Hey. I want you to Google the name Fred Hampton and find out what America does to it's minority who speaks out.
Maybe consider we have a larger prison population than the 1.whatever billion people. Largely made of our minorities.
Take a mirror to yourself before you throw stones.
This isn't to say China doesn't deserve criticism. The point is that many of your "they are an evil dictatorship who slaughters minorities!" Doesn't hold up when we, a democracy, is doing the same thing but worse.
Some Americans believe we're screwed in Europe. I had a US boss trying to "save me" from the "socialist hellhole" that is Switzerland by trying to convince me to move to the US. Some believe Islam is going to sweep across Europe and turn us all into jihadists.
Islam supplanting christianity in europe would unironically be a change for the better
I'm afraid Christianity is sweeping across America and turning us into yeehawdists
Average European populist be like..
Yes China is a dictatorship and theres a lot of censorship. I would still choose living in China over the US 1000 times.
