My reaction is completely normal of someone from China being told how my government is secretly suppressing me in ways they absolutely are not by an arrogant chauvinist with no real understanding of the situation on the ground. And I didn’t touch on the DPRK as despite it being a massive exaggeration to the point of effectively being a lie I understand for most white people nothing I say about it will ever invite a real reconsideration and proper investigation as the truth of the Kim family having outsized influence at current (despite it declining with each generation) is enough for them to dismiss all of the context and surrounding information.

I understand that the American government is full of lies and paints those it has labeled “enemy” in a web of falsehoods, but your calling a dynasty of inherited emperors “outsized influence” is worse than if I hand waved Elon musk as “outsized influence”. And the violent suppression of viewpoints in China is well verified. America is a capitalist hellscape. I don’t disagree. You can’t “whatabout” it to escape China and DPRK doing some heinous shit. No matter what horrible shit America does it doesn’t change the truth of what I said. You can pretend I support it in some way and am an easy to attack white person who just toes the party line because I benefit from the system. But none of that is true.
