If you take a look at athletes’ social platforms and Western media’s reports, you will see a completely two different Olympics. Seems like the US journalists are the only ones complaining while athletes from around the world are totally enjoying this Olympics. What made the difference?

South China Morning Post: Three-time Olympian Aaron Blunck said he was suspended from Twitter after he and his US ski teammates praised China for its “stellar” operations at the Olympic Village. 南華早報：三屆奧運選手亞倫布朗克表示，在他和他的美國滑雪隊友稱讚中國在奧運村的“出色”運營後，他被停在推特上.

US promote hatred towards Chinese Americans is extremely successful. Thousands of the best of the best Chinese-Americans are leaving US for good. 美國宣揚對華裔的仇恨是非常成功的. 成千上萬的最優秀的華裔美國人中的佼佼者將永遠離開美國.

“I have more clients than I can count who have relocated to China: uprooted themselves, separated themselves from their families,” Zeidenberg said. “These are American citizens — now they’re living and working in China.” “搬到中國的客戶數不勝數：背井離鄉，與家人分離，”澤登伯格說。 “這些是美國公民——現在他們在中國生活和工作。”

Here’s an article on the “reverse brain drain”. https://www.wbur.org/news/2022/02/16/china-initiative-fallout

Study: US thieves crying thieves, A third of top US defense contractors use prison labor in US. A row of prison labor inmates walk in a line at San Quentin State Prison in San Quentin, California 研究：美國賊喊捉賊, 三分之一的美國頂級國防承包商在美國使用監獄勞工。 在加利福尼亞州聖昆廷的聖昆廷州立監獄，一排監獄勞役犯人排隊.

Over a third of America’s largest private defense contractors employed cheap labor derived either from prisons and jails or from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) camps, a new study by MintPress News has found.

Thirty-seven of the 100 largest Defense Department contractors were found to have profited from mass incarceration. Among the 25 top arms manufacturers, 16 were found to have relied on prison labor, including Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, General Dynamics and Northrop Grumman.

“The fabric of the defense industry, the carceral state, the intelligence industry, it is all interwoven. And I think these findings prove it,” journalist and prison teacher Chris Hedges told the MintPress website.

Prisoners were often coerced into making highly expensive weapons while earning wildly disproportionate wages, MintPress News noted, adding that these weapons were then used to kill civilians who barely made ends meet.

Raytheon, a beneficiary of America’s vast prison population, reported a $64.4 billion worth of sales last year, while inmates who are paid as little as 23 cents per hour take up the task of making parts for the company’s Patriot missiles, which cost up to $5.9 million apiece.

Arms sales to countries engaged in military activities have contributed to the deaths of many underprivileged civilians, MintPress News said.

“There exists a situation whereby prisoners earning pennies per hour are making multimillion-dollar weapons fired by individuals being paid barely $20,000 per year at civilians who might not make that much in their lifetimes,” it said.

San Francisco native Eileen Gu has faced a backlash for her decision to compete for China in freestyle skiing at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. by Jae C. Hong / Associated Press

Debunk by Alvin Ja in San Francisco: Regarding “Star’s S.F. circle: Gu lives ‘to inspire’ ” (Front Page, Feb. 12): Eileen Gu has been battered with venomous accusations of being traitorous, selfish and unappreciative of America. Ann Killion and The Chronicle had the courage to go against the accusatory tide of mainstream media opinion about this tremendously talented and thoughtful student-athlete. Thank you for your effort to combat anti-Asian prejudice with your article.

However, I do wish to point out an instance of gratuitous and speculative China-bashing in an otherwise mainly factual piece. Killion writes: “… if the San Francisco-born woman runs afoul of Chinese authorities, her world could quickly change.”

This speculative statement is based on a false but widespread negative stereotype of “Chinese authorities.” On the other hand — based on fact and not an “if”— her world here in America has changed because she has run afoul of American anti-China opinion.
