    See, when China sells weapons to Ukraine it’s just business, but when China sells broadcasting equipment to Russia it’s clearly China bad and China sponsoring Russia’s war effort.

      Even if your point is right, which I don’t know and don’t care, why even try to make it ?

      What discussion are you furthering with that ?

      Why spend the effort ?

      I can actually argue both. Selling weapons to Russia, because they use them for a war of aggression, is amoral, selling weapons to Russia and Ukraine isn’t better as that’s plain war profiteering.

      (Theoretically) selling to Ukraine only, would only be slightly better (at least not supporting an aggressor also known to commit war crimes regularly) but still amoral profiteering from war.

      In short: It is not about China selling weapons or China in general, it’s about their position and reasons to do so.

      Lmao the hypocrisy in people downvoting this comment when they simultaneously complain every time a Chinese car or DJI camera ends up in Russia.

      If you weren’t going to complain about the US being the sole supplier of the materials needed for Japan’s invasion of China (and the ensuing massacres, mass rapes, etc.), shut the fuck up.
