ButtermilkBiscuit@feddit.nl 1 week agoWild seeing it here in .world and other instances all the time. People are entitled to their opinions, but so many comments praising xi or putin are detached from reality. It’s like those people don’t realize that in those countries just speaking your mind against the regime is enough to get you and your family disappeared in an instant. Wow China has great cities this is true - if you say the wrong thing online they’ll put you in a prison labor camp for decades. Ah yes pyongyang is a very clean city - 3 million people died of starvation there in the 90s, they’re experiencing another famine RIGHT NOW. Do people not realize the reality or is it turfing?

It brings to mind the Russian citizens holding “no war” signs being arrested at the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Eventually, even ones holding a blank piece of paper were being arrested.
