What is China going to do?

Hell with China’s track record, it’s better that China has it than the US government if you’re in the US.

The star of David was adopted as a Zionist symbol, not a Jewish symbol. Before ~1850 it would be ridiculous to conflate the two, and until the 1940s it was still incredibly controversial to link it to Judaism. It was ironically the Nazis that popularized the idea a hexagram should be the Jewish symbol.

No, governments can be great. Fantastic even. Not fascist governments.

The United States, having just elected capital to have exclusive state power, is fascist.

Note:don’t do this if you’re a minority compared to your cities population

Congrats, bigot.

Anyway none of that is banned nor gets you banned. Your understanding of China comes from the CIA. You’re a puppet, pretending you’re free, and you refuse to challenge your owners beliefs.

Winnie the Pooh is not banned in China, the movie came out in public theaters you can search it on any Chinese site, you can buy merch on any Chinese site from any manufacturer of cheap shit and have it shipped to a mainland address.

This was honestly the weirdest obsession of racist westerners in 2017, the insistence a random yellow Disney character was banned due to westerners yet again calling the Chinese yellow skinned animals.

Not a ban evade, not propaganda. And you’re not on reddit. Please remember that. More importantly, I’m glad you found that you hated the US government, all governments really, and would like to dismantle capitalism in favor of mutual aid networks and found the right instance for all that early.

Some don’t find a friendly instance early.

That’s not criticism. Criticism would be, since the US tortures and kills more civilians in war than any other modern combatant force, as proven repeatedly by whistleblowers and leaks, the US is not a moral army and shouldn’t be allowed to operate a global military network that seems to solely exist to destabilize the global south and ensure white supremacy remains the default mode of thinking.

That’ll get you banned on Twitter, that gets you shadow banned on bluesky, that’ll get you ip banned on reddit, and will get you demonetized on YouTube.

Edit: also lemmy is as American as an American flag made after 1980

Well this has been great but since you can’t stop breaking comm rules, this is over. If you think you have freedom to not be right wing on Facebook or x, go ahead and try. You’ll be banned in a week, or shadow banned much sooner.

Assuming you’re lgbtq and still in the US, based on you being a blahaj user, those ordinary people are going to remove your right to marry, get medical care, or live openly as a member of the lgbtq.

Ordinary people, not evil people, not ideologues.

You need to recognize those ordinary people you trust were the ones to carry out some of the most evil acts, and all of them believed they were doing the right thing for the greater good. Or don’t and suffer. At this point some of you class traitors deserve what’s coming.

the fediverse is great, you can switch your account away from instances that do not align with your viewpoints or otherwise do not serve you.

If you do that, though, redditors that forgot what service they’re on will judge you

None of those things are banned, please check a fact checking website of your choice.

In any case we’re talking about Tiktok, which pretty much just banned hate speech, non advertiser friendly violence, and nudity. This is better than all American social media platforms which ban political speech outside what the US has deemed acceptable.

More importantly, even if we lived in an alternative reality where your bias were true… That’s still better for Americans than American social media. Americans need to be able to criticize the US government and it’s allies. You can’t effectively do that on American social media without being banned. China doesn’t care, so they t it happen.

Why? The Chinese government has proven itself more trustworthy and less of a censor than the US government. US social media, therefore, isn’t worth using.

The US government used to take black people, tell them they were getting free medical care, and instead gave them syphilis and purposefully refused to treat it to watch the disease’s progression.

The US government, via the CIA, decided to infiltrate every national news outlet in order to influence what stories were published.

Both of these are proven facts, the last one is from declassified CIA documents.

Yes, there are some normal people in government. But the US government has done some of the worst actions of any group in history.

Bringing up comparators is not deflection. And no, you didn’t refute my claim. Self defense is not offensive wars. You can be peaceful while being forced into war. Peaceful does not mean no violent, simply not seeking violence.

No, Patrick, not everyone that disagrees with you is a bad faith actor.

That’s part of the problem with modern liberals, you’ve propagandized yourselves into believing you’re the only intelligent creatures and anything or anyone else that doesn’t agree must be subhuman idiots. It’s why you people constantly fail to secure even the easiest of support.

Right, when you choose to be black, people like you give it consequences. Your logic is flawless.

I’m not the person you were arguing with. Based on your argument, your words, there are no consequences for discriminating against black people, and shouldn’t be.

There are, if you include the law, but since we’re ignoring it to make your argument work, there’s no consequences.

When arguing something, trying arguing the opposite to yourself before posting.

Based on your argument, free speech means no consequences. Stop being a debate bro if you’re this bad at it.

You were wrong, and he thoroughly showed you how you were wrong.

By your logic being black has consequences.
