Members of Kibbutz Hanita are suing the Chinese-controlled Ballet Vision fund for refusing to buy their remaining stake in an intraocular lens plant, citing losses and what it says is a Chinese government ban on new investments in Israel since the war
Good policy for bad (or at least not principled) reasons. It’s for money. They consider Israel “high risk” because of the war. China doesn’t give a shit about human rights. They send their own Muslims to concentration camps.
It’s also to say they have principles. It’s hard for the USA or Europe to criticize their human rights abuses while continuing to support Israel. It’s a way to highlight western hypocrisy while avoiding risk. Remember they still invest into other high risk countries. High risk can lead to high reward.
When they finished executing all those people who watched the show, they executed the people who caught them, for having seen the show too. Then they executed the judges for knowing what a TV show was. Then they executed me for posting about it. (I got better)
Eh, I heard the same thing about China, then I went there, and I heard the same thing about Iran, but everyone I talked to who’s actually been there had much more level-headed criticisms of the government than the horseshit the news makes up.
Wow I rarely say this about Chinese government but based.

Also, the current tensions in the region threatens China’s supply of cheap oil from Iran.
True. It’s a state. I can’t think of a time a state did something for purely altruistic reasons.

I find it easy to criticize both where warranted
The literal hellscape on earth North Korea is right next door, they just recently got done executing citizens for watching a TV show
There’s obviously more to this

What?
Do you really believe North Korea executes people for watching TV?
Yup and it’s not the only country that does.
Do all the countries you believe ridiculous things about happen to be enemies of the US?
You’re a dumbass. North Korea"s treatment of human life is well documented Internationally.
So is their necromancy, since tons of people declared “executed” by tabloids are later seen alive.
