Wish I could persecute some Falun Gong fuckos right now.

it's so funny to hear people uncritically defend them. Like, I have a friend from Hong Kong who's fairly middle of the road on stuff, not really 'anti-China' but falls into the kinda generic HK 'well the response to the protests was too aggressive even if the protests were dumb' centrist stuff you see a lot. Even she makes fun of how dumb Falun Gong supporters are and how hilarious it is people in the west get hoodwinked by them. loving nobody respects those guys!

if anyone should be on Falun Gong's side it should be a person who's main view on China's behavior is 'I'm not anti CCP but they should be nicer to the people who keep trying to undermine them' and they can't even get that! Total joke cult, sad.

Top City Homo posted:my theory has always been that the PRC uses the USA as a Palantir into the future for "if we gently caress up the economy completely, gut the interior with drugs, unemployment and plague, and just go hog wild with bullshit economic bubbles, how will our economy look in 30 years?" then adjust in the opposite direction.

Have we hyped ourselves here into believing that was the only reason for people to march in Tiananmen and across Beijing? quote:On April 17, spontaneous memorials for Hu occurred in 26 university campuses across Beijing. Government records of this occurrence "noted that activities had already turned from mourning Hu to complaining about how he was treated by the CCP and then to wider social grievances" (Kerns, 48). The student mourners would then begin to organize marches, eventually reaching Tiananmen Square. The students had drawn up a list of seven items (that is, demands) for discussion, which were:

Some Guy TT posted:did you seriously just unironically quote reddit as an authority on this Are the demands quoted inaccurate? I'm not making a value call on the demands, further economic liberalisation of China would have been a disaster, but its worth engaging with it beyond the other protests about wanting to kick out African students.

So has this guy just not been paying attention to all the protesters who have been brutalized, arrested, and imprisoned during BLM, Standing Rock, Occupy, etc? And it's not like this is new; off the top of my head, nobody was ultimately held responsible for Kent State, for example. Also, I thought the succ thread was for this sort of syq.

And it's not like this is new; off the top of my head, nobody was ultimately held responsible for Kent State, for example. It's a disparity in exposure and coverage. Westerners are constantly bombarded with liberal propaganda and are raised to believe that their countries make mistakes but ultimately mean well. Meanwhile China is more and more constantly reported on as a mass murdering nation of psychopathic slaves. People move on from riots and other uprisings to their day to day lived experience like nothing happened, while very few people have any real lived experiences in China. So in the end all that remains is your ideological conditioning. Those uprisings in the US are all just bumps in the road to a nebulous liberal utopia, but China wants to achieve worldwide fascism.
