100%. Its about identifying with "the team", and declaring your allegience to the US system, not about substantive democracy.
Don't care, go back to your anti-communist safe spaces where they let you whine about the tankies / commies or whatever term you liberal witch-hunters are using.
Gotta love the liberals coming over here to whine about the "tankies".
Not happening. Go ahead and post your "victims of communism" source tho.
to manipulate Tibet or persecute Uygurs
The people selling this false narrative are white supremacists, not the Tibetan or Uyghur people.
I'm a Klansman because I lean to supporting Taiwan's independence?
Taiwan is pretty much if the US confederates lost the civil war, then escaped to Cuba, killed all the people there, and set up a state. Read about what mass killings the Kuomintang did to the indigenous peoples of Taiwan when they escaped there.
It raises hackles any time someone unironically uses the term "authoritarian", because its always used to demonize the non-white countries, and especially those that were successful in opposing the US imperialist project, which has killed more innocent people than any other empire in world history.
The PRC has not been in a war since its minor skirmish with Vietnam back in the 70s. It's also lifted more people out of poverty in the last few decades than any other country in history. By contrast the US has killed hundreds of millions of people, attacked our coup'd nearly every country, and its people are increasingly living in poverty and homelessness.
Secondly yes, the PRC is socialist, read this or any of the other texts ppl below have made.
Why not address the Uyghurs or censorship?
And when we do this, as we have and continue to do, you'll still label it as whataboutism.
Nah, let the stormfront / kiwifarms people distribute lists of targets / witches they feel need burning.
That's not our role as communists. In the words of Omar Mukhtar - "They are not our teachers"
This thread is a testament to the years of china bad slop that white supremacist liberals have been eating.
Major props to all the patient comrades below trying to educate these stubborn klansmen.
