This entire article is nothing but speculation on why certain actions might have been taken or what other horrible actions the Chinese may take. Having lived and worked in China for a while, I am disgusted at the portrayal of them here, speaking of them like they have Joseph Goebbels at the helm of their propaganda-fueled regime. This is so far from the truth it's ridiculous. If you watch the news in China, it looks identical to the news in the US. It's even more annoying because of its clickbait headline, which makes you think they'll be censoring certain photos taken there or something nefarious like that. Spoiler alert: It's not. There's a park that will be closed across the street from the meeting, and the author doesn't even know if that is at the request of the Chinese or not... but it must be, because the Chinese are evil. Also, alluding to the idea that the Chinese people who try to see Xi Jinping and cheer for him might be forced to do so? It's disgusting and preposterous that anyone with no proof of such things would make that assumption. I could go on but frankly this low-effort mudslinging article is not worth the effort.
