    So you’re saying that if America stops watching the news and instead focuses on itself, China will stop committing genocide? Shit I wish we knew this sooner.

      That’s not what I said. The media wants you to worry about China so they can manipulate public opinion. Worrying about what’s happening in China serves to distract you from the problems you have agency to control in America. There’s a reason they don’t tell you about the war in Yemen. Because it doesn’t serve capital’s interests. China is a threat to capital’s interests, so they want you to be scared of them.
