Thread now locked, so you can’t brigade
I understand this to be an official endorsement of racism from the mod team at shitjustworks
Enjoy this attempt to find a single non-racist among our new friends
Edit: Mods are mass deleting comments lmao
certified record of good posting
Woah, did not expect their users to defend racism that hard.
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. When the Western media declares a country the new bad guy of the week suddenly racism becomes magically fine if it’s against ‘bad country’. The same thing happened to Arabs during the ‘war on terror’.
Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.
Incredible. Not a single person could even manage a weak ass argument against it.
Just pure
I’m not sure why we should stay federated with racists to be honest.
Especially when instead of doing any sort of self reflection their mods just start banning Hexbear users left and right… for being against racism. You can’t make this shit up lmao
I argued before federating that allowing a comm with a openly racist header said a whole lot about the people that run the instance and the people who hang out there. Some people were inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt given that it is a small and inactive comm.
But I think the post shows that they’d rather try and own the tankies than condemn racism if the question is put to them point blank
Communists tried to kill my grandfather during WW2, what’s wrong about wanting to live?
Since they’re deleting all the HB posts I’ll just post this for posterity
On the face of it it’s so bloody unimportant - you can’t post a picture of winnie the pooh? That is truly the most oppressed anyone has ever been in history.
And then you actually examine all of the articles they have - every single citation is just “reportedly” “allegedly” “this happened to one student” ass primary sources. I’ve never actually looked into this in depth until now (because I actually lived in China and of course saw the fucking bear everywhere), in my mind they had more convincing propaganda than that.
E.g.
“He’s propagating the issue, and frankly, I think he’s humiliated himself by being so childish about it,” says Deb Hoffmann, who holds the world record for the largest collection of Winnie the Pooh memorabilia. “If he would’ve just let it go, it would have died down by now. Plus, if the idiot knew anything, he would be delighted to be compared to Winnie the Pooh. After all, Winnie the Pooh is a very good-hearted, wonderful, thoughtful person. Being compared to Winnie the Pooh is actually quite the compliment!”
This may be the most shit, how they invent reality and then react to what they imagined. The making up a guy to get mad at model of journalism. Also, this person quoted is literally just a collector of marketable slop? Why would I care what they think?
They use the “winnie the pooh” thing because of implications and associations. If China is so cruel and evil to ban something completely harmless, what else must they be banning, in secret? There’s a whole lot of unspoken assumptions around this stuff. The western press know that liberals are terminally fiction brained and so just let them fill in the blanks with their imagination.
