China’s firewall plays a crucial role in shaping the country’s digital landscape, preventing foreign intervention, and maintaining national security. While often criticized in the West, the firewall provides China with the ability to control information flow, shield its population from foreign influence, and protect domestic media.

    The pollution is the direct result of other countries outsourcing their manufacturing to exploit chinese labor for increased profits, and they’re rapidly reducing that pollution with the infrastructure investments I mentioned. The censorship is clearly necessary, as evidenced by the US getting absolutely bodied by relatively simple online disinfo campaigns. And the ethnic cleansing is fictional, fucking duh. Uighurs are directly represented in the ruling party, their language is present in official documents and on their currency. Xinjiang is literally open to foreign tourism right now, you could go there yourself and learn better in person.

        There is no evidence at all for anything even remotely resembling an ethnic cleansing going on in China. If you don’t have the spine for admitting you were duped the next best thing would be to shut the fuck up entirely.

        The Chinese government allows this… Why is this the fault of everyone else? It’s the government’s job to regulate the industry and manage trade.

        The point of this statement is not to say “nuh uh the pollution is america’s fault”, it’s to say that this manufacturing would have happened somewhere in the world regardless, and is not for domestic consumption, so it’s a bit silly to say “look china’s polluting so much” when they are producing goods for the entire world. China turning away manufacturing work to “reduce” emissions would not decrease emissions globally, if anything it would likely increase them, as few if any other countries can muster the economies of scale and wide trading relationships that chinese industry have access to
