    The CCP’s interests don’t always align with the wellbeing of Chinese people. The interests of Russia’s elite are even more divorced from the will of Russians.

    You’re bringing up counterexamples that I literally already refuted with previous examples. Slavery existed in the colonial US. The founding fathers put an end date on slavery because they knew it was a plague on society. People later on extended that date. Tensions rose until a civil war broke out. African Americans had more rights but weren’t equal. Unrest rose until lawmakers gave them more rights. Similar thing with women.

    Where in that paragraph do I state that genocide is good? Where do I support exploitation?

      Who determines whose interest is bigger? If you think you can determine that, how are you different from the CCP or the Russian elite? If you can’t, why do you say the interest of those who attach their feelings to a car, a window or a pig is not as important as those who attach their feelings to a dog?
