Okay, so background: I'm your average pro-gun fuck-the-police, fuck-trump zoomer honed by years of unsupervised internet access and I've just discovered this community and started lurking for a while. But I still hold extremely negative views on China, which I still think are justified.

"Which views?" I'll throw them out real quick: child labor! internet censorship! media censorship! anti-LGBTQ! uygher genocide? positive and pro war relations with russia! (because fuck putin)

So I get really confused anytime I see people expressing pro-China sentiments. Have I been spoonfed by the media or are some of these points actually justified?

    I'm glad it's made sense, I'd suspect all of us are hoping for the best from China.

    Domestically, we should be prepared for any opportunity to change things, maybe the gears come to a sudden halt and we can seize on that.

    But it's more like than not that the US simply becomes more overtly fascist than the latent fascism inherent to it today. If there's any hope for the world at that point, there has to exist a force capable of stopping the US. And in the aftermath, powerful enough to make sure that it isn't given a real seat at the table.
