Cubans are not faring better because there are sactions that prohibit them from gaining access to basic international services, many of which are free.

The wealth and power of the CCP is directly tied to the success of Chinese business internationally (much like the Cuban Communist regime). Their is no private enterprise in China; the CCP quite literally owns all means of production in China.

I’ll politely refuse your invited to support the CCP (oppressors of the Chinese people) by proxy so as to not upset the people of China - you see how your logic is circular here...?
