I'm Chinese and I have a lot to say about articles like this.

"We hate China. X loves / helps / do business with China. So we should hate X too. Unless X become one of us to hate China together."

This is the common logic used in articles like this, where X is Apple in this case.

I don't see other use of these articles than spreading and deteriorating Chinese hate. Yes, just one or two articles may not be a problem, but we have seen these like forever now.

This is the psychological warfare the US government doing to its own citizen, and to all the world, spreading Chinese hate. This FUD movement has even turned in to business for US military, and political campaigns.

As a Chinese, I really want it to stop. I don't want the younger generation around the world grow up hating Chinese people. I don't want everyone treat me like an enemy.

But I'm so helpless. China, is so helpless.

Even without the Xinjiang issue. Even if China has a fully westernized democratic system, the US would still make up something for you to hate us. It's what this country does everytime some other country threatens its global hegemony, no matter what ideology or political system they have.

Yes, I know I sounds like a wumao now. I'm also surprised I would say something like a wumao someday.

So let me make it clear, I don't want to defend the allegation to the Chinese goverment. If there's unjust crime being made to Uyghurs in Xinjiang, I want it to stop, I would condemn those who responsible and want them to be punished by law. I want the government to implement supervision protocol to prevent anything like that to happen again.

But for programs that is helping the Uyghurs family to get employed, improve their working skill and living condition, without compromising their existing living standard, I would also praise the effort and want it to continue. If there's anything I can help to improve living conditions in areas like Xinjiang, either be donation or a chance to become a volunteer or a teacher, I would do it to help those people.

I don't know why I haven't hear a single westerner to say something like this. Shouldn't real justice to be punishing the bad and supporting the good? China like any other goverment, is not all good or all evil. But isn't the right thing always to help the people? Why not donate education resource to poor area like Xinjiang? Why not participate and help on the ground when you can? Because going into China would compromise your passport? your mind? or your pride?

It's the same logic people use to justify their "get out of China" actions. Because being inside China would force you to follow rules and laws you don't support, therefore it compromise your value, therefore you should get out of China.

I found these statement so selfish and condescending, almost like an excuse for their hate. Whether you compromised your value is your own problem. Nobody concern your own being as good or evil, it's your contribution to others lives that matters when we judge.

I like Apple. Most Chinese users like Apple. It makes people's life better, easier, and more enjoyable. That's absolutely a good thing that Apple did. With or without Apple, Chinese goverment already had access to all its people's data. Apple didn't made that worse with its participation.

Even if Apple compromised their value by following the Chinese rules, the benefits its products provided is still a good thing to Chinese people's lives.

You think it's bad not because Apple compromised its own value, but because Apple compromised YOUR value -- YOUR hatred toward China.

Did you see the evil cycle here? The more you hate China, the more evil someone's action would look like when they do business in China, and that makes you hate China even more. And all that facilitating this cycle is the US media outlets influenced by their Chinese FUD campagin.

I know I'm so helpless on this problem, but I want to wake up one or two people reading this as much as I can. Please stop the Chinese hate!
