the_dunk_tank
It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Nah, it's fine, you're making sense. The liberal worldview tries to fit everything into binary good/bad when the real world doesn't exist like that. Any nation or group of people will do good things and bad things, liberals just ignore or justify the "bad things" their team does, while ignoring or denying all the good things the enemy team does.
It's important for us to remember to actively reject this sort of mentality ourselves, it can be tempting to push back against liberal claims about China with a "China is actually perfect and an ideal place!" but that isn't any more true than whatever liberal horror story about them is being pushed in the news this week. China is a nation like any other, with great accomplishments, but also errors and failures.
