  • No journalists on the ground found any indication of a mass casualty event on Tiananmen Square

    ON Tiananmen Square. This is fascist-level wordplay. The same journalists found a massacre all around Tiananmen Square in the rest of Beijing.

    no evidence that Chinese tanks actually killed anyone on 6/4

    This is just a straight up lie. Lots of people were killed in Beijing. Just possibly not any within the tiny physical confines of Tiananmen Square itself.




  • Like China sucks, but they’re not wrong when they say the US is the most destabilising influence in world politics.

    Oh my god are we really doing this. It’s like an elephant took a shit, and a rhino took a shit, and the rhino says that the elephant shit is going to make a worse sandwich.

    Sure, you could technically argue that the rhino shit is 2% smaller, you’re still shoving a giant rhino shit sandwich in your mouth.

    And “stable/unstable” is not the best metric either. An authoritarian militaristic dictatorship is often more “stable” than a Democracy. You can force stability on a population by taking all their rights away. Doesn’t make it a good thing.




  • You’re the one supporting a fascist regime, this entire discussion started because you claimed that being anti USSR is someone being pro Nazi.

    The USSR was demonstrably more friendly to Hitler than the US, because it was fascist, ruled by a dictator, and had imperialist dreams of cutting up Europe with Hitler.

    The US sure is imperialist and fascist and bad, the USSR was the imperialist and fascist parts of the US, dialed up to 12.

    I cringe every time a tankie opens their mouth because every sentence is a nostalgia-fetishizing ultra-nationalism for Soviet fascist dictatorship.
