There's almost 0 state efforts to preserve the cultural identities of immigrants of any kind

When people celebrate "diversity" in the West, it's just eating shawarma, drinking boba, watching Anime, listening to kpop, and eating at an Ethiopian restaurant. Pure commodification and consumerism masquerading as celebration and promotion of foreign cultures

Or you'll have people fetishizing about spicy latinas, lightskins, and Asians like they're fucking Pokemon cards

    You might be, but doesnt mean the Chinese Government is. Hence all the money and resources they're stockpiling in their new elites.

      Let me clarify. I don't believe the claims about TikTok you made, but if they were true it'd be good.

      Death to America.

        They're trying to say that "China isn't Socialist" (which is wrong, btw), & are alluding to your username to make that claim.

          Oh, I see.

          Even if I accepted that characterization of China, it'd have no bearing on me wanting to see the US & "the West" broken lol

            That's the part that always baffles me. Anticommunist propaganda always seems to hinge on the accusation that "They're almost as bad as we are."

            Even if we didn't have an incredibly strong tradition of making baseless, lurid claims against everything left of the Clintons, the accusations only ever approach the atrocities that the US not only admits but also upholds. This shifts the proposition from "Would you support something as evil as we claim they are," to "Would you risk whatever material security you have for just some improvement instead of perfection?"

            It's an appeal to cowardice
