    so when trump snatched people off the streets months ago and we were all pissed and etc, it was a pragmatic and relatively humane approach to counter terrorism?

    so the censorship is cool and justified because its some other countries fault?

    and harsh death penalties is cool because a ancient opium war?

    im just saying like if this was a thing here, which some of it is, and is getting worse which we always hate on, why is that cool and a justification for things that literally we accept no justification for here

          Re-education is a process of raising their skill sets so they can work better jobs and thus improve their material conditions. This then results in the dropping of the extreme ideology because they actually have good lives to live.

          There is absolutely no death-penalty involved in the RE EDUCATION of a small number of the at-risk population there. You are horribly informed, I can only assume you've gotten your information from reddit comment sections in liberal communities and never taken any time to verify it among socialist spaces, even /r/socialism, a radlib/socdem space, will take you to task on how badly informed you are .

          Get informed. It's incredibly embarrassing that even the libs over there are better informed that you are.

              You're being a reactionary.

              That was not even enough time to glance over what was sent to you, let alone enough time to watch or engage with it.

              If you won't actually take ANY time to learn what we have all taken the time to learn then you are a reactionary. Pure and simple. Either take the time to get properly informed and learn or get out of leftist spaces because you're not a leftist. We don't take positions and then endlessly defend them without actually doing the homework, do the homework, then we'll talk further. Stop being such a massive child. Take the 20-30minutes you need to actually learn the leftist side of this topic.
