In China your allegiance is first to Xi Jinping not Jesus.

Porn is strictly illegal in China.

However, gay dating apps are all legal.
Do you know Grindr is mostly owned by China? (And it is widely used in China.)
Communism at it's best. Censoring.

It is hard to say whether it is good or bad. Just different.
I came from communist/socialist country, so i'm going to assume you are willfully ignorant of the dangers of that governmental style. The united states is the land of the free forever and into perpetuity.

You can say it is an authoritarian society, which is true.
But most developing countries (including contemporary Russia) are like that, for whatever reason.
Keep telling yourself that, not going to make it true.

You obviously don't. I understand though. Willfully ignorant.

I’ve never understood why democrats don’t call out China and many muslim countries for their abuse and oppression of gays.

China builds Ports, toll roads and toll bridges for a country, China also tells those countries that they must hire Chinese workers and companies. And then when the country can not pay the principle and interest, China gains control of the port and everything built on the property belonging to the port. same for the bridges and roads. Its kind of like the Panama Canal was for us.

Smart, and this is why "nation building" matters.

This is really interesting. One of my friends told me they were doing this.

It's no secret they want to take over the world. This is why I can't believe

Biden takes up for them. It baffles the mind and scares the you know what out of me.
