Looking at the comment replies to any Jeremy Corbyn tweet (even ones on non-spicy topics) is always a good reminder of the futility of reformism. The Bourgeois state can and will utilize the most effective propaganda apparatus in history to warp people’s minds in real-time to their own aims. Like here where this dipshit thinks a flimsy accusation thrown at China over Uyghurs is somehow worse than the very-real pogrom with a mountain of recorded evidence coming in as we speak.

    I'm sure I don't know "all the facts" but if I had to pick some impossible hypothetical, I'll take Uyghur status over Palestinian. I'm imaging saying that to some of the China-derangement syndrome people I know IRL and how much it would gobsmack them. I have a new sorta-friend, who is Jewish and an acdemic-lib, and I think if I said that, he'd think I was unhinged at a minimum. When I mention China in positive terms (anodyne stuff like the great food, the pretty places), he has to voice his disdain for the AuTHoriTarianiSm.
