China has some serious skeletons, for sure, but if China is evil, is the US also evil? We export far more weapons and we have bombed far more civilians. We are actively funding the genocide of Palestine as we speak.

Isn't it weird how obsessed western media is with the 'tank man' photo when Greece used their tanks to crush greek college students to death and yet we aren't even taught it?

The global oligarchy is evil. The US is full of schmucks allowing themselves to be used by the oligarchy to commit atrocities... Same as China, same as Russia, etc. I suppose it depends where you draw the line for "evil"... Are you evil for carrying out evil orders or just the person giving the orders is evil? What about the person who feeds the person carrying out the orders, are they evil too? How about the bus driver who drives the cook to the place where s/he feeds the person carrying out the orders?

If you take it far enough, one could say that as long as evil is allowed to occur anywhere on earth, we are all evil through complicity
