“So the next time you hear a Western politician condemn China for silencing dissent, ask them about Hüseyin Doğru. Ask them about the BBC cutting ‘free Palestine’ from a BAFTA speech. Ask them about the pregnant woman body-slammed in Amsterdam and the demonstrators being brutalised in Berlin. Ask them about von der Leyen’s heckler being arrested after she joked that in Russia, he would be arrested. The West is everything they told you China was. The only difference is that the Empire has better public relations”
