    Sure you can ally yourself with the CCP and that might be totally legal (if they collect any personal data and send it overseas to China then that would be breaking the law but it’s unlikely) but that doesn’t mean it isn’t frowned upon.

      That’s a stretch, but even assuming it’s true, why do you care enough about their community to frown upon it?

        I have opinions on a lot of things that don’t effect me at all. Palestinian genocide, Uighurs in sweatshops, child labor laws in other states, homeless people being harassed, the socioeconomic shift of Hong Kong losing independent legal rights.

        I can respect their freedom to ally themselves to people who wish them direct harm, but I also have the freedom to express my disappointment in them.
