I mean, our own government is doing this to us. And I'm not sure China doing it as well would be anything new either. Most people, by now, understand that their government is lying to them and means them harm. So it's no surprise when foreign governments act the same way.
Oddly enough if you spoke to the actual decent human beings that inhabit most countries, they don't have any desire to hurt others.
Humanity has proven that it's incapable of governing itself. We need the King of Kings to return.
