Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 2 weeks agoHow many bombs has China dropped in the last 50 years? There’s a reason so many people prefer China over America.
so many people prefer China over America.
(citation needed)
also, yeah, bombs are one thing, and i see your argument there.
however, what moves people is largely the economic situation. people get dissatisfied with the US today because incomes are declining for the masses.
No response to the pew research article? Just downvotes? Interesting.
Hellooooo
I sure as heck don’t prefer China. America and China are both awful.
I think you’ve been drinking too much Chinese gutter oil.
I think you’ve been mainlining American propaganda for your entire life. How many illegal wars has America started in the last 50 years? What about China?
Hardly. I’m not American nor do I live in America. I will happily agree with you that America sucks, and yes I am fully aware they have illegally or unethically interfered with other countries in many ways, including starting wars, for a long time.
However, China is not some wonderful utopia you seem to be trying to paint it as. There are many problems with China too, obviously not exactly the same problems as America, but they exist, and to claim otherwise just makes you look like a CCCP shill.
Show me where I’ve done that. Should be easy for you, you’ve said it multiple times lol.

I never said America was free of problems.
That’s the issue with people like you; you see zero nuance. Any criticism of any (pseudo-)socialist group must be met with Whataboutism or other bad faith arguments.

Answer the question or fuck off, lol.

I’m happy to concede it’s zero without looking it up; it makes no difference to either of our positions here.
It’s just a Red Herring for you to mount a soapbox to tell me and anyone who hasn’t blocked you yet how China Did Nothing Wrong and America Did Nothing Good.
That’s why people evidently keep calling you a tankie, and that’s how you and I differ so I never get called a tankie.
TL;DR: Not All Socialists Are Tankies, but All Tankies Think All Socialists Are Tankies.
