There are 2 genocides actively occurring (or at least in the forefront).

Western media does not shy away from calling one a genocide (as they should), but refuses to call the other one a genocide.

Why are tankies so fucking stupid?

You can be a Marxist-Leninist and not support the cultural genocide of the Uyghurs.

Yep. A Tankie is someone who claims to be leftist but then defends all actions by governments and countries who claim to be leftist too.

And its just a coincidence that all of those are imperialist sources

When choosing between biased anti-Chinese sources from countries with a free press, or biased pro-Chinese sources from countries without a free press, I know which I'm going to choose.

You think western media is free? Lol

Well, it's paid for and has biases, but reporters don't get disappeared because they didn't tow a party line.

If you're too good of a journalist you get your car blown up with you in it.

You literally denied the genocide of Uyghur's...by saying it's imperial sources so it's false.

[–] FreudianCafe@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You are describing your own conclusions. What i said is that its a coincidence that all of them are imperialist sources, and in fact they are. But its good to know that just by pointing to this fact makes you associate it with being fake, at some level even you understand that

No shit, it's very well known that the CCP doesn't do correct info as anything that's going to make china look bad they wash with different info. They still will not say how many died from COVID and produced numbers that are so far below the global numbers that they're laughable...so yes it's imperial/Western News. Get over it.

Hey smart guy, the media lies to you too, no need to cuck for capitalists. Its impressive how people here bootlickers for their rulling classes

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lol thinking communism and authoritarian dictators are better than capitalism is hilarious.
