No wonder you don't object to Michael Moore's bending the facts in the interest of portraying a Higher Truth. One can object to the demonization of China - with all the ancient anti-communist rhetoric joined to even more ancient Yellow Peril rhetoric - without "defending" China's labor policies. And you can also object to the excessive attention paid to the overseas threat at the expense of attention paid to homegrown problems.
