  That would be an extra 5,000 gallons of shower usage for me if I got them.

  I’ve often thought about Poland and the pacific ocean. I always considered you could fit 7 or 8 or 173 or even 9. But 16? That really is mind blowing.

  I grew up with doom/unreal tourn/quake…all with mods etc… so now every single first person game feels like just a mod of a generic first person shooter. Halo, skyrim, bioshock, rdr… it’s like I’m ruined for an entire section of games.

  I meant they block so much but actually fully allow everything by allowing vpn without any punishment. Seems like a huge waste of money to maintain a firewall that they no longer want to enforce.

  Interesting. Every tool that I use says apnews.com is blocked. I wonder why they block anything if they allow everything.

  Don’t forget millions of girls that went “missing” between 1980 and 2015. This number is also likely higher than the holocaust. Unimaginable.

  I’m blocked by you?

  And nothing of value was lost.

  You can use sites to check if they are banned by China’s great wall. Lemmy.ml…blocked. if the Chinese leadership decided to crack down on vpn they could. Up to the whim of a single guy without any recourse. I guess that’s ok for some.

  Make public statements and publications in support of lgbtq+ in a city in China. See how that goes for you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨.ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Huh…lgtbq+ is treated as “obscene” and “vulger” officially by the Chinese government. Materials on the subject are kept out if mainstream publication…OFFICIALLY.

  BTW I can’t h hear you. Lemmy.ml is blocked in China.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨.ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy.ml is blocked in China. You have to subvert the Chinese government to access it. That ok with some people I suppose. So you have to use foreign technology to access foreign sites from China… that’s ?freedom? baby.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨.ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  How do you know this information? You can’t look it up on Wikipedia in China… that’s blocked. Oh, read about it in the associated press? BBC?.. nope. All blocked. Ignorance is bliss it seems.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨.ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  FYI, lemmy.ml is blocked in China… so I can’t hear you.

  No one said the US is doing anything perfectly. What about the incarceration rate in the Netherlands? Individual freedom is difficult and comes at a cost. Chinese citizend simply do not have all the freedoms others in the west have. They are not allowed to demand it wether they want it or not.

  I don’t know. Much of the fediverse is blocked. Would this instance be blocked? Have to check.

  We probably couldn’t have this conversation if you lived in China and you are ok with that. I mean you could sneak around and get away with it probably. FREEDOM!

  You are fighting against a tide of trolls or sheep. There is nothing you can do but block these people that try to rationalize away dictators.

  I just looked at your comment history. Sorry, I didn’t realize what you were. Blocked

  Allowing open and free access to the internet. This provides accountability. China gets to mold the internet to their will. If they don’t want you to know it, you have to subvert them to find it online. Want to find out what’s going on by watching the news? You get a carefully curated version of the news and no way to fact check with independent sources outside of the country…without subversion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨.ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So the internet is openly accrssible… as long as you circumvent government authority? That doesn’t sound like “openly”.

  I guess that answer means no?

  People can openly protest the party in control in a city center? They can openly access the world wide internet?

  Can you openly criticize the Chinese party in control? Can you protest without violent retribution?

  You can do these things in the usa. Accountability.

  China won’t let the full intent through. The US does. Accountability.

  You seem to like when the government heavily censors domestic media, the internet, and academic discourse, and actively suppresses political dissent, protests, or criticism of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Movement within China is regulated. The justice system in China has a 99% conviction rate…for whichever side supports the side of the state. Mass surveillance with no legal recourse. You wouldn’t even know if you had it good or not. Unless you are fine not knowing I suppose.
