Are you calling Chinese police similar to Nazis….? I’ve never had a bad interaction with one and they’re certainly not fascists
That's a fairly complex topic. The big take away is that the Chinese government isn't exactly loved by a lot of people.
It’s a joke. Look at the username.
Edit: saw the reply, doesn’t look like a joke now
It's fine if you don't know history.
lol bro do not start with that shit on a 5d account and a clearly biased comment history.
A clearly non-brainwashed post history against China? Yeah. Your post liberal comments when you aren’t being a jerk. Maybe try not to be too braindead
A lot of westerners, sure. The vast majority of Chinese would disagree since they’re 1-2 generations away from poverty. Depending on the city most grandparents have zero education, parent may have gone to middle school, then current gen has shot for the stars. Chinese government can be unfair, but no one can argue they didn’t make everyone’s lives materially better
Yes, I'm sure the Uyghurs and political dissidents agree wholeheartedly with you.
I think you need to look up the word material.
Yes, the Uyghurs currently being genocided are certainly materially better off.
Presumably you've never disagreed with the CCP in a public way.
Not to just play whataboutism but wearing masks to protests against a genociding nation just got banned in some states of the land of the free. Sadly, not being allowed to criticize is on the rise everywhere…
There are many ways of allowed criticism of the CCP. A certain degree of self censorship is applied no matter where one lives. But yes that is certainly one large negative of Chinese political rule!
Because you're just a white American troll who likes to pretend they're from the East.
Judging by our interaction on another thread where you tried to explain Chinese culture to an ethnically Chinese person.... And then accuse them of not being Chinese enough because they live in America........ I'm guessing you aren't exactly an expert.
Brave of you to delete all those after I called you out.
Kindly fuck off, Comrade.
Found the liberal who can't read history....
Edit: What's with so much toxicity. This should be left at reddit... You reply with history and get cursed at.
I just hate tankies.
