    International sentiment generally negative about country actively committing genocide.

    More at 11.

    Jokes aside - yeah? Of course there’s propaganda about China. I would wager its hard to find a big international power that doesn’t have some level of propaganda being spread about it by the other big international powers. But between the propaganda you still find a bunch of real reasons to have negative views toward China’s leadership and actions.

    • Uyghur genocide (ongoing)
    • authoritarian rule with huge censorship of outside media I really don’t need to go on

      Can we add bellicose relations with a lot of their neighbors over the expansionist goals they’re pushing?

          Got to wonder if you’d be this lenient with someone denying the holocaust, too?

          Barely even a slap on the wrist (“no-go”? Seriously?), not even removed the blatant genocide denial.

          So is it that you don’t think any genocide denial is really that big a deal and not even worth removing, or is just the deniers of the genocide being perpetrated by the state you ignorantly support, that you’re happy to turn a blind eye to and continue platforming?

          At least have some fucking integrity and don’t pretend to care when you clearly don’t, but this reaction? Is genuinely pathetic.

          Fuck, I really wish you tankie bootlickers would stop falsely claiming communism and defending genocide and other atrocities committed in its name by authoritarian dictators (also falsely claiming it, to gain the support of wilfully ignorant enablers like yourself), you’re really are fucking it up for those of us who actually want to be free.

            you’re posting from kbin–the comment isn’t removed for you because you aren’t on our site and kbin is dogshit for propagating removals.

              Fair enough, my bad on that, but you’re still allowing them a platform when they’re clearly spreading pro genocide-committing CCP propaganda.

              If this was an article whining that Anti-American Rhetoric Is Off the Charts in Chinese Media, and op was in the comments defending the war in Afghanistan, or immigrant children in cages and women forcibly sterilised, I don’t doubt it would have been removed in a flash, and rightfully so. China and America are both oppressive and destructive capitalist superpowers smearing each other to keep us distracted from the handful in each country hoarding all of the resources. The existence of competing propaganda really isn’t news.

              Bottom line is by not banning op or at least removing this post you’re still enabling and even showing support to a literal genocide denier, they’re not even trying to hide it. You can’t tout yourselves as a platform for socialism and equality while allowing people like OP the space to promote the exact opposite.
