Its curious to see the Chinese government called out for being insufficiently dedicated to anti-corruption measures while doggedly insisting that the myriad prosecutions of corrupt officials within both the Chinese public and private sector are these horrible infringements on civil rights. We've got Chinese ex-pats who fled to the US and went right back to committing crimes as soon as they arrived. Billions of dollars defrauded from Americans because the US was intent on protecting known malicious actors that the Chinese government had planned to prosecute.

Like, Russia? Fine, sure. Whatever. That place has been a dumpster fire since at least Yeltsin. But at some point, western media isn't denouncing fraud. It is implicitly covering for these crooks under the "China Bad" banner head.
