Ok, yes, that is true. But the USA commits war crimes and doesn't want to be brought before court over them. So I should stop using US goods if I gave a shit about human rights, right?


Throwing up your hands and saying "everyone's bad" is just moral laziness. I'm not American and it's obvious China is far worse than the USA in terms of human rights.


Not really if you are not a citizen of said country.

Or to put it in numbers:

- 80% of the world population is not Chinese, and are not affected by China.

- 95% of the world population is not American, and are very much affected by the US.
