Listen, yes, I do see that I'm being unfair and dishonest. I tend to pop off without thinking

I actually think conservatives usually use the term "woke" correctly, though? Like, everything they call "woke" is typically good.

I will check out the book. I've been wrong about plenty of things before, so always willing to learn

Yes, I can have an opinion on socialism without having been a socialist-revolutionary. That is correct. Spot on.

Yes yes yes, China freed and liberated Tibet by taking it over. Of course. Nothing imperialist about that.

Just like the US has been liberating and freeing all those people in the middle east.

Okay, but in my defense, I am not very smart

I don't generally believe in supporting the US, since it is an emperialist, capitalist country.

Any sources that I provide will be dismissed as western propoganda.

Let's start with Tibet.

Why does AES always seems to end up with forced labor camps? I don't remember forced labor camps being a central part of socialist ideology...

A country can call itself socialist, that doesn't make it so.

I never said that I don't support communist countries. What I do not support are abuses of power by authoritarian leaders, even if they claim to be abusing their power in order to bring about a communist state.

Tankies accept most/all atrocities committed by so-called communist leaders with a "the ends justify the means" attitude that I do not share.

Sorry, I don't know what OP's posts were. OP can fuck themself in that case

Being anti-tankie does not make you anti-communist.

Apologies

Modern day China is both capitalist and emperialist and has a disregard for basic human rights. It is not in any way shape or form a communist state. Oh, and it actively tries to censor and erase the fact that it ran down its own citizens with tanks.

Words evolve and change in meaning. Calling someone a tankie in 2023 is not a comment on their opinions of an event that happened a lifetime ago.

A tankie is someone who blindly supports authoritarian regimes simply because they’re anti-west

You cannot acknowledge anything even slightly negative that China has ever done without being jumped all over

I have no removed comments, but go off on your little power trip 🙄

By “being slightly critical” they mean even slightly implying that China is not in every way a completely perfect utopian paradise incapable of doing wrong.
