Xi Jinping is also a dictator.

I was gaming with friends on Discord when the topic of China passingly came up and one guy started going off about how China and Russia are both socially backward authoritarian dictatorships and how China is communist in name only, oppresses its minority groups and no true socialist should support them.

Anyway, they're also pro-NATO

    "The only people that claim china is han-supremacist are the far right so who have you been reading/hanging out with?"

    Like even libs will concede that it's not that. People should be challenged for repeating far right fascist propaganda.

      This is so blatantly untrue, I've met so many PMC Bernie bros who believe this. Actually, I think more PMC Bernie bros think China is Han-supremacist than not...

      The issue is they're all hardcore redditors

        They got it from fascists spreading it on reddit and did absolutely no critical thinking about who was saying it because they wanted to believe it due too their anti-china brainworms. It's still fascist in origin. It's literally in the Christchurch shooter's manifesto, raising this with them makes them extremely uncomfortable.
