No

Also, why are you saying “photos” of tanks? Did you actually not even know it was a video? Why chime in in the first place if you’re this ignorant about the topic? Why are your opinions so strong if you don’t know anything?

Also

we know this as a minimum.

No you fucking don’t, you illiterate, you believe that because the US government told you so.

This isn’t just a jab at China though

Liar

Kent state had far less casualties

Incapable of admitting that America is worse, even in your "I criticize everyone, mannn comment you have to defend them as a lesser evil vs China.

Fuck off, everyone here has seen brainwashed folks like you dozens of times.

A video of a guy standing in front of a line of tanks in which they stop, let the guy climb up to the entrance hatch and then he chats with the tank driver for a bit before leaving is your proof that actually China is as bad as American propaganda suggests?

Have you actually watched the video in question or are you just basing your statement on what the cultural milieu that American propaganda produced led you to believe happened in that video?

Also, why are you saying “photos” of tanks? Did you actually not even know it was a video? Why chime in in the first place if you’re this ignorant about the topic? Why are your opinions so strong if you don’t know anything?

Nah, you’re just brainwashed

Ever since I was a kid. When I was very young I probably would have said because they tell better more (I wouldn’t have used this word, but it’s what I would have mean) focused stories than western RPGs.

Now I think I can be honest and say that a lot of it is nostalgia. I still have trouble replaying some of the ones I grew up on, I’ve gotten to a point where I need to be making choices in games that don’t have realtime elements at least so “select attack until the boss, then Fire 2 until out of MP, heal as needed” is kinda boring. A lot of games have been experimenting with this lately though (Octopath Traveler, Sea of Stars, Star Renegades [technically a roguelike]) which is nice to see.

Strategy jrpgs where you move around little dudes on a map hold up better I think.

The delusions of grandeur required to think your glorified auto complete is going to turn into a robot god is unreal. Just wish they’d quit boiling the planet.

Jewish Voice for Peace

They seem pretty content with their healthcare. They’re genuinely appalled to hear about the state of healthcare in the US

Certainly not this guy.

Per wikipedia (I know, but I don’t think this kind of data is political enough to be subject to the NATOpedia treatment, it’s originally from the census bureau), the median income for workers in the US in 2023 was 40,480 USD. That’s 3373.33.

It’s a great social media app. The person to person cultural exchange is very nice.

Maybe in addition to teaching Americans to respect and admire China and the Chinese people, this cultural exchange will also help to innoculate more liberal Chinese netizens against the late Soviet “communism in wonderland” style idea that you can trade in communism for capitalism and it’ll be all upside.

I’ve seen a lot of nostalgic pro-Soviet content, but in a thread on the app where someone asked how they felt about the Soviet Union, there was a lot of sentiment being expressed that indicated that they’re still pretty sore towards the Soviet Union about the Sino-Soviet split.

I even saw people suggesting that in its post-Stalin state it was better for the Soviet Union to fall.

If I’m being honest, I was pretty shocked, but I held my tongue because it doesn’t feel like it’s my place to criticize.

Edit: to be clear, my experience on the app has been overwhelmingly positive, and I love seeing the cultural exchange, because it has me very hopeful that one of the most important pieces of propaganda that the American ruling class has inculcated in its working class (China bad) will be broken.

On the one hand, I’d also love to “identify and target” Wikipedia editors, but I’m guessing they’re not talking about the people who make sure that the article on the 2019 Bolivian Coup remains titled 2019 Bolivian political crisis.

Hell yeah, the first three were pretty good.
