      Sure more past grievances from fascist hexbear. Yeah yeah the British were horrible colonizers. I can say that where I live.

      But how about we discuss how you feel about the Tiananmen Square massacre. But of course you can't because you're afraid of the repercussions of discussing it even today, don't you?

        You know they teach about it in China, right? You're so far up your own ass you're just telling stories about stories you've been told and none of them have anything to do with reality.

        I feel sort of a warm, minty sensation. I really appreciate the students willingness to boldly confront the Deng government to voice their opposition to the imposition of liberal market economics, and I'm sympathetic to their position that social conservativism and a very restrictive public culture was not in line with communist practice. It also demonstrates the delicate balance of power between the party and the people.

          The chilling effects of that massacre exist in China to this day. It's something that's blocked by their nationwide firewall and people refuse to discuss it out of fear of having some trouble with the authorities.

        I do love how you keep playing to Tiananmen Square card like it's all 5 pieces of Exodia against Hexbears (supposedly) and it repeatedly has no effect.

        The times in your past where it's worked, it may have been with teenagers that support China to be edgy.

        We're educated who understand China's faults and side with China over US/UK/Can anyway. But you simply can't comprehend people that think China's positives outweight it's negatives without them being paid 50 cents a post.
