    I feel like I have to repeat myself here, you can’t announce your countrywide spy network with pride year after year and expect not to be turned into a caricature. Every country has stereotypes, some true and others not. China’s biggest is spying and its second is disappearing dissidents. Other countries are less known for it, and I will reiterate, because they do not constantly announce it to a billion citizens.

      You’re right honestly on the whole stereotypes thing and I do think I just got up today in a more pessimistic mood and made these comments.
