Did you do a marijuana before making this?

You’re fascist trash.

Stay in Russia and fuck off.

These ones suck too. Close enough 😬

Does eastern and central Europe post WW2 not exist to you or something?

It’s incredible that you could frame a literal imperial invasion of Ukraine by Russia as everyone else being imperialist. It’s just completely ignorant and has all the energy and logic of a trump decree.

Russia and the Soviet Union has a very long history of imperialism and colonization and, if that sort of thing bothers you, you should be critical of Russia.

Apparently thinking isn’t something you’re ready for.

Tell me you’ve never been to china without telling me you’ve never been to china.

Maybe the US needs to take a play out of China’s book - require >50% ownership stake of any Chinese company doing business in the US and allow American companies to just take that technology and roll with it.

There’s the obvious language barrier, but just because something is not from the west does not mean it’s accurate.

I lived in Hong Kong for 3 years, Malaysia for 1, and live in a former Soviet country, so I am no stranger to non-western options.

I hope you give non-western media the same critical analysis that you do western media.

I’m not okay with suppression of information though. How would I even interact with Iranian citizens given that the government has blocked internet access?

Media isn’t blocked in western countries like it is in authoritarian dictatorships like china, Russia, Iran, north Korea, Cuba, etc…

Lack of popularity does not equal censorship and that’s a huge distinction. If I wanted to, I could read NK news.

So the state should choose what people can read and say?

Why on earth would you want that?

I really don’t get the tankie obsession with dictators and authoritarian rule. It seems so contrary to socialist ethos.

I wasn’t thinking about the Chinese internet firewall at the moment, but you bring up a good point - that’s a bad thing. What’s the alternative, internet freedom where china can’t police the media and public discourse?

Sucks how the west makes china censor it’s citizens.

You’re the one who keeps dick measuring countries. I call out specific bad actions, regardless of who commits them.

It’s okay though, the west made you post that message.

Got it. Everything is the west’s fault. Very nuanced.

You guys are so weird. Russia is awful for non-cis people and you’re all falling over yourselves simping for them.

Thank goodness you’re here (already suggested and upvoted) and McPixel

You’re fooling yourself if you think Lemmy/mbin content isn’t getting scraped and thrown into LLMs. There’s nothing stopping it and they’re not huge on consent.

A factual statement about civilian protestors being killed equals “fascist talking point” to you. You certainly have an interesting thought process. Maybe those people didn’t matter to you though.

This war is absolutely not justified and Israel and the US should face international condemnation and prosecution.

Fuck Israel, but you need to educate yourself. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Iran_massacres

Prior to that, there have been countless cases of abuse and murder of protestors and even just uncovered women.

Fuck the Islamic government of Iran too.

I get your frustration, but “helped a little” is a massive understatement for the contributions the US made for Ukraine immediately before and during the early phases of the war, when Biden was in office.

Trump is just awful by every measure though.

Love 😘
