    The Chinese government claims LGBTQ+ people do not face discrimination in their country

    Where do they claim this? China is a socially conservative country, though they don’t obsess with LGBT people like conservatives in the US. I can’t imagine they’re assuring journalists they don’t get discriminated - it seems more in style for them to not talk about it at all.
