Its like Hillary walking into a working class kitchen for the first time.

They've been shielded from even critical support of China and other AES for so long they literally, not figuratively, literally cannot process that people exist that have beliefs that aren't Reddit Approved. They immediately assume it's bots or wumao. Human beings can't possibly hold these beliefs, so they must be Oriental hordes or actual robots.

    Looks like a confused liberal wandered into the Hexbear thread about confused liberals wandering into Hexbear, then pretended like it was a made up phenomenon.

        Legit question: having never been to China, or seeing anything regarding the news about China for yourself in any capacity whatsoever, do you ever stop to consider even for a moment that maybe you've been misled by those with all the power and incentive in the world to mislead you? Or do you just take it on good faith that opposing forces to those with power over you are somehow always totally ungood double-bad?

        Follow up question: assuming you're aware as most of the public is that all the means of justification for invading Iraq + Afghanistan were entirely manufactured, do you ever question what else might be made up by the same entities?

          China is in the news all the time, last time I checked they were dealing with floods.

            The bourgeois press lied to me about Iraq and Vietnam, but surely they are telling the truth about China, a country I have never been to and know nothing about! Marvel at my extreme intelligence, fellow redditors!

            He's saying that you've never verified anything you've seen from western news on this subject, but you know they promote incomplete or outright false views in similar circumstances, so why would you uncritically accept their views on China?

            "I know what the news tells me about China is true because it's in the news all the time" is a really funny response ngl.

              Ok but you 2 built up an argument based upon the false assumption that I never question the news. Also what is this community?, not sure how I found this place.

            I think that's the best thing actually- we're all so used to 4channers using the meme mean-spiritedly, but Quattro's sarcasm in the scene was just his way of opening up Amuro to sincerely engage with him about his political cowardice.
