Apparently there’s an issue [https://sh.itjust.works/post/37624] with some instances banning users for criticizing authoritarian governments. Is lemmy.world a safe place to criticize governments?
Why do these people call it criticism? Like, criticism implies a desire for the thing you're criticizing to improve on something, but most of these people just want to see the CPC destroyed and the entire country run into the ground. Their idea of "criticizing" the CPC is the equivalent of telling someone they should kill themselves and calling that criticism. They'll go on about how "The Chinese are evil disease spreading sub-humans" and when someone calls them out for racism they'll just go all "IT'S NO RACIST TO CRITICIZE THE CCP!!!!!!!!"
Personally, I don't say I criticize the US because that would imply I want it to remain the global hegemon by being more efficient in exploiting the third world, I just want it to fucking die. I don't criticize the US, I shittalk it because I fucking hate it and the dumbass shiteaters who support it.
EDIT: I removed the excessive "like"s I put at the beginning of my sentences and left just one over because they were bothering me after I re-read this.

What I want is for the US to clean up even a fraction of the mess that they've made. What I'd settle for is a dissolution of the state.
