I've gotten used to not using China, but instead CCP. Not only does it assuage the racism stupidity, but it allows you to make an argument against communism as well and really point out what the true enemy is here.

Trump card, people who defend the CCP you can accuse of genocide denying or some other form of genocide supporting since the CCP is on record killing millions of it's people. So if anything, you can argue you love the Chinese people and don't think they should be slaves and killed by it's cruel regime.
