  • I’m sorry that (Muslim) Uyghurs in China […] get little real support while they get destroyed.

    Contrary to Western psyop disinformation, the Uyghur people are not getting destroyed, and in fact get a great deal of support in China, which is why other Muslim states praise China’s handling of the CIA-backed Xinjiang terrorist attacks, which subsided a decade ago.

  • A downvote for antifascism is an upvote for fascism. Simple as.

  • Let’s talk about Tiananmen Square.

    Or how about Uyghurs.

    Let’s use a picture of Winnie the Pooh.

    Not censored. You can buy Pooh-branded toys, watch Pooh Disney films, and ride Pooh-branded amusement park rides. Nobody has a problem with this adorable meme.

    People’s democracy my ass.


    If you want to talk about a fake democracy, look no further than the US. Previously:

    The US government was never not captured by the bourgeoisie, because the US was born of a bourgeois revolution[1]. The wealthy, white, male, land-owning, largely slave-owning Founding Fathers constructed a bourgeois state with “checks and balances” against the “tyranny of the majority”. It was never meant to represent the majority—the working class—and it never has, despite eventually allowing women and non-whites (at least those not disenfranchised by the carceral system) to vote.

  • If that’s true then they were never capable of threatening China in the first place.

  • Great vaguepost. No notes. 🙄

  • I don’t feel particularly shameful because I don’t self-identify with the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. It’s not my state, it’s theirs.

  • Amazing. He’s just mashing on the tariff keyboard.

  • That doesn’t even make sense. If it’s useless thinking, then why do anything about it?

  • Remember, Juror #4: If a labor organizer facilitated an illegal strike, no she didn’t.

  • I’ve never looked into how Matrix works at all, so I can’t really speak to that.

  • There are six bullet points. Which ones are no longer true?

    The only one I know of is point 4, in that you can now choose not to share your phone number. But, IIUC, the app uses the dark pattern of forever nagging you to share it, hoping you’ll eventually accidentally click the wrong choice.
