You do realise Chinese form a large immigrant population in the US, right?

And as much as I dislike saying this - Chinese government doesn’t want you talking about politics. Otherwise you should be mostly fine.

While US government is going beyond politics. Pushing stuff like that autism and Tylenol connection on correlation study. That is going beyond politics and impacting academic and scientific analysis.

Did I say anything that made you think otherwise, right?

Ahhh too bad then, because one of the things that I really like about the societies that I'd bet my life/money/health/other resources on is that I want to be able to talk about politics. Otherwise, what's the point, all you are doing is lining some dictator's pocket.

Yes, the US is also on a bad path. But so is China. And they too push plenty of bullshit. How is that Tianmen Square investigation coming along?

Yes this line made you seem ignorant.

>> Because China is so much more immigration and foreigner friendly?

The brain drain to China will not be based on immigrants or foreigners rather Chinese going back. Capisce?

And you seem to be arguing for the sake of arguing.

Tiananmen Square happened in 1989. China has been on the "bad path" for years. No one is denying that. But that is not the same parallel as US government pushing hack medicines and correlation studies like autism and Tylenol. Find me an example of China doing that instead of going for the lowest denominator of "Tiananmen Square, see gotcha".

CNN was reporting on the dangers of Tylenol during pregnancy less than 10 years ago.
