The Western capitalist states just did a twenty year long “war on terror” based on lies, causing the deaths of millions, and are complicit in supporting a 15 month long genocide of Palestinians, and you’re super-concerned about China’s human rights abuses as reported by those same Western states, which are virulently anti-communist and known to push BS anti-communist narratives for the last century?
Neither Washington nor Beijing, but actually Washington.
The difference is nobody's denying (well I'm sure the right-wing nut jobs are anyways) it.
And also now you've just devolved into the classic tankie "whataboutism" as if what the West does at all excuses what China/Russia are doing.
The censorship and suppression of freedoms in China are well documented.
