Is just such a shock from being in China. Just got harassed and essentially threatened for being a socialist. They searched my bags and commented on my China flag and my little red books and my copy of Blackshirts and Reds. Fucking police state. The security in China is strict, but they don’t give a fuck about your thoughts, whereas this guy was very aggressive about “consequences” for being a socialist.

There are tons of anti-CPC arguments one can make, especially by looking at past mistakes and ignoring the subsequent work that has gone into rectifying those mistakes. Heck there are various one issue movements in China that push back against some of what the CPC does.

But, seeing as HK protestors cling onto Pooh memes: it's 100% obvious that it's a foreign op.

But actually arguing against CPC policy requires knowledge of that policy, westerners have none beyond "Evil! Bad! Muh Freezepeach!"
