When the story came out and it looked like a political liability, Harris claimed that as Attorney General she was unaware of what lawyers from her office were arguing in court.
Also China is Bad. Also Donald Trump is Bad.
I knew when I hit "post" that whataboutisms would be your go-to reply. Thanks for not disappointing me.

Having lived in Iran for four years and lived through the overthrow of the Shah as a result of America's (and Britain's) interference in 1953, I'm very clear on that. However, none of that justifies China's shit.
Here: let's you go back to China next week, and criticize plainly President Xi online. I can do that here. Can you do that there? I can convert to Islam and not be thrown into a camp. You feel comfy-cozy doing that there?
No, you haven't answered my points, you've only used them to launch your rehularly-scheduled complaint against America's own flaws. They are admittedly extant. But you have not addressed my points.
Also noted is your subtle but present personal attack, that anyone who disagrees with you has been programmed, when you don't even know my history or what I've lived through.
But hey, you do you. I hope they're paying you, but even so they're getting ripped off, because your arguments are that weak.
What I said about my personal experiences in China is true.
What I said about Kamala Harris is true.
What I said about the US supporting Pinochet is true.
You've added a lot of other stuff so you can have a fight.
Also, China is bad. Also, Trump is bad.
