they may have pushed large parts of the Chinese-American community to the right.

That's just the Gusano effect, frankly. Why would someone who supports the ML regime move to China's self-nominated existential enemy, after all?

No, those who oppose just come over here and Yeonmi Park themselves all over the place. You see it in ever single "Castro took my grandfather's plantation" wannabe-settler who conveniently leaves out that el viejo's plantation was staffed by slaves; I expect exactly the same out of Chinese expatriate capitalists afraid they're next (when there's actually still hella billionaires that haven't been milled yet).

Capitalism will run your defenseless little commune over and salt the earth where it stood just to spite you. Ask me how I know: what did this dogmade country do to my people's leaders? Again, and again, and again, until the closest thing we have to earnest "civil rights leaders" anymore are sitting in prison under false government slander of being foreign-backed agents?

You want to talk about "deeply unserious" and don't even have a meterstick to measure how deep in the water you are, or floaties to keep from sinking-- you clearly can't swim.

I'm Black; what reason I have to think the country that murders my people not only in the streets, but sometimes in their own beds, is a good force on the world? It is a very easy calculus for me:

"ain't no Chinese, Cuban, or Russian that ever hard-r'd me. Plenty of Americans have. Ain't no Chinese, Cuban, or Russian that ever side-eyed me for just walking down the street. Plenty of white Americans have. Ain't no Chinese, Cuban, or Russian that ever held me at gunpoint unjustly, either. More than one sallow American pig has."

If that meterstick was good enough for Muhammad Ali in reference to Vietnam, it's good enough for me in reference to the people the white moderate claims should be my 'enemies'.

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

Even if your sources weren't biased western rags and people that can't speak a lick of Mandarin but can talk all the trash in the world about China in support of white settlerdom, at least China pays for the things they buy; rather than stealing it at gunpoint like the Americans, the French, any part of the countries that profited off the Transatlantic Slave Trade rly, other et cetera. While we wanna bullshit about 'debt trapping', since that's obviously what you're talking about, what's the IMF again?

Deeply unserious; and DEFINITELY not beating the "weakest link" allegations.
