they didn't ban it they're just probating anyone using the term completely different, and it's frankly unsurprising that neither of you can understand the nuance

Just have to be creative about it Cuz, you know, posting requires a lot of concentration. Camp is a key feature of 80s films and I wish they'd bring it back in reboots of such old fare

Are there any good recommended leftist sources for current event news from China as well as any possible recommendations for leftist breakdowns of Chinese history? The last few years have been a real big eye opener on just how deeply I've been submerged in western imperialist news about basically everything, and I'd like to remedy this.

The CIA and I, for example, support use of the term Enhanced Interrogation. It's still terrible, but it's also easier to automatically associate with America since the same way 'torture' makes you think of Nazi Germany, Enhanced Interrogation is more likely to make you think of what the Jack Bauer did to the terrorists and is an easier parallel to draw with what's happening to the criminals in guantanamo now.

i feel embarrassed to even say this and am willing to submit to any humiliation or punishment required, but i joined some left-wing discord server (i said it was embarrassing) and got a random PM from some guy who was like "hey, go into this server [this vaush guy] and ask them that you want X to debate him." and i said what, no, if he wants to debate the guy on his stream, he can ask him himself. and this guy said "no no no, it has be a crowd that demands it, that's how it works." so i left that server and don't go to those places anymore and learned that whole environment is completely pointless and everyone who participates in it should be thrown into a prison including myself
