I wouldn't put too much stock into this article, US media has always had a history of portraying their biggest competitors to US hegemony as inherently evil.

This is about a missing tennis player who accused someone within the Chinese government of a horrible crime. You tell me what you think that means.

 

[Swamps]

No. I don't want to hear what you have to say Swamps, because we all literally know what you'll say.

Fair enough. I'll drop the subject completely. Won't even discuss it in the political thread.

 

[Grim]

Not to mention the Chinese Government literally runs concentration camps and possibly other things we haven't even heard about, I think it would be fair to say the Chinese Government is in fact Evil.

The Xinjiang conspiracy has been debunked numerous times, so I don't feel like rehashing old drama.

Oh yeah, not every person from China is some secret government spy seeking to destroy the "capitalist society" of the US, but I don't know what exactly you'd call an Authoritarian government with proven cases of censorship, state-owned media outlets, control of information, and dictation of the rights of its citizens anything other than evil.
