If you'd read the article, you'd know they didn't imprison a Bloomberg journalist, they imprisoned a Chinese national working as an assistant in Bloomberg's office. If they imprisoned an American who had the support of the embassy, that would seem much more like fair play to me.
the main Communist parties of basically every country in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Europe all support China
While (unlike you) I'm not willing to speak broadly about places I don't know much about, I do closely follow the politics of two countries in these regions, and in those two cases the pro-China left factions are a small part of a much larger ecosystem of left groups. I suspect there's some tautology to your thinking here--the only "communist" parties in these areas are the ones that support Chinese capitalism.
