Chinese originated spam and abuse is so outrageously widespread, I don’t understand why there isn’t a conversation going on about cutting them off from the wider internet. They blocked most of it anyway.

The other trending article on HN today is about Chinese fishing boats abusing the world's oceans. Its ok, we'll learn to get used to it.

Any criticism of China can be construed as being pro-US and we can't have that. Criticism of Chinese traditional medicine, which is a forcing function for the endangering and extinction of species across the globe, is also unacceptable since criticism of any aspect of a culture is just racism (unless it's the one culture that's okay to criticize).

As long as the truth doesn't match what the preferred narrative is we'll continue to suffer the consequences, which is true of so many things beyond just attitudes towards China.

> the one culture that's okay to criticize

That would be one's own culture, whichever one that is.
