That’s the absolute truth.
and a surprisingly bitter pill for so many to swallow; it tells you instantly who has been chugging the propaganda kool-aid and they get smug about it when you try to point it out to them.
True.
Genuinely asking, why are there a lot of “China good US bad” posts on lemmy? Like is it Chinese citizens posting this, pro-communist westerners? Bots?
I ask because when I see pro-capitalist posts elsewhere I assume they are bots or Americans that watch too much Fox News.
China gives us hope that multipolarity is coming and that our countries can also develop and lift millions out of poverty
It’s just communism isn’t vilified around us like it.was, still is, around you your whole life
but…isnt china bad?
No, it’s not perfect, but it’s as good as it gets
Better than, say, Norway? By what metrics?

Never ask what Norway is doing to Amazonian people
The ROC had its white terror moments.
Unlike this picture, real life contains many shades of grey. There are some areas that could be improved but in other areas they excel about any other nation. It’s not black and white.
Life doesn’t have to be about identity and this picture screams “my identity is a tankie”, which is cool but just means it’s shit bias. Equally, saying a generic “China bad” screams that someone doesn’t alot about its politics

China isn’t committing a genocide. If it were we’d have SOME proof, as there’s so much proof of Gaza even though Israel is a surveillance state that severely represses the Palestinian people.
Your views on China and Chinese people are shaped by the US propaganda machine, rather than evidence.
I know you mean well but most of us started believing the same bs you do, there’s criticism of China within our spaces but it contends with reality rather than the propaganda you’re repeating.
Yeah, we always have proof of every genocide happening, because nobody would try to keep it secret
Sarcasm is not an argument, and we do have evidence for every genocide in modern history, because it’s impossible to hide one.
“Of course there’s no evidence of the genocide, it’s being kept secret! Not so secret that I, as a random westerner, don’t know for sure that it’s happening though”
You missed my point. How come there’s not a single piece of evidence? Not one victim we know for sure? No video, photographs, nothing?
Three hundred million tourists, not a typo, passed through Xinjiang last year. Not a single tiktok of anything amiss.

The UN, OIC and everyone not directly funded by the US state department would disagree.
essentially free markets, but with strict government oversight
I think you should learn what free market means. Also simply not true, while private capital exists every strategic sector (the commanding heights) is publicly owned (land, energy, transport, finance).

For what? Bursting your little sinophobic fantasy bubble?
“Genocide denial” isn’t a magic spell. Do you not deny the genocide of white South Africans?
Also, do you think we haven’t gone over the Wikipedia entry with a fine-toothed comb already?
The US tried to foment division in China by funding and organizing Salafi terrorist into Xinjiang, and once its efforts failed, it made lemonade out of its lemon by concocting and promoting a genocide narrative.
The only countries pushing this narrative are the “always the same map” imperial core countries, which just so happen to be largely the same ones supporting Israel’s genocide.
Almost no predominantly-Muslim country buys the Uyghur genocide narrative, because they know it’s bullshit, because they talked to the Uyghurs themselves.

Genocide is more than just killing, it’s the deliberate destruction of a people including its culture and institutions.
(a) Show me the Uyghur bodies
(b) Show me the serious bodily or mental harm
(c) Show me the conditions calculated to bring about physical destruction in whole or in part
(d) Show me the measures intended to prevent births within the group
In accordance with China’s affirmative action policies towards ethnic minorities, all non-Han ethnic groups were subject to different laws and were usually allowed to have two children in urban areas, and three or four in rural areas.
(e) Show me the forcible transfer of children from one group to another group
violent incidents in East Turkestan
I wonder where those Salafi terrorists came from? Oh right: the US, UK, and Israel organized, funded, and trained them, as they did Al Qaeda and the various flavors of ISIS/ISIL, including the “moderate rebels” that just took over Syria.
