thats the thing though, is it oppression if they have no clue about you or what being trans even is? is it oppression by that country if other countries, which have expertise, arent providing aid and training for doctors on handling trans patients? i could see it as being a different aspect of life but i wouldnt feel comfortable comparing it to life in america, which is like living in hell because we are the preeminent culture war issue
and for the record, china does have trans healthcare in larger cities like shanghai and beijing, but there is a staffing issue, not enough docs with trans training which is again an issue of lack of awareness
homosexuals were persecuted, yes that's oppression
If you are a Communist, you don't need to defend every aspect of every Communist state (yeah oxymoron, w/e), it's okay to say "they did some things wrong"
im talking about trans issues right now because ive personally talked to other trans people there. from what i understand in asia generally trans people have it slightly better socially than gay people for a variety of reasons
