"My personal incredulity isn't enough for you? Well I also have unverified personal anecdotes!"
Uhuh. You're also getting schooled by an actual Chinese person elsewhere
No see his 6 months is worth more than my multiple decades because I accurately called him out on being a chauvinist, orientalist and fascist pig while pointing out the MANY issues with his "ideas" and that makes me "emotional".
Yeah, but he's Le Rational Westerner, he's different from the inferior foreigner.
He's carrying the white man's burden he just needs to reeducate all us untermensch about our real history that only he knows.
He just tried to argue that we should take his word on how evil China is because he went there and "learned from natives about what is really going on."
Of course that means that he must be believed, the actual "natives" themselves are all brainwashed savages
I am leaning hard on this being bait but also a lot of people across the western internet seem to genuinely believe a lot of what he says so I'm far from certain.
Agreed, I would believe it to be bait if it wasn't for the fact that I've heard similar shit in real life.
The abortion skyscraper was a new one alongside Starbucks for abortions but outside of that if you told a chat bot to act as a sinophobic debate bro he's hitting all the old classics of Mao's big spoon and so on.
Yep, but I've heard similar bullshit like the PLA having mandatory suicide helmets and whatnot, so at this point I'm not even surprised by it.
I feel sad for people like this honestly. Not knowing how bad it truly is for them since they have an imagined untermensch to punch down on.
That's how cultural hegemony is maintained in the imperial core, after all. Can't have a successful alternative or the whole thing crumbles.
It's an incredibly well executed bit if it is one, and the platonic ideal is Poes Law if it isn't
You think this angry, name calling, emotional person is schooling me? I'm a progressive on paper, the Bernie Sanders kind and they're calling me a Nazi. I'm shocked people would give this type of person a second of thought.
Feel free to ask them about Mao "accidentally" killing 30-50 million people with STARVATION in the name of their oh so beautiful system.
What about throwing musicians and professors in prison for speaking out against the overbearing government?
How about Tiananmen Square?
Does this person even know what these events are? The government actively covers it up to this day. The millennial generation doesn't even know what these are because it's forbidden.
Correct. Are you pro genocide like Bernie too?
No. That's why I usually say I'm a progressive on paper, but no modern politician represents that definition despite what they may call themselves. I like that Bernie would invest in the environment and tax the shit out corporations and billionaires though.
Progressive on paper, right wing weirdo in practice got it.
Anonymnity is a primary cause for the higher rate of insults in online comments compared to in-person interactions, driven by the "online disinhibition effect". This phenomenon, where users feel unchained from typical social standards, leads to increased toxicity, lack of accountability, and dehumanization of others.
Whatever eats at you, I hope improves. We're all in this life together.
I know this dude is banned so it's weird for me to comment but does anyone else find the lib tactic of insinuating emotional instability and mental unwellness in people to be ableist cliche at this point?
Fuck off back to reddit with this debatebro crap. I'm under no obligation to be nice to your racist ass. And why would I be? Multiple people have tried talking to you in good faith and got dismissed them out of hand. I'm not here to debate you, I'm here to tell you to fuck off.
So, a capitalist. And you're expecting communists to give you props for that?
Lol. I can see why you say you're only progressive on paper. In practice you're a standard western Cold War Warrior, repeating far right claims word for word. What argument are you even trying to make? None I suppose, just vomiting out talking points.
Yes, you racist fucking vermin.
Bullshit
Go back to reddit, you fucking nerd
