Yeah it’s annoying when any criticism of Occupied China results in them talking about America

What the living fuck are you talking about 'occupied China'

that is the most brain broken anti-historic nonsense I've ever heard. The CPC is literally the result of decolonizing themselves. It was occupied until then. Not to be cliched but crack a fucking book holy shit

I am aware of the terrorists sitting back while Real China 🇹🇼 tried protecting the people from the Japanese then not having the strength afterwards

So you're literally a genocidal fascist or too stupid to bother reading the history you're claiming as the source of your righteousness.

My money is you're dumb af

Are you trying to deny that more Nationalist forces died during the 2nd Sino Japanese War than CCP forces and trying to call me dumb or are you just pro-Imperial Japan and trying to say they freed China?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

As a matter of fact I will take this opportunity to call you dumb because your red herring of 'who lost more troops against Japan' has literally no bearing on any point of contention thus far raised.

Drag noticed something after the election: All the non voters say it's not their fault, because Kamala is more to blame. They think blame is a limited resource. They think you can only blame either the DNC OR the voters, not both.

It's the same as with China. They think if America is bad, then China has to be good. If there's evidence of China being bad, the counterevidence is that America is worse.

Tankies think only one thing can be bad at a time. It's the same with genocide, too. We can't care about Ukraine and trans people and West Bank, because WhAt AbOuT gAzA.

The tankie mind only has room for one single bad thing in each subject. Only one bad genocide. Only one bad empire. Only one bad politician. They can't conceive of two things being bad at the same time. It does not compute. When they say they understand two things being bad, they're lying. They can only understand it in short term memory. They can't internalise it and apply it to long term memory. Fifteen seconds after they admit two things can be bad, they forget it. It's like clockwork. "America and China are both bad... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15... China can't be bad because America is bad! I'm not to blame for Trump's win because Kamala ran a weak campaign! Gaza is the only genocide that matters!"

When you have the same energy for the ongoing genocides of both the Native Americans and the Black descendants of slavery in America that you have for Ukraine or bearing water for Israel, apparently, that's the day I believe these four paragraphs of uninvestigated drivel isn't projection and cope

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15... and you've forgotten that two things can be bad again. Drag said genocide in West Bank is bad, so you assumed drag doesn't oppose genocide in Gaza and must support Israel. It's like clockwork.

Well given how Lemmy is mostly American ultra-leftwing it's weird when they talk about changing China when they can't even change their own neighbourhood, or even their own home.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Eh, Lemmy isn't that left wing. It's just normal left.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago

Depends on the instance, Lemmy ranges from liberal to Anarchist to Marxist. Most instances lean in one of those major directions, or at most 2.
