Can't go allowing Western propaganda about "personal liberty" to interfere with our grand plans. But we're definitely not authoritarian. You will grow to love the options we give you.

      3. editoiralizing by saying authoritarian, theres an agenda

        Look at the image linked in the body, that should tell you everything you need to know about his intent.

          lol I guess I did need a trigger warning, look at the controversy this post is generating.

          Odd that the adherents of ideology being charged with censorship are responding by... trying to bury this post with downvotes. The irony is rich.

            Which is exactly what you are apparently after every time you post about China. Why not link more pics supporting the bollocks Uyghur Genocide narrative or links to Business Insider articles about China's scary social credit system?

            Downvotes are censorship

            Oof.

            You're obviously trolling with this "Haha trigger warning amiritite?" bit.

        I didn't realize this site was squarely for current events, might want to mention to people posting pictures of old memes and cats. And you think I need a copy of the physical book in order to make this post? Did you even read the link? Snowden used twitter and some of his readers in China to piece together some of the censored text. And sure, if I have an agenda, it's to keep people questioning their reality.

        Think for yourselves.

          Which is why you insist on perpetuating western narratives like the Uyghur genocide.

          'Questioning reality' apparently leads you right back around to supporting y*nk state department narratives. So much for 'thinking for yourself'.

            Okay now you're just making things up. I've yet to comment on Uyghurs at all.

            Please start thinking for yourself.

              I am sure that picture in your post's body just manifested into existence by divine ordinance.

              OK, I am definitively being had here. Fuck me for being so silly.

                The red hand is pretty universal in regards to Chinese censorship. The image of a Uyghur is happenstance. And I'm not informed enough to have an opinion on China's genocide.

                  So you're not informed enough to have an opinion but you still are informed enough to call it definitely a genocide?

                    I was just quoting you. I'd personally call it sterilization and work-release prison camps, at least for the ones who cooperate.

                    I'll ask you: what happens to the ones who don't cooperate?

                      So you're not informed enough to have an opinion but you are still informed enough to repeat Zenz shit about sterilization? Curious.

                        Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Uyghurs were having kids at double the rate of the Han, and China has certainly clamped down on that. If not sterilization, what whitewashing would you like use, "restricted" births?

                          You're mighty well informed for someone that isnt confident enough to have an opinion, read much of Mr Zenzs work?

      Obviously you gotta be brainwashed to not like a guy repeating western propaganda rhetoric about "grand plans" and "authoritarianism".
