Do you guys think pointing out that almost any English language news covering China is economically/ideologically opposed to China/communism acts as a filter for how they hear about the country would have any effect on these goobers?

      This reminds me of a discussion I saw somewhere where people were basically arguing that the only reason the PRC was able to get the virus under control, and why the same could not realistically happen in burgertown, was because the former is an oppressive government that does not care about the will of its people, and someone pointed out that, perhaps, not dying whilst choking on lung fluid IS the will of the people.

        Vietnam I love it but, it is what it is got the virus under control. There is no reason any developed country should be doing worse than Vietnam outside of them killing people for the line god to keep Larry Fink happy.

      95% approval rating you fucking idiot.

      That just means we're all either brainwashed, too scared to speak out, or a literal species of insectoid drones in a hive mind, depending on how masks off racist the redditor feels like being.

    Man, what is reddit’s fascination with China. You’d think China is committing the most human rights abuses out of any state on earth right now, when I could name Turkey, Israel, USA, Saudi Arabia, Myanmar as 10x worse in terms of genocide/human rights abuses. What the fuck is it with China?

      Reddit is heavily propagandized by the US state agencies and military, China is the new empire in ascendancy so they have to get the population ready for a new cold war or something
