, strategist and statesman.
Kissinger had always viewed China's development in an objective and friendly manner, Wang said.
Kissinger was convinced that China and the US should and must coexist in peace, Wang said, adding that the former US secretary of state was good at finding common ground and cooperation opportunities from differences between the two countries.
Don't get me wrong, the CPC is extremely correct on every internal issue, but their recent FP is an big pile of shit, embarrassing shit, you would be hard pressed to tell this is the "communist party" if you didn't know better.
Denounce US/Israel genocide in Gaza while hoping for normal relationship with said genocidal country.
China is still vulnerable to actions taken by the US. Even if you ignore the US's influence over world food supplies, the US military is still a major threat. Furthermore, today's globalised economy is fragile in many ways. Any misstep or failure point could trigger massive chaos. Remember how at the start of the Ukraine war, many countries were pushed toward extreme food insecurity?

You should write them a strongly worded email.
Some of your criticisms are quite unfair.
They appear to have placed "shadow sanctions"
