The thing that the US supports in Yemen? Seems like they could be great buddies with China.

Nope. That's bs. There was no genocide. And that still doesn't make China an enemy of the west even if true. We do business with countries worse than China all the time. We ignored claims of genocide when we signed up for Chinese involvement in uk nuclear

I mean, this is a little silly. This isn’t 2002. Its 2022. I’m not particularly interested in debating if water is wet.

One word; Uyghurs. Doing business with China in 2022 is doing business with Hitler and Nazi Germany.

No need to list any more reasons, though plenty exist.

China have opened the doors to an investigation of the Uyghurs claims made by those who wish to slow China's progress. But I guess that's silly to actually look into the facts. You're right, it's probably best just to ignore that and believe what certain, albeit proven fake news outlets, tell us to believe. The fact we did business with China after those claims were made, ignoring them, shouldn't be taken into consideration

Uyghur doesn't make China an enemy of the west though. And we're doing business with China still

Right. And IBM did business with the Nazis. Hows that look in hindsight?

But since you’re such an ardent China supporter how about you explain;

  • Disregard to the HK agreement
  • Taiwan
  • Covid response; repatriation of medical supply and delayed alert to WHO and international community
  • Currency manipulation
  • Unreciprocated trade agreements
  • Fentanyl
  • Overfishing banned fisheries
  • Chinese police stations on sovereign country soil
  • Canada specific: Two Michaels

And more that I cant recall in 30 seconds.

Non of that list makes China an enemy. I could argue each point individually. But meh. Not one point there makes them the enemy. As for trading with a country that has been accused of genocide, well, that argument is on moral grounds. Morality and differences does not make them the enemy.

This has been a very amusing conversation.

So how does it work? Do you get paid per post? How much of the content that you engage with do you actually care about?

Curious how it all actually works. We all have to eat, so Im not even faulting you.

All news sources. I'm currently, like right now, researching how much USA owes China. It's 1.08 trillion. There's no particular news source. I read them all for things that are of interest
