      Israel is quite bad, yes, and the genocide is horrible, but I’d argue China is illustrative of what comes after democracy fails in a place and it has passed through the stage that Israel is currently in.

      China is a totalitarian state where information is so tightly controlled and the people so thoroughly decieved (or enslaved) that industrialized genocide is carried out at a scale unseen since the Nazis without the general population knowing or even caring.

      That kind of “civilized” totalitarianism in which dissent is quite literally not possible is the terminus of any form of facism. When Orwell talked about a boot stamping on a human face forever, that’s what China is.

      So no, as bad as Israel is and as much as they need to be confronted and are untrustworthy, China is far worse.

      Israel and China are both authoritarian shitholes, but China is much worse. Boycott both of them, as well as all the other authoritarian shitholes on this planet
