reposting this cause i realized it was probably more applicable here lol today Jacobin published an interview about xinjiang with a spook, sean roberts, who has worked extensively with USAID and now writes for radio free europe and radio free asia how does this keep happening??

that jacobin article with the USAID interview had a massive amount of pushback in the facebook comments... and a ton of people complaining about the tankie army appearing. but seeing a lot of people make fun of the USAID connections and giving jacobin poo poo was better than nothing. i know there’s no way to draw conclusions from internet comments, but i hope that pointing out how egregiously bad the propaganda is, is having some positive effect

Rutibex posted:It's not as lopsided as you think, the English empire is just more diffuse counting the us, uk, and australia might be fair in this context, but the rest of english speakers only speak english because of our economic dominance. liking hollywood movies isnt going to paper over that relatively decreasing reality. china also has centralized control and serious nationalism. “english speakers” are nothing comparable and yeah the amount of spanish speakers doesnt make spain all powerful

how can non americans be convinced that this place is a crumbling pathetic nation full of homeless camps, medical debt, mass imprisonment, mass shootings, and a deeply unhealthy neurotic “culture” resulting in 20% of the population taking psychiatric drugs just so they dont jump off a bridge or have constant panic attacks

Ardennes posted:Honestly, most of those posters are still in the COVID thread. every offsite is worse than this place by miles cspam reaches a critical mass of people where at least there are multiple cliques and its too big to effectively manage the discourse. its not good when there is one clique and they are also the mods

yeah grillpilled is one of the core concepts of Matt Christman Thought. it has been incorrectly characterized as completely checking out of politics, more accurately it’s trying to distance your head from the constant swirling useless nether of twitter discourse, because that breaks most people’s brains one proposal is that no one should be allowed in online discussion except for a class of posting mentats who do the posting for us and we stay out of it. e.g. a bunch of matt bruenig type brains bear the burden of discourse it’s mostly intended as a goof, of course that’s not realistic, but it’s a warning to not let this stuff cause your brain to turn to slurry. it came out of the beginning of covid as a reaction to the race to see how far everyone could drive eachother into being a non-functioning hyperventilating wreck

Flavahbeast posted:so why not just let the UN visit some villages and do some interviews lol, seems like an easy win if everything's sunny in Xinjiang the UN has visited. also you can visit too. xinjiang isn't some off limits area to you, if you have the means. it's not north korea
