Last I checked liberals are all about respecting rules and international law, so we're just holding you to your own standards here.

I'm not obligated to respect laws when the laws don't respect human rights. Slavery was legal at once point. The holocaust was legal at one point. Was I ever obligated to respect those laws?

The PRC objectively has a better human rights record than the RoC.

Good thing China has a far better human rights record than the west.

It really doesn't unless you believe the state media that's allowed to come out of it. Even then, they publicly reject any lgbt type content.

Calling it “vulgar, immoral and unhealthy content”.

Even going so far as to jail a women for 10 years for producing BL content.

There's really no reason to believe western oligarch owned media over Chinese state media. Of course, western propagandists rely on people such as yourself being already primed to believe the worst possible things about China making their work pretty easy.

The second article is AnimeNewsNetwork and they link to Chinese owned media.

The second article links to Malaysian media.

Good thing you're doing sober examination and study into life in China without western bias, how it has improved real living conditions for its people, and applying that principle equally across the board
