Once Trump is out of office they’ll change their flair back to “I’m with her.”
Anyone who says “East Turkestan” is a fucking crank. Like you are fully gobbling down the propaganda
Not just that, I know that anyone like that would also be insisting that Israel is just a smol bean innocent good guy nation defending themselves from the evil arabs. It’s actually kind of amazing how I’ve never seen someone who believes both Palestine and Xinjiang are genocides.
It’s almost like they know the Xinjiang propaganda is complete bullshit but it lets them be racist against Chinese people and get away with it.
I don’t understand your second paragraph. Most people in Europe think that Israel is committing a genocide, that China is either committing a genocide in Xinjiang or forcing the people into labor camps (and additionally that Putin started the war with Ukraine)
In my experience there are a million hand waves from people (in Australia at least) who will justify why Xinjiang is totally a real genocide while Israel’s situation is just “complicated”. Granted, it is literally illegal in my country to chant “from the river to the sea” so people might just not want to be openly pro-Palestine in public. But they are more than happy to froth at the mouth with glee at the thought of the evil Chinese committing a genocide, they actively want China to be doing horrible things, so they can justify their own blind hatred and racism.
Oh I get it. Different situation about Palestine then. Good luck navigating this then. To me it’s already really hard facing the generalized hatred of China. It’s like I can never take a breather, even surrounded by leftists or “socialists”/“communists” (happened yesterday again), it’s really painful and tiring, and I’ve only been back here for a month (from a 3-month trip to China mind you)
So in Australia and the US I understand it could be extremely challenging
just today I had someone send me the new ethnic unity law to say “see China is forcibly assimilating ethnic minorities to learn mandarin” and compared it to the genocide of Armenians and persecution of LGBTQ people. this is a white USian so we know they really care about ethnic minorities
Wasn’t Vietnam the last significant military conflict China was a part of? Nearly 50 years ago?
But they have a disagreement where exactly some border in the sea is which is basically the same as bombing school girls.
First they take over an island, next they blow up schools full of children. Classic China move, smdh.
Or Japan being the Japanese invasion of China in WW2.
A lot have shifted from saying China is militarily expanding and changed to economically doing it. Then use Africa as the example.
When people point out they’re describing the methods the west/IMF does it not how China does it they get angry and insulting. Just like when pointing out how china’s wiping the floor with automakers
I’m sorry, which of these countries and provinces did China invade and bomb hundreds of thousands to death? Which of them did they place under sanctions to kills hundreds of thousands?
China is not perfect, but any one of these locations would NEVER trade places and relationships with Afghanistan-America, Iraq-America, Libya-America, Vietnam-America, DPRK-America, etc.
I agree with your point of course. But there was the whole unfortunate business with Vietnam over Pol Pot getting put down. Luckily despite some unresolved issues, relations are pretty friendly these days.
Nepal is literally just minor border disputes about where some buildings are, how mountains work, etc. Other than that, they invest heavily in trade with Nepal, a fair number of Chinese people live/work there. I honestly don’t know what they’re talking about other than some made up shit like China is taking over the country through trade reliance. Relations with China have helped them to have less reliance solely on India.
Nepal is one of the few countries that China has no border disputes with as far as I know. Ironicially Nepal does have a border dispute with India, the only contested border in the Himalaya that doesn’t involve China.
They’ve had discussions, but ‘disputes’ is maybe even putting it too harshly. There’s been a few points where some Nepal buildings were technically in the Chinese borders and whatever, but they’re not hitting each other with sticks or actually getting upset about it. They’ve also built railroads and more direct routes from China to Nepal and invested tons of money into development projects in Nepal.
Other than the Nepal govt generally being corrupt at most points up till now and probably not always using that money wisely, it’s only a positive relationship.
‘Anti-fascist’ supporting ETIM
I’d be completely unsurprised if I learned that this same person thinks Hamas bad
Literally every single country in that list was a victim of US or British violence that resulted in hundreds of thousands to millions killed, either direct or by a puppet government or both.
Like maybe Japan kinda had it coming but other than that, genocidal colonialism and genocidal anti-communism.
Why mention all these and then not mention the border conflicts with the Soviet Union following the Sino-Soviet split??
Because that requires actually learning history instead of making it up.
Expert Chinese political scientist doesn’t know Taiwan and China are the same country. Expert doesn’t know Xizang, Macau and Hong-Kong are also Chinese
Oh my god. They have some border conflicts and internal conflicts? THESE THINGS NEVER HAPPEN ANYWHERE ON THE WORLD MY GOD CHINA IS TRULY NEXT STEP OF HITLERIANISM
Too ironic to not be a bit
GOT’EM
