The USA is currently in shambles and all this China bashing is a witch hunt to distract from the problems at home.

Eh, you're half right. The US is in shambles, but ideological competition from China isn't a distraction. The Chinese government is consciously opposed to many values that Westerners care quite deeply about: https://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/20/world/asia/chinas-new-lea.... The issue is that, unlike with Soviet Communism, the West may not be able to rise to the occasion this time.


As if everyone talking here were from the US. The US currently being in shambles doesn't justify any of China's human rights violations, imperialistic policies or genocides.
