Whataboutism. Nobody said America and China can't both be bad.

Not even whatabouting, this does suck, its generally not good to arrest journalists and if you're going to you should have good communication and evidence, cause otherwise it looks bad no matter how legitimate it may potentially be, its just damaging to your credibility and easy to take advantage of by bad faith actors like the western press

Seein this made me think of Leonard, he's been in there for 40 years, I think of him whenever I hear a news story like this

"That sucks" was clearly sarcastic/downplaying it as no big deal in your original comment.
