  • I think we should post about both. I'm British and feel free to critique my government and the shitty actions and war crimes we have conducted in the past. Education and awareness is key.

    Is it biased for some to focus on China and not others? Absolutely. Is it racist? No. And that really is a dangerous precedent we shouldn't allow. Israel often uses racism (and accusations of antisemitism) to explain criticism on their actions and focus only on their actions. It absolutely not. Criticism of nation states and their actions of important and we shouldn't allow governments to duck scrutiny. Atrocities committed against people of any race, religion or viewpoint are wrong, and we can never be allowed to justify them, or we are simply no better, just biased in a different way.

    I have been worried about trends to suppress and delete comments about it (ml) under the guise of racism. I find liberal biases and whining absolutely tiresome, but giving them justifiable ammunition isn't helping to win any arguments.

    I appreciate my post my not be received well, but I certainly feel it is important that it us said.
