The only lie I can think of in that regard would be someone claiming the Chinese can't actually copy, renane and resell "Red Hat" Linux as "Red Flag", all for free. Fortunately I don't see anyone claiming that, do you?

You stated (and I quote):
it's a full commercial product the Chinese get to copy, rename, resell,etc, all for free,...
No one can copy the Red Hat full product for free, no matter how much you wish it so. They can take the same GPL'ed code from the net (just like RH does), and compile a similar distro that RH does to perform the same tasks, but it's not the RH product.
