    Eh I disagree about the Sinophobia thing, they’re not expressing fear or dislike of Chinese people, they’re criticizing the chinese government.

    Criticizing an authoritarian government =/= racism. People =/= their government.

      In comments I’ve seen, the person you’re responding to has always resisted that distinction when it comes to China, though decidedly less so when wishing collapse upon the US. Speaking of the US, apparently our use of color for advertising is literally worse than the Holocaust!

        I find use of colour being worse than the holocaust hard to believe, y’know, as a jew.

        Also, thank you for pointing that out, I won’t spend anymore energy on the argument!
