Repeating liberal propaganda does not help the argument.

The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.

I'm surprised actually I thought this was a ML party with a platform similar to the CPA. CPA in comparison has a pretty good platform from what I can tell, they're pro China.
Addit: I read their policy statement on PRC. Boils down to that they don't believe CPC is currently practising socialism, reject the idea of an "initial stage of socialism" as claimed by the CPC. But they stress that this is a matter for the Chinese proletariat and thus do not support any colour revolutions against the CPC. This is one step better than the Trotskyists in my view. To be honest I think there is a legitimate theoretical discussion to be had around the path which Chinese socialism has taken and doing so doesn't necessarily mean you're "following liberal propaganda". I think you can discuss pros and cons of the CPC approach without being an ultra. However any criticism must be based on facts. There is no oppression of minorities in China, this is a liberal fabrication. The "Imperialism" claim is hotly contested (by people much smarter than me on all sides) and certainly shouldn't be presented as it is in this article without so much of a hint of examination into its validity.
Personally I try to be a bit more charitable, despite the fact that these people would probably call me a tankie. I don't agree with their line on these issues, but these groups (I'm also thinking about Socialist Alternative) tend to do some good work when it comes to domestic issues, so I try not to bash on them too hard even if their politics on global socialism are dogshit.
I know a friend of mine had a kinda bad experience with ACP as well. Do you really think they'd be supporting concentration camps? Cause that's pretty extreme and I'm very skeptical that they're that bad. Even most libs would oppose that.
