Less China bashing requires less actions that require bashing.
Okay sure. Abolish the CCP, free all uyghurs, free Hong Kong, free Tibet, remove the great firewall, apologize for the great leap forward; not to the EU but to your own Population, apologize for the great cultural revolution deaths, Tianenmen square... do i have to go on?
Stop flying fighter jets over Taiwan, stop predatory lending in Africa, stop with the spy balloons, stop propping up NK, stop supporting Russia, stop selling the West melamine in their baby formula…
Tankies and Centrists are fuming right now.
Stay out of other countries affairs - China
Openness is mutual.
And I want a free and open society. But that's never going to happen sooooooo.
I support more China bashing
It really makes me laugh how sensitive they are. They’ll kill people to keep a little satire from being heard. It’s ridiculous. Have they seen the withering condemnation and ridicule that the US government endures? Grow some backbone CCP.
I really love how the current german government is finally taking a stance against Chinas policies.
You first - Europe
Wouldn’t it be great if China could do the same to their own people..? Something something stone throwing glass house.
“We want your auto and technology manufacturing sector, not your disdain.”
-China
This is the best summary I could come up with:
BERLIN, Sept 29 (Reuters) - China's ambassador to Germany called for Europe to be more open to Chinese investment, urging deeper cooperation in areas such as electric cars and 5G technology after a series of clashes.
Berlin is in the process of reassessing its relationship with China, a country it dubs both a partner and a rival.
As part of that process, Germany's interior ministry has proposed forcing telecoms operators to curb their use of equipment made by China's Huawei (HWT.UL) and ZTE, a move Huawei has criticised as the "politicisation" of cyber security.
"We hope that Europe will show more openness and self-confidence on the issue of electromobility and Huawei's [RIC:RIC:HWT.UL] 5G technology," Wu Ken said at a reception in Berlin late on Thursday to mark the 74th anniversary of the founding of modern China.
"China is in any case prepared to deepen a cooperation with Europe and Germany in which all parties profit."
"But this fear of change and competition should not lead us to stray from the path (of cooperation) or erect barriers."
The original article contains 263 words, the summary contains 176 words. Saved 33%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
The whole of China can line up to lick my taint I ain't gonna stop bashing them or any other country.
China’s ambassador to Germany called for Europe to be more open to Chinese investment
Like how foreigners are free to invest in China and get actual ownership stakes and legal protections? Oh, wait.
I thought that would be a good thing.
Foreign companies would be required for citizens to own part of that company. China did it first though, others can have a similar thing. In the US we forced tiktok to a certain degree.
Helps keep interests in the country it is in?

A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
