did you add slay bangs to the wojak on the right? I like them

Browbeating people into voting for a satanic right wing warmonger was a losing strategy in 2016 and it’s a losing strategy now. There is a massive chance now that Biden will lose as a direct result of his actions in Gaza. This is directly Biden’s fault and no amount of fearmomgering about January 6th will change it, for the record most people don’t really even care.

If you’re concerned about losing “our democracy”, blame the DNC. That they’re content with running a senile maniac who is actively facilitating a genocide should enrage you more than people online expressing their disgust with his criminal behavior.

If you look into it, most of the indpendent experts are one right wing crank, Adrian Zenz, who is 100% funded by the UK State-Owned BBC and an American intelligence cutout organization called the NED. He’s a far-right Christian Zionist who doesn’t speak a word of Mandarin. You should be happy that there’s no genocide in Xinjiang (even Zenz has never claimed this), mad that your tax dollars likely went to fund his bogus cause, and furious that those same tax dollars are also being used to conduct a real genocide in Gaza.

If Gaza hasn’t shown you that Uyghur Genocide was a crackpot evangelical conspiracy theory cooked up in a Langley basement then nothing will

China is a force for good and Russia is the harm reduction candidate vs the US.

Deleting a twitter account with 189k followers is an economic decision you would only make if you were under some kind of contract or the following had no value.

I believe that democrats should at the very least oppose genocide (rather than encourage it) if they want to be considered different from the republicans.

All settlers are hostile enemy combatants. If a settler brings his child to a stolen home he is using that child as a human shield.

The NED is directly and openly an arm of the CIA, an organization which has contributed to and participated in the politically driven murders of human being numbering in 7 digits.

If you can’t find a source that doesn’t link back to them, the story is bullshit and you’re falling for American state-sponsored disinfo.

Xi’s presidency paired with the clear terminal decline state of Western countries have made liberalism in China a marginal position.

Chinese foreign policy has rarely deviated from moderate, trade-oriented and relatively apolitical over the past few decades. I think the massive allocation of US taxpayer funds toward negative coverage of China has swayed your opinion to the most hawkish extreme. None of these accusations really exist outside of the anglosphere and HK/Taiwan based Sinophone disinfo networks, however most of them are widely acknowledged as crimes that the US has committed in the very recent past in some capacity.

Important to understand that every instance of mugging, shoplifting etc combined is less than half of what’s stolen by employers via wage theft. In addition, wage theft is virtually never punished with prison time, unlike shoplifting or larceny.

Shirts are not people, not animals, not priceless relics, just commodities. Direct your ‘horror’ at an actual evil that affects your fellow humans rather than a minor loss of revenue from stolen property.

American foreign policy since the cuban revolution has openly and intentionally been aimed at depriving Cubans of food in the hopes that the people would revolt. It’s being denied the ability to trade with other sovereign nations at the barrel of a gun.

Assembly is fun because it makes you feel like a wizard, even if you’re bad and it’s not an efficient way to code. Everyone should try it once.

Really? That’s sad, my kitty loves the laser pointer. I need to get her one of those string toys to play with after now.

There’s no valid argument for Taiwan’s independence as a Chinese settler colony. As proof, the entire DPP argument depends on Chinese settlers pulling a Liz Warren and pretending to be native. It’s also totally incoherent to claim they’re a separate country but were also justified in looting billions of dollars worth of gold from “its” land, as if Beijing isn’t a thousand miles away from Taipei.

As for the civil war being easy, the KMT had the support of every US president, Stalin, and Hitler, which is just to say they had everyone’s support. The KMT flag would be over China right now if they had simply not tried to murder the communists in cold blood. I guess they did make things hard on themselves.

For context: the DPP is the pro-indpendence ultranationalist party founded by local landed elites who collaborated with the Japanese empire during wwii. To this day many Taiwanese ultranationalists around the DPP deny Japanese atrocities such as Nanjing and Unit 731. This may not be the most reliable source, three pinocchios!

Taiwan is currently a Chinese settler colonial regime that functions as an American military base and microchip factory. If they want sovereignty, they should give the land back to the natives they stole it from and return the billions of dollars worth of gold and artifacts they looted from the Qing coffers after they (catastrophically) lost the easiest civil war in history.

Liberals will justify every action we take there as helping Ukraine. Ukraine to them does not mean the prosperity, health, or even lives of the people who live there, nor does it mean the well being of the now thoroughly-poisoned ecosystem. Ukraine to them is synonymous only with a Western-friendly, nominally democratic government in Kyiv and its capacity to guarantee the immortal and unquestionable rights of the market through violence.

This is actually just enrichment for them. Kind of like a cat knows that they won’t catch a laser pointer if they chase it, they just want to exercise their natural hunting instinct.
