Wrong. Often times the family is involved so they should be punished accordingly. If there is one thing these people value as much as money it’s their family so there would certainly discourage such behaviors. It’s also a racism garbage to say most Chinese are not loyal when they have one of the most trust worthy government in the world.
The Japanese political establishment is already compromised by America and America is the only one who has that much money to bribe and control. So it’s ridiculous to say Japanese are more loyal to their own country when they have and still are sacrificing their own interests for their master.
Even the typical American is much more willing to be shameless in selling their own country as well, importing and hiring cheap illegal and legal aliens to make a profit, lobbying government to destroy competition while screwing the consumer aka legalized bribery. Does the crime rate in America makes you think these people give a shit about their own country anymore than the Chinese and their’s?
What you're talking about is a perception issue. The Japanese perceive their allegiance with the US to be a good thing for them.
Chinese who know better than selling national secrets to adversary do so still when given a diamond studded carrot. The Japanese will not.
How many times have the public already been shown examples of traitors performing high treason? Just years ago there was an example of one who sold China's nuclear arsenal secrets to the US. How many westerners have betrayed their nations to that same degree? Not a single one I can think of. Not a single case in modern history. Rest is just wishful thinking and semantics. These asshats in China selling out their country in such a fashion only exist in China (among relatively wealthy and well to do nations that is). Talk to 10 Chinese people and you can easily find 3 where you would have suspicion they would do the same if ever given the opportunity. The hate some Chinese people have for China is mind boggling. These same 3 people you can usually sense have a sick level of internalised racism and self-hate + grandiosity for western everything.
The japanese (using that example) have a hell of a lot more pride in their nation and civilisation than Chinese have for China. Semantics and coping aside, this is truth. We can talk about nonsense how Japanese are mistreated by Americans but still love them etc. That's completely irrelevant to the point Im making.
