Unbelievable the crap China gets away with while the rest of the world just looks on and lets them get away with virus spreading, currency manipulation and dictatorship. . 1 country can't take us all. WAKE UP WORLD!! Get your head out of your rears and stand up to these idiots.

China is 100000x more of a threat to humanity than any 3rd world middle eastern, sand dwelling toilet we love to invade

True, but that would be mean cutting off our smartphones.

You're telling the world to wake up, but they are awake. They are more afraid of the USA than they are of China. Out of the two, I'm sure you can figure out which one has invaded more sovereign nations in the past couple decades. I would say China's neighbors have something to worry about perhaps... But most of the world doesn't consider China a threat because they don't believe they have the means, will or desire to launch an effective long range invasion and win.

They do have Americans that will help them...

Considering some of the pro dumocracy organizations out there I don't blame them.

I remember the old people being beaten by the protestors in Hong Kong. I know who turned a vlind eye to it also.

You are being lied to and brainwashed again by Western media and politicians.

This guy is not even Chinese (in fact, he admitted that he used to be a fierce China critic, having published lots of anti-Chinese articles in the past, until he started to dig deeper and finally made a u-turn), but he lives in Hong Kong and makes very revealing observations that the NYT, Guardian etc. won't tell you:

What's to be expected? They've been perpetrating these aggressive actions for many decades now. You can find systematised examples of this on a mass scale during the Cultural Revolution. Things that were deemed offensive or incompatible with the system were called the "four olds". Today they still practice abhorrent activities such as forced labour, organ harvesting of the Falun Gong, and not too long ago the one child policy.
