tbf the story so far sounds like she wasn’t and then china/CCP used leverage on her, eg. get secrets from him or we’ll kill your family

Also I duno why do looks come up every time guys fall in love with a non-super model, maybe guys like women for more than their looks?

There are plenty of hot people out there that are far from models. The obsession with some arbitrary standard of sexiness is both unfair and degrading to everyone held up to it (women, generally) and indicates a kinda sorta really fucked-up relationship with sexuality.

To be fair, anyone with a brain and knowledge of geopolitics knows that ANY chinese citizen is susceptible to being used, as are people in the US with family in China. They regularly threaten their families for talking trash or whatever, and pursue smear campaigns against expatriates that they feel wronged them, or refuse to cooperate on such things.

Not just China by any measure, Russia is big on that too. Just like that anti virus software company based out of st petersburg that got banned here, no reasonable learned person could think the government couldn't compromise it.
