  • Understandable 🐕 China’s and really any country’s government obviously isn’t 100% bad or strictly worse than another, Idk a lot about Mao but I think killing a bunch of landlords and providing housing super super cheap is pretty awesome. Sorry if I was being super aggressive or anything, I just see a lot of people acting like bc dishonest western propaganda about socialist countries (and even just countries that oppose the US) exists that means they’re utopias and their government can do no wrong. It’s def more complex than hardliners on either side want to pretend it is. I wish I knew how to do more reliable research on anything around China, there’s good lessons to learn there, but it feels like there are almost no primary sources that aren’t CCP or western propaganda










  • There’s a BLM protest over the police shooting an innocent black person 100+ times while they had their hands up. Someone posts about it on lemmy. A bunch of white people come to the thread and mention that the protest is bad because they’ve also been abused by police, and one (1) person there had a sign that says “fuck white people”. They say that sign is evil and racist and spoils the whole protest, and that the protest is garbage anyway because aLl LIveS mAtTEr and how dare they only protest violence against black people? White people are victims too! And BLM is a bunch of racist assholes who hate all white people for not catering to them 24/7 and having the gall to protest issues they disproportionately face rather than protesting for all victims of police violence.

    This is you, to the letter. This is you and every other man coming here to distract from the issue at hand bc your issue is more important and bc you don’t give a shit about the people protesting or the fact that they face disproportionate amounts of violence.

    This Is Not About You

    If there ever is a protest against raping men, I hope nobody trolls it with the same AllLivesMatter bullshit that you are here
