Yeah, I've watched a few interviews with her and she hasn't really dwelt on her father's history when people have brought it up, nor has she brought it up unprompted. I'm sure she's got some brainworms, but she certainly doesn't strike me as an anti-China crusader.

Also, since literally no one is talking about her actual figure skating: please, check out her Olympic free skate^[I think that link will be geoblocked outside of the States, but I'm sure you can find it on YouTube from your local broadcaster]! Has to be the most joyful skating program I've ever seen; she seems to be someone who has genuinely found happiness in skating after rejecting the grueling training of her childhood, coming back to the sport on her own terms, and focusing on enjoying herself and expressing herself rather than on results (which I know sounds like corny athlete PR speak, but if you listen to her and watch her you'll see that it's from the heart). I think she's going to be an inspiration for people from within and without the figure skating world.
