Have you been to China? Know anyone from there? Or is your opinion on what they deserve based entirely on TV headlines? Do you relate to them as humans? That’s what I need to see before I take anyone’s condemnation of any group of people seriously.

I’m disputing none of the facts you raise, I just don’t think it’s reason enough to label the entire country as an enemy state and shut the door like a petulant child. Especially in light of the horrifying atrocities that we ourselves are funding.

The pentagon, not US citizenry, decide the adversaries of the state.

GP is just stating that fact. The citizens’ opinion on the matter are irrelevant - the pentagon is not a democratic institution.
