  • I don't think you understand what the word "civilian" means

  • Yeah people here take things very personally even though no one supports the government much? I don't get it

  • Honestly it doesn't take any convincing to make Americans support atrocities. The US can just do them and Americans will invent justifications all on their own.

  • They do a lot to support global south countries like Nicaragua and Venezuela. Without Russia, these countries would be struggling even more than they already are. Might've even been couped by the US again.

    They're not communist by any means, but these days countries are united by their shared grievances against the West rather than ideological agreement. And really, that's the biggest hurdle preventing the development of socialism (western meddling I mean)

  • I gotcha. RIP to Chicago furries though

  • What goal is America striving for, 0% literacy? Lmao

  • I checked out the August 7th thread and yeah you're right. I wonder how they decide on who gets posting duty for the day

  • :0 what an interesting custom. I guess this thread isn't like that then

  • It's funny how much the scale for the Y axis on the homeownership chart has to change for the differences in China to be noticable

  • Probably? I dunno what the bear thread is but this is a weekly post where you can comment whatever

  • University of Washington sociology professor Alexes Harris said it was a vicious cycle. “If I could create a perfect system to maintain inequality, create inequality and sustain it over time, this is the system. The process perfectly labels, stigmatizes, financially burdens and imposes further legal consequences to poor people.”

    No kidding jfc this is capitalist innovation to the extreme. I wish all the people who care about gulags held the US to the same standards.

  • Here's the article.

    TL;DR China hacked the West (who, how, and why are left unclear) so we must coup them

  • Good reminder that the powers that be aren't all-knowing. They just have an army and can cheat the rules

  • The author thought the message sounded too ghoulish so they added the word "democratic" to soothe the brains of libs.

  • It's so unbelievable that a populace would support its government that westerners will invent conspiracy theories to explain it away.

    People here would seriously rather believe that all 1 billion+ Chinese people are brainwashed or paid actors than to believe that the Chinese government is good, actually.

  • Thank you!! 🙏

    This is just a glorified plot synopsis. It belongs on a fan wiki not a news site. I think the author came up with a headline first and scrambled together the article later.

  • Is "China Television" a specific channel or did the author mean to write Chinese Television? I'm too poor to read the article

    Edit: The article is talking about the Zero Tolerance docuseries made by CGTN. idk what's up with the headline, is it improper to use adjectives in titles?

  • That's a cycle? Looks to me like a boa constrictor that swallowed an elephant.

  • This is spot on. It's wild how easily prejudice gets normalized here, seems like all it takes is a few news cycles for large swathes of the population to advocate for genocide.
