Isn't TikTok a Chinese app? Don't they have modern day concentration camps?

Yes, yes they do. Camps that they put Muslims they’ve rounded up into, intending to work them to death. And who can forget about the North Korean concentration camps, which China is happy to endorse for their little brother country
China’s government is a cancer on civilization, the modern world, and every idea birthed by the enlightenment

What does that have to do with the video? Does that make the US government any less evil?

So fucking what? "We" (i.e. the ruling class) are not the Nazis therefore "we're" given a free pass?
This shouldn't be about deciding whether "USA good" or "USA bad." What matters is studying history, understanding how imperialism arises (be it in Guatemala on behalf of the United Fruit Company or by the Chinese right now in East Africa) and realising that the material and cultural devastation that is consuming the whole world is in no-one's interests but the global capitalist classes', and that includes the millionaires in the Chinese Communist Party.

Though you're right, its whats called in debating circles as "whataboutism", where instead of answering the accusations directly you say, "Well what about China?". While in reality China's behavior, and the hypocrisy of the woman making this using tik tok, have nothing to do with how America has conducted itself in the affairs of foreign governments.
