Comment on It really is like this
Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 hours agoIt’s clear you’ve been extensively propagandized to think china isn’t fascist. I’m not sure if I can discuss with someone who cannot see how their own country is run …
The government is not the people .
I get that you’re angry you’ll never own your home in the US,
… I’m on track to get one in 2 years.
Every single country on earth has this clause. Every single one
…no

And you call me propagandized… No, people in jail aren’t disappeared because they lost their right to talk to the press. No, there is not a global network of secret police arresting Chinese people. No, China is not alone in blocking travel to their country for hate speech or other bigotry.
If you believe these things, and you seriously see no problem with them, you aren’t able to speak on politics. It’d be like discussing consent with a Mormon or physics with a flat earther… I mean seriously, a global network of secret police stations in other countries? Complete control of the speech of 1,400,000,000 humans?
This is as ridiculous as the ‘Jewish new world order’ stuff a lot of you people believe

…no one ever said complete. You’re intentionally exaggerating my statements into thing that are not to make them so more unrealistic than they actually are. I know your type.
Like this. Changing what I said into something else.
I’m calling you propagandized because you’re going to deny the oppression of the uyghurs in your country. You’re also just outright ignoring what happened in hong kong.
China is NOT the same.

Are black Americans oppressed in the US by being put in prison? Is it because they’re black or because they’re poor and thus more likely to need to do crime in order to survive?
If there were a solution that brought the entirety of black Americans out of poverty by locking up the most dangerous 10% of them after a jury trial and conviction until they were rehabilitated, while massively investing in majority black areas to ensure poverty is no longer a thing in those areas, would you do it?
This isn’t whataboubtism, before you fail to report me for that.
Also Hong Kong was colonized until it was returned to China, it was never independent. I’m sorry white people lost their tax haven.

No, you’re right, that isn’t whataboutism.
It’s a hypothetical about what did not happen to the chinese population.
Surely violently killing students is reasonable in light of that…
