                  Just posting an image of a man who stood in front of an actively moving tank, crawled all over it, then walked away unscathed doesn't prove anything that you think it proves.

                  Go do that on one of your own military's tanks today. You'd be doing me, yourself, and frankly the entire world a favour if you had the courage to try it.

                It's the 1989 Tiemaman square Tank Man picture and Xi Jinping as Whinnie the Pooh, images commonly censored in China as one of them demonstrates clear oppression and the other discredits the CCP.

                  Oppression is when you stand in the way of a tank and the tank stops for you, and then you climb on top of the tank and have a conversation with the guy in the tank, and then you walk off completely unharmed

                    Reporters were kept away by force and the CCP tried as hard as they could to hide all evidence. Crushed protestors were washed down drains with hoses, and many were whisked away to secret graves. Despite this, there is still significant photographic evidence

                  Recently someone started trying to bring large Lemmy instances down by posting CSAM on large instances with open sign ups, as a result the hexbear mods made it so that images from untrusted instances wouldn't be shown to hexbear users to avoid hexbear users having to see stuff like that and to reduce the mods workload, idk whether its a temporary measure or not but for now all images from untrusted instances are just replaced with the words *removed externally hosted image* on our end

                    I had to see and report some offensive material on that line, and while it was quickly removed by our admins I don't think there's any way to actually prevent it.

        When being "not pro west" means not analyzing the conflict but simply adopting the same point of view as Russian propaganda just because Ukraine is supported by the west then yeah, you're pro Russia.

          Why can't you see the difference? We see the west and Nato as having propagated and profited off of this conflict. Russia is guilty as well as Ukraine in fanning the flames of war. But peace is a far better alternative to war and far better than flooding the area with weapons. Weapons that will continue to do damage long after hostility ends. Pro Russia How?

          Just like you analyzed our news megathreads from the last year to make this assessment?

          It just fucking baffles me how people from other instances feel so comfortable talking shit straight from their ass. I just don't understand the mentality. It's fucking slimy. You can just do that shit and you don't feel dirty?

                    If all your sources are propaganda then what does that make your claims? 🤔

                    Want me to find sources that COVID doesn't exist, that the earth is flat, that the moon landing never happened?

                    You know just because you have a source behind what you say it doesn't make it right, that's the stuff you learn by staying in school.
