“A favorite PRC tactic is to use the terms China, Chinese and Chinese Communist Party interchangeably. PRC has mixed them all up so often and for so long that a criticism of the CCP is now interpreted by China as a criticism of the people, and thus a racist act.”
A UBC professor recently told me that when his family members flew back to work in China after the Christmas holidays they had to get a PCR test to prove to border officials that they did not have COVID.
He was taken aback, because he follows multiple Canadian and international media sources. The reports he had seen had tended to sympathize with Chinese officials who claimed Western nations that instituted test requirements for incoming Chinese citizens were “discriminating”.
