    I think I’d go to China if I could. I feel like the US is gonna fuck over it’s allies first.

        As someone that supports Palestine I think my odds are significantly less likely of getting black bagged in China than in the US.

        US just making people disappear without due-process right now but western brain still thinks “China is the real dystopia”

          In the US making people disappear without due process is news, in China it’s a daily occurrence.

            Yeah. But the difference in China is the people that get disappeared are billionaires that started criticisming the government too much. Id rather we disappear some billionaires here. Instead of brown people protesting a genocide.

              Never heard of the Xinjiang concentration camps? In China it’s also mostly brown people who criticize the government who are disappeared, the billionaires are the exceptions that make the news.

              The USA might be getting worse, but it’s still a far cry from China.
