Chinese Courts Rule Companies Cannot Fire Workers Simply to Replace Them With AI - Judges classify AI adoption as a controllable business strategy rather than an unavoidable disruption, shielding employees from automation-driven layoffs
Your entire response is just Whataboutism. You’re still simping for the man, just the Chinese man instead of the American one.
Not when their friends in The Philippines or Israel are doing it.
In truth I don’t know anything about the government in the Philippines right now; if they are running camps then there is a shameful lack of media coverage about it.
But vastly more people in the US are horrified by the plight of the Palestinians than that of the Uyghurs, primarily because they feel at least indirectly responsible for it.
But the people calling out the mistreatment of the Uyghurs aren’t silent about the Palestinians.
As far as the Chinese posture towards Taiwan, we have intelligence and data documenting their military buildup for at least a decade. They are building amphibious assault ships (https://youtu.be/DtrGMsGsZiU) and verbally making public statements about reunification.
I don’t think we should expect China to do a bunch of random piddle-farting around with arbitrary bombing like US policy under Trump. Mainly because that is not at all what their consolidation of authority in Hong Kong looked like, but also because they’re not fucking dumbasses like Trump.
If the Chinese killed them, it’s relevant to a discussion about China. If the US killed them, it’s not relevant unless it caused some reaction within China.
You cannot engage about the rightness/ wrongness of Chinese domestic policy without stopping to bash the United States. That is Whataboutism.
Perhaps your goal is really just to point out America’s hypocrisy, but you certainly go out of your way defending China’s actions if that is your goal.

As of May 2026, the U.S. has deployed NMESIS (Navy-Marine Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System) anti-ship missiles to the Philippines, specifically on islands near Taiwan.
Why would a country worried about its sovereignty and domestic security be worried about a neighboring territory bulking up its military in their backyard? You can analyze the US policy towards Cuba by considering the Cuban Missile Crisis and its consequences. Why would Chinese politicians not have similar concerns with Taiwan and respond in kind? Why would Chinese policymakers be obligated to ignore the history of Cuba when making their own Taiwanese policies?

You’re accusing China of invading Taiwan, a thing it categorically hasn’t done.
I think planning and posturing for their attack on Taiwan can still be counted as military adventurism.
But killing tens of thousands of people is Whataboutism?
Liberalism in a nutshell.
If the Chinese killed them, it’s relevant to a discussion about China. If the US killed them, it’s not relevant unless it caused some reaction within China.
