I never shifted the goalposts. They have always been “saying Chinese people can’t talk about tiannamen is sinophobic and false”. After I explained in detail how that claim is sinophobic you asked for proof that it’s false and I asked to confirm that Chinese people speaking in their own words about tiannamen would constitute proof in your eyes and you said not unless it also refutes your claim that the Chinese government is authoritarian and controls speech.
I never said government criticism was racist. I said claiming Chinese people can’t talk about tiannamen is sinophobic.
You introduced the requirement that we incorporate a stance on the Chinese governments authoritarian and/or tyrannical nature into this discussion and it was you who mischaracterized my position as saying that any criticism of government is racist, which I directly refuted earlier in our discussion.
Since you’re talking about it, how is the Chinese government authoritarian?
