Because first and foremost, these people are authoritarians. Like Jews for Hitler, their craving for the taste of a boot, and to see those they regard as ‘degenerates’ as smashed under it, is far greater than their own sense of self-preservation.

I think there’s also a contingent that is anti US no matter what, so anyone against the US is good and whether they’re a dictator is a secondary concern.

You’re the one with the pro-genocide position though, at least from what I can tell from your posts

You’re probably telling wrong. But do provide an example, please. Edit: inb4 it’s just a “vote for Biden” comment, while also leaving out the “but still pressure him into withholding support for Israel” part.

I imagine a healthy number of them are wumao agitators and do not have any consistent identity or beliefs beyond “demoralize westerners.”

mfw the CCP is making gorgeous Imperial-history period-pieces with government-funding but denying us the sheer level of historically accurate homosexuality that should come with them

It’s an offense against history AND art

“It’s okay if non-Westerners murder LGBT folk, it’s just ‘blowback’ and really the West’s fault for supporting LGBT rights.”

I’m so glad there are instances that aren’t infested with tankies. I tried to argue that China was imperialist and erased minority cultures on lemmy.ml and half my comments got removed. Anything mentioning Tibet or Xinjiang they seem to seek out like flies to shit.

My introduction to lemmy was trying to argue with hexbears that N Korea propagandizes its citizens more than the US. Apparently I was wrong and dumb and N Korea is a really awesome place to live, despite none of the hexies moving there for some odd reason 🤔

Do not go to ml or hex and point out that maybe Taiwan has a right to self determination as Ukraine does.

Or that the Houthis are… basically fundamentalist pirate/terrorists.

Its is absolutely amazing the number of femboy/catgirl/trans/lgtbqia+ people do not understand that being themselves in say Soviet Russia or modern Russia or China at basically any point in time I am aware of, or nearly anywhere in the Middle East or Africa… they would be massively oppressed if not outright jailed or killed.

As you say with North Korea, with China as well there is this mental wall of everything bad you hear about those places is Western Propaganda.

I feel like we are at the point where a lot of these types of people would think Pol Pot was actually based and the Dead Kennedys were reactionary fascists.

“Anarkiddies” is their usual term of abuse.

I like seeing the posts where they discuss satellite images showing it is completely dark at night.

Those are photoshopped images from untrustworthy western media; do not trust them. Homes in North Korea shine as bright as our love for our esteemed leader.

They just deny everything about Xinjiang, but somehow it needs multiples of them come out to do so.

Here in Taiwan, we welcome all. We don’t care what you look like or who you love. We want to share our culture with you and hope you have an everlasting love for my country.

The “China good, America baaaaad 🐑” thing really doesn’t make sense to me. I understand that a lot of people are pretty disillusioned by life here in the States but like… China though? That’s your paragon of human rights? Like spoiler alert those are bad dudes, running China.

It’s deeply unserious, and then they wonder why others don’t take them seriously. But the People’s Billionaires With Chinese Characteristics are peak socialism, I guess.
