    From IP theft, to secret police stations in foreign countries, human rights abuses etc…

    At this point you could literally be talking about the US with this sentence.

      What do you mean? 'Murica doesn’t use anything uncouth as foreign police stations; they only have sparkling extradition treaties and Interpol! Don’t put The Leaders of the Free World™ with the barbaric Chinese!

      /s obviously screw them both.

        Our last standing differentiator was IP law, until we got weapons of mass IP destruction in the form of AI companies and LLMs.

            No it isn’t. You were trying to cast China in a harsher light for doing “for decades” most of the same things the US has been doing (also mostly for decades).

            Everyone sucks in this situation.
