And that is why this shit gets removed from lemmyml.

Not because it’s a secret, but because they’re sick and tired of debunking tiny man flat earthers.

Walter Lippmann and Edward Bernays (and Herman & Chomsky) literally wrote the books on it.

And where did you learn that in China you’ll be visited by the cops?

You learned if from the very same Western cold war propaganda machine we’re talking about. And you accepted it as fact without a thought.

Your satire is going to go over most of these people’s heads.

They also think it is the Chinese who are “brainwashed” NPCs, whilst they swim in propaganda and question nothing.

People not only don't know what's happening to them, they don't even know that they don't know. — Noam Chomsky

That’s the thing, though: The Tiananmen riots are not a secret in China, and they are taught, while you have been mistaught by Western propaganda that they’re a secret in China. So this meme is ignorant nonsense that perpetuates the propaganda for free.

Why watch the video when one photo and a lifetime of anticommunist propaganda tells me everything I need to know? 😐

Where are you getting this idea? Only about 10% have dual-citizenship. Who’s going to absorb the other 90%? And most probably aren't wealthy enough to simply pick up their lives and leave.

If it’s a pejorative term, then you’re not building the justification for its usage that you think you are.

Your views seem to coincide with Russian propaganda.

You know who else was a vegetarian? Hitler.

Views stand of their own merits irrespective of such coincidences.

Please enlighten us, vagueposter, what does it explain?

Show me one single example of it, then. You can’t, because they don’t.

He’s not related to Hexbear. In fact he’s banned from it.

It’s not, and literally no one on those instances thinks that it is.

Literally no one thinks post-1991 Russia is communist. Show me a single example.

• For Antifa, No Platform for Fascism To prevent ‘Alt-Right’ ideas from being taken seriously, the anti-fascist argument is that you don’t even let them start to have a platform in society.

  I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

  And the dude next to me says, "hey i'm not doing anything, i'm a paying customer." and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, "out. now." and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed

  Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, "you didn't see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them."

  "you have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and it's always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you don't want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.

  And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And it's too late because they're entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.

  And i was like, 'oh damn.' and he said "yeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments because their end goal is to be terrible, awful people."

  And then he went back to ignoring me. But I haven't forgotten that at all.

Real “the enemy of my enemy is my hero” energy from the Morning Joe crowd. Fauci has been terrible, but mostly for different reasons from why Republicans say he’s been terrible.

Corporate media are owned by the oligarchs for whom fascism serves. Fascism is a false revolution that keeps the capitalist class in power.

Michael Parenti, Backshirts and Reds:

Divested of its ideological and organizational paraphernalia, fascism is nothing more than a final solution to the class struggle, the totalistic submergence and exploitation of democratic forces for the benefit and profit of higher financial circles.

Yeah… I don’t think you’re the expert on China censorship you present yourself as.

I think you just regurgitated every piece of Cold War propaganda & every rumor about Chinese censorship that you’ve ever heard.

This is the crux of it. People are so used to getting away with “bravely” parroting Western Cold War propaganda that even the mildest push-back is experienced as a massive affront.
