> if you’re demanding a certain standard from China or other countries, you should demand that in the US as well

America not being a dictatorship, there are people demanding this. Through elected leaders. Through independent courts. Through Constitutionally-protected assembly and protest.

None of the above apply in China. And they’re rapidly eroding in Hong Kong, too.

Yes, we should be outraged by police violence in America. But it’s a matchstick to the blast furnace that is Xi’s regime of secret police, political repression and concentration camps.
