If you perceive the actions and policy of another nation to be very immoral, is it not a moral obligation to try and spread your own version of morality?

Of course, all morality is relative, and so I'm not arguing about whether Western vs. Eastern morality is "better" or "worse".

I do think mass internment camps, social points, and mass surveillance are horribly immoral - but that isn't "Eastern" morality, just the actions of the Chinese govt.
