    Does "the left" really support China though? Tankies, sure, but I've definitely not seen anything but broad condemnation of China from the mainstream "left". In fact, most of them seemed to be supportive of protestors in Hong Kong (whether or not it was astroturfed).

    Although my political views change over time and are never static, I currently consider myself left-leaning. I'm both anti-CCP and anti-Trump. I find it bizarre when people assume that being anti-CCP means you support Trump.. in fact, I see a lot more similarities between the CCP and the Trump regime.

    You did see all of Trump's anti-China rhetoric since even before running for President, right? Just want a sanity check here. Because he was doing it before it was 'cool.' A lot of rhino Republicans were still spouting the Libertarian nonsense about how increased trade equals increased Democracy. You'll notice a lot of those same "republicans" are awfully quiet now that it's obvious the money went to fuel the CCP's oppression machine.
