I second this. I love Chinese people and culture, hell, I'm even learning Chinese to be able to communicate with my Chinese gf's parents, however CCP ≠ Chinese people.
However, when you travel in China, you don’t have to travel far before you realise that broadly the Chinese support their government because things are getting better and in many places are on par or better than the west.
I don't think I'll ever voluntarily go to China. I've said bad things about the CCP, so I'll most likely be on some kind of list.
As for your other claims, i honestly doubt it.
I love how you start off by saying you've never been to China and you never intend to go, then immediately discard the claims of someone that's been there a lot.
You're not the only person I know who been to China.
Ha ha fair enough.
