They've really just made sinophobia the default
The thing is Sinophobia didn't come alone. It got imported with all forms right-wing bigotry such as racism, misogyny(default), Transphobia, homophobia, Islamophobia (also default), zionism, hatred for the poor, outright fascism etc. Every mainstream sub I get recommended is trying make trans and colored people look like 'radical woke nuisance'. Reddit accepts this because that's what its capital owners want.
I've meant the societal default, even among people who brand themselves as "progressive", it's literally
Thing: ☺️
Thing, China: 😡
It's strange, it feels almost dogmatic because I'm the opposite way of thinking, constantly. E.g "thing: >:( / Thing, China: :D" but it's genuinely hard to not prove it as an orthodoxy when the opposite side is building open-air migrant camps.
Oh yeah. The "But at what cost" trope.
