Re << fomenting nationalism … >>Yeup, bad trend, and possibly worse, as the tempo of attack on China China China rises, reasonable to assume that China China China CCP will fight back, and will be seen as interference in domestic affairs, as well as incitement, but actually just Tik for Tok

Speaking of which, CNN appears to be oblivious to the China China China warning, and thinks only Australia and Canada are open to open-season, and CNN thinks China China China is vulnerable w/r to Xinjiang

Should CNN be wrong, then … well, let us not speculate, except I note that China China China is so far proving to be resilient to CoVid, and Australia and Canada not as resilient

China is attacking the West's colonial legacy. That may backfire on Beijing



On Tuesday, China urged the United Nations Human Rights Council to carry out a "thorough and impartial investigation" into Canada's treatment of its Indigenous people, after the remains of hundreds of children were found in unmarked graves at two former residential schools in British Columbia and Saskatchewan.

"Simply apologizing is not enough, and Canada must take actual actions to correct its mistakes," said Jiang Duan, minister of the Chinese mission to the UN in Geneva.



And Canada isn't the first Western country to be targeted by Beijing in this way. Over the past six months, China has repeatedly attacked Australia's ongoing mistreatment of its Indigenous population and highlighted allegations of war crimes by Australian soldiers in Afghanistan.
Both Canada and Australia have far from spotless human rights records, especially when it comes to treatment of their Indigenous peoples. By talking publicly about these injustices, the Chinese government believes it is exposing Western hypocrisy on human rights. Experts, however, say Beijing also risks exposing its own.
