It's funny that a year or so ago this thread was full of such histrionic little weiners that even mentioning Cum Town was grounds for probation; it's legitimately refreshing to see that CSPAM has chilled out a bit (I daresay most of the more easily offended posters migrated to Bread and Roses).

I think "leftists ranting about China" is probably one of my biggest political "triggers" (as in things that make me irrationally angry). There's something about claiming to be "on the left" and opposed to mainstream US politics while just gobbling down state department propaganda that is exceptionally disturbing. It's also just generally a massive red flag that someone's politics are terminally hosed up if they're an American constantly talking about the crimes of China/Russia/whatever.

The flip-side of this is just as irritating - the PSL leftists who rush to defend the DPRK and Stalin or handwave Uyghur genocide as imperialist propaganda. Maybe I’m too deep into local leftist circles, but I hear that poo poo all the time and it drives me crazy. Ultimately they’re making the same mistake the pro-America nationalists are making, which is centering their entire narrative and understanding of the world around the US. Except, since America is the bad guy, America’s enemies must always be the good guys. Now instead of just gobbling down your own government’s propaganda, you can accept another government’s while still getting to maintain the most contrarian position in all arguments. Win/win!

Most aware bhakt. Also the federal structure of India meant that a lot of states had already started their vaccination programs beforehand. Modi did mothball a lot of state owned manufacturing of vaccine tho.
