I can’t speak for others, but I have a threshold for it. Communists are fine. Anarcho-communists are fine. Privileged idiots living in a western country and holding the stance that “anything west is bad and therefore anything against the west is good” and praising dictatorship governments while calling themselves communist are not.
Yup. You can criticise the west, colonialism, and capitalism as much as you want. I’ll agree with you more often than not if you do. But the second you start praising the imperial actions of Russia or China, or making absolutely laughable comments about China being the real exemplar of a democratic nation, or pretending the degree of censorship and authoritarianism in western countries is even remotely comparable to those of places like China and North Korea, you’re a tankie and even the things I’d otherwise agree with you about become suspect.
It is amazing how brainwashed you people are that you agree with China nearly in totality, except you think you don’t because you were raised in China bad and believe propaganda about them.
lol, what a shit take. I’m just capable of having complex thoughts about things and don’t reduce it to “my side good. Other side bad” like tankies do. China’s treatment of the Uighurs is very plausible genocide and at the very least exploitative and imperial. Ditto Tibet. Their trampling over the rights of Hong Kongers and international agreements in order to do cannot be described as anything other than imperial and authoritarian. And their posturing towards Taiwan is nothing short of terrifying in the same way any country threatening to invade and annex another independent nation would be.
This is all just facts on the ground, not propaganda. Nothing you might wish to retort regarding America or other western countries bears any relevance, because I’m just not interested in whataboutism.
I do beg you to do the tinest bit of research into pre unification Tibet or even some research into xinjiang and it’s current state and what programs actually exist there and why. Your media lied to you, little one.
Shit lib supports genocide, what’s new? .world tends to attract neoliberal bootlickers and reactionaries who call anyone left of them a “tankie”.

That’s pretty racist to say that giving people education and stopping terrorism and pedophilia is genocide.
k. Stick to your tankie lines then.

Ooh, condescension along with tankie bullshit. It’s a win-win!
It’s honestly kinda cute that you tankies actually think you’re anything other than fascists.
