The political stance differs depends on various factors - age, social status, education, etc.

Someone's grandparents who suffered through Communism in China during the mid 20th century and then moved to America in the 70-80s would be very anti-China. On the other hand, another person's grandparents who are of similar age but moved to America in the last decade would've experienced the explosive economic growth in China that started in the 90s so they would think more fondly of it.

If they know English, they'll naturally gravitate towards American news sources which are obviously pro-America. The ones who aren't fluent will stay in the Chinese social media ecosystem, where they'll interact more with mainland Chinese citizens.
