I watched Mike Pence's speech today on China. It was a very harsh
speech, criticizing the entire list of CCP activities that the
West considers to be criminal -- jailing Uighurs, jailing priests,
destroying churches, IP theft, South China Sea crimes, and dozens more.
The speech is sure to catch the CCP's attention and infuriate them,
presumably because an American vassal dared to speak back to the
leaders of the Master Race.
Pence also called out American companies that are kowtowing to
China:
The image above is from days when Nike was laughably claiming that it
wasn't just a cheap, pathetic sellout.

- Nike ad in 2018, part of its laughable 'Social Justice
Leadership' program, showing Colin Kaepernick saying, 'Believe in
something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.
Just do it.'

Quote: "Some of the NBA's biggest players and owners, who
routinely exercise their freedom to criticize this country, lose
their voices when it comes to the freedom and rights of other
peoples.
In siding with the Chinese Communist Party and silencing free
speech, the NBA is acting like a wholly owned subsidiary of the
authoritarian regime. ...
Nike promotes itself as a so called 'social-justice champion,' but
when it comes to Hong Kong, it prefers checking its social
conscience at the door.
Nike stores in China actually removed their Houston Rockets
merchandise from their shelves to join the Chinese government in
protest against the Rockets general manager's seven-word tweet:
'Fight for Freedom, stand with Hong Kong.' "

wasn't just a cheap, pathetic sellout.
