"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
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?
