Them having that kind of education since a kid is a fact.
No it isn’t. Prove it. Primary sources.
I understand your need to reframe my objections to racist caricatures in general as being a defense of someone you’re trying to demonize with your racism. But if you weren’t being racist to asian people generally when you say it’s acceptable to do minstrel show level racism to the right targets, you’re certainly being racist towards Chinese people in general right now when you’re using this stereotype of them being hive minded and easily brainwashed.
in China where they teach you to obey the rules of the CCP, thank the CCP and Xi for everything they provide, and basically view Xi as a god
Sounds like Christian fundamentalists talking about Arabs.
they told me to read the actual post instead of believing what I want, is this gaslighting?
Hi I’m full of shit and here’s proof
You accuse us of childish behavior as you fling unfounded accusations of lying at us without any kind of follow up or justification.
You know who does speak for billions of Chinese people though? The guy you’re making a racist caricature of.
Saying it’s just one person is a thin excuse when it’s a head of state
Let this man enjoy his yellow scare cartoons in peace god damn you all
Oh good, now we’re doing this.
You said that breaking peace treaties isn’t a valid justification for starting a war
This is after I already said you exhausted my patience with extremely stupid shit you said earlier
Why do you feel like your opinion is worth hearing if you spend zero time informing yourself to have one?
You mean the Revolution of Dignity??? That’s what you’re talking about here, right?
Oh shit I didn’t know they gave it a glorious sounding name. I guess fascists didn’t have anything to do with it and then immediately making a Nazi war criminal a national hero with a holiday on the first day of every year. Fuck I didn’t know you were going to post entire wikipedia articles with the name of the thing you googled to find it.
I guess when you overthrow the democratically elected leader of a country and then immediately start passing laws to marginalize his biggest voting bloc it’s fine as long as you call the coup something patriotic.
Yeah. Your arguments (i.e. using multiple question marks so as to mug to the audience) are pretty fucking shameful.
whether or not they broke a cease fire has no bearing on whether past or future invasions of their country are justified
Baby brain
It was leaning in the direction of the West
Are you just stupid, or are you deliberately lying right here? Yanukovych was couped precisely because he WASN’T leaning towards the west. Did he flee to Poland when your fascists were threatening his life?
launching missile strikes at civilians?

If you don’t want your civilians to be hit by rocket fire then you shouldn’t use them as human shields. And you shouldn’t support a regime that deliberately puts its own citizens in harms way to score propaganda points.
What I think is that it doesn’t matter in the context of an aggressive war against a country that was not threatening Russia.
Lol well that’s just a fucking lie. Zelenksy was openly threatening to host nuclear weapons for Nato on the eve of the invasion. Do you have a selective memory or are you just fucking ignorant of the entire history of this conflict and should therefore shut the fuck up?
Minsk I came about after the Russian military had invaded and annexed Ukrainian territory.
They didn’t invade; they were already there. The legitimate government of Ukraine leased the naval base to them in Crimea and when the western backed coup government wanted to revoke the lease they simply stayed. Accuse them of squatting.
The first of these two agreements is already taking place after the initial aggression and thus are not really factors in the question of whether Ukraine should defend itself from that aggression.
Well that’s just fucking stupid. Peace treaties don’t count if they came after a war?
Sorry you just lost my attention with that one
You just insulted me with the sole thrust being that I’m not in your echo chamber.
I’m referencing real world events. Do you not believe Ukraine broke both Minsk I and II as a lead up to the war? Do you not have google?
e: And what’s this weasel bullshit where you slipped in ‘Ukrainians’ like I’m going after the citizens and not the government? The Ukrainian people haven’t had a legitimate government since 2014 when the one they actually elected themselves was deposed in a far right western backed coup.
This would have the content of an actually valuable conversation if you could figure out how to ask questions without making their purpose to come off as incredulous and incurious as you are right now.
It’s literally in Mein Kampf. Lebensraum is explicitly intended to be a mirroring of the US doing westward expansion into land held by native tribes. In his writings he made the comparison all the time. It’s not a secret unless you had an American education.
They even had illustrated children’s books writing a new national mythos along the same lines as cowboys and indians. The United States is Nazi Germany 200 years after Hitler won the war.
Lol you did the vapid quip thing
How is the country that inspired Hitler’s entire ideology fascist? How is a state run by a communist party not fascist?
Wow really dealing with the reddit brain trust here, aren’t I?
To the degree that Korea isn’t free, it’s is because they’ve spent their entire existence at war with the largest and most powerful global empire in history and have been cut off from international trade.
The US isn’t free because it’s a fascist state. The Korean peninsula isn’t free also because the US is a fascist state.
Now let’s hear your next vapid quip that’s supposed to mean more than objective facts and inarguable history, redditor. I don’t want you to lose even a bit of steam acting like you’re the smartest person in the room while displaying no knowledge about anything.
More democratic than the US. The US has an electoral college system explicitly designed to make electing a president undemocratic. In Korea they vote for each equivalent of a cabinet position instead of letting the president just appoint all of them. https://www.ncnk.org/sites/default/files/DPRK constitution (2019).pdf
If this shocks you, remember that Americans are the most propagandized people in the history of the world
Use google you lazy motherfucker
The first two articles are not about a ban on Winnie the Pooh in China which was the subject of the original claim, so I’ll put a pin in that.
Your BBC link isn’t really a better source than RFA. Instead of a cutout it’s just state media. And what’s in that article is just a straight up lie.
You can talk to actual people in China. They can take photos with their cameras of the displays of licensed Disney products with Winnie the Pooh for sale. The idea that they banned Winnie the Pooh is cold war propaganda. And it can only be maintained in a bubble.
I don’t trust saving my CC numbers anywhere. And considering how many times retailers have been hacked and had that kind of information stolen I wish it were law that no one could save them.
