In response to Re hypocrites (Rafael)

Just like millions of Chinese who come to our western countries

YOUR western countries.

If your 'western country' is the U.S., Australia, or Canada, your ancestors murdered and enslaved the indigenous populations prior to "allowing" subsequent immigrants to "prosper" on your invaded 'homeland' and its stolen resources. Gracious privilege indeed.

If your 'western country' is England your ancestors were gregarious enough to invade many nations, including China, to murder and pillage on a wholesale, eventually corporate, basis.

It is perhaps your misfortune to 'occupy' China at a time when it is able to defend itself.

But you might pardon the Chinese for lacking sympathy for your plight or granting you entitlement status. You are not a citizen. You are not a permanent resident. You are not a refugee. You are temporary immigrant labor.

Happily, every day there are flights from China to YOUR home that you contend continues to treat its immigrant labor so remarkably well.
