Actress who plays herself in film portrays victim of violence but actual court verdict in case made no mention of husband abusing her.

    Yes but not exclusively. People who are willing to doubt a victim of domestic violence when it paints China as a baddie. Yet if she was “western,” they would be condemning the country without question.

      We’re doubting her because the domestic violence didn’t come up in the court verdict dumbass, not because it makes China look bad.

        It looks like domestic abuse is purposely ignored in China. You bringing this up now makes China look way worse. Congratulations!
