MODERATORS
None of these people go after the united states as hard as they go after communists with absolutely no power.
Largest imprisoned population, massive exporter of war, hosts almost all the richest most exploitative capitalists in the world, props up dictators around the world, multiple instances of interfering with democracy because they didn't like the result, literally makes children swear allegiance in school, holds the world to ransom every time they don't get what they want, disregards international law.
Thinking it's basically ok with some tweaks? Wholesome chungus opinion.
It cannot be stressed enough that this figure is NOT PER CAPITA. The US has the largest total number of prisoners of any nation on earth. It's fucking obscene the scale of the US prison system. Unimaginably worse than the worst depictions of the soviet gulag system.
And the numbers look even worse when you compare women prison populations.
So much for those people caring for women's oppression.
The DoJ Archipelago
I saw people on 196 unironically call me being kicked out as "wholesome chungus" and "extremely based"
The instance with a nazi bar problem has people speaking in vague right wing dogwhistles?
I mean tbf, I wouldn't say based is necessarily a right-wing dogwhistle. Idk about wholesome chungus though.
"tankie" is like "woke" and these instances all appear willfully behind the curve on it's adoption by far right infiltrators. what could be more obvious of their alignment with liberalism than their refusal to call us something new? you don't not care about being a hapless tool of the admiral patricks of the world unless you sympathize/want to assimilate with them.
You're right, they're probably more Redditism than actual dogwhistles. Always hard to tell with any sort of internet slang since it all originates on 4Chan
Based doesn't come from 4chan and I refuse to let the right have it, I like it too much and it's reclaimed meaning is too wholesome.
Whats shocking is it took this long for this to happen
They suck honestly
"Hah, silly tankie, don't you know that China also bad? Heh, can't even understand nuance, which is why I have to support the US in order to stop you dumb tankies."
We invaded their minds and have been living their rent free ever since
You've invaded my heart
Drops 46 bombs a day vs hasn't been in a war for 46 years
40 years seems specifically chosen to dodge ~~maos~~ dengs L in vietnam. Even then US is worse though.
40 continuous years can hardly be called cherry picking.
You mean Deng invading Vietnam, no?
Yeah youre right this is a deng L. My bad
I too, thought that was a Mao L. Good to know.
40 years is the rough time period most people consider "modern" for contemporary events. Going older than 40 seems like "history" to most people.
I wouldn't call it a dodge, everyone knows China has participated in a couple of invasions/bombings in the earlier part of its history, the point is that in the last 40 decades they have not, so if we are to evaluate how they are now or how they will be in the immediate future, that seems like a useful thing to point out.
Oh I'm sorry, it seems you haven't heard about the independent State of Basuria
I've seen people just pretend with no evidence that it's China because lying seeseepee. I heavily disagree with the lack of transparency in the Chinese justice system, but people act like it entitles them to just assert literally anything.
Umm sorry ~~sweaty~~ tankie but China actually as 10 trillion in jail
