(This is more of a train of thought, and is not intended to roast or provoke a response)

When you consider who the aggressor is, and then consider that the aggressor has spent a century building the most enormous and sophisticated propaganda machine in human history, you can begin to see why, for someone born into that machine like you or me, who get virtually no real information about these Designated Enemy countries, someone supporting them might just look like someone supporting "the bad guys" for no understandable reason. Of course our media isn't going to show us any reason why anyone would support China, because they want us to support the Epstein Empire instead.

So for those of us who grew up in that bubble, supporting The Enemy is just made to look like some kind of insanity, like "oh these poor people just snapped out of hatred for capitalism, and now they support something even worse." Of course, in reality there is nothing worse than what our countries (i am assuming you're western here) are doing and have done. The standard liberal outlook on other countries is that we have good or at least understandable reasons to do the horrible things we do, but our exes, all those countries we've exploited and invaded? Don't talk to them, they're crazy. Don't even listen to anyone who likes them, they're crazy and liars and paid and we may be bad but everyone else is worse, trust me.

That's all well and good, but it raises the question: if you think the US is the aggressor, why do you believe their accusations against China?

Idk, I've been much more civil than you. Probably has to do with the fact my views on china aren't as rosy as the sinophiles here on lemmy. Usually goes something like this "Idk man, there's a lot of merit to the claim that there's aggressive censorship in China. I experienced it firsthand." And the response will be something like "You're a brainwashed western chauvinist."

But I also get it from the other side. Like when it comes to healthcare in China. People call me a liar when I tell them it was fast, cheap, and good.

So I guess I'm a liar to both sides of the china brain rot.
