China: Does something cool

Redditors: *Incoherent sinophobic screeching"

China can do all the cool things it wants, not gonna wanna live there whilst the great firewall remains up and it's ruled by a dictator.

Why do you think anyone cares that you don't want to live in China because you'd have to use a VPN to feed your hentai addiction?

don't be too harsh, white libs think they are the center of the universe, so its only natural they think everyone cares about what they think

don't be too harsh, white libs

Does not compute.

If homeboy's previous post hadn't been both-sidesing the violence in Palestine I wouldn't have been so aggressive.

Of course an unelected dictator would be bad. That reminds me, which Supreme Court Justices are you voting for next?

Fuck dude. My state of Texas won't let me vote for Houston ISD board members, now that the state has done a coup de tat on the entire public school administration. Who even gives a shit about the SCOTUS when I'm getting dragged out of a PTA meeting in handcuffs, on the orders of a jumped up real estate agent.

don't even have to go to reddit for the brainworms now that we're federated with the redditors themselves lmao

Parent: We have Redditors at home.

Me, living in a free country with unlimited freedom to do any free thing I want: "Fuck, the police booted my car and now I need to pay hundreds of dollars in fines plus higher insurance premiums."

You, a fucking sucker who lives in a shitty hell-hole fascist dystopia: "Damn, my car got moved to a legal parking spot, which I consider a mild annoyance. I'm going to blog about this on Weibo but not on Reddit, because I lack freedom."

  1. no one's asking you to live there 2. incredibly funny that your reason for not wanting to live there is you think you wouldn't be able to access the internet and not, like, that you don't speak the language or know anyone.
[–] [email protected] 42 points 10 months ago

They actually did all the cool things for the sole purpose of getting you interested in living there. Good on you for not taking the bait

[–] [email protected] 42 points 10 months ago

i promise they don't want you

for that matter, neither do we. maybe go live on the sun

I would like to remind you that the Great Firewall's purpose is to protect the rest of the world from China's unlimited posting power, in accordance with the 2014 Strategic Posting Control treaty. xi-shining

Positive they wouldn't want you either.

More Chinese people believe their government is democratic compared to the number of Americans who think their government is democratic

[–] [email protected] 24 points 10 months ago

liking your government is only possible through brainwashing

good things are impossible sweaty

"Dictator" here meaning "an elected leader that white people don't like."

[–] [email protected] 31 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That dictator's name? Val U. Form.

True democracy doesn't really exist anywhere. Chinese people at least recognize they have limited political rights while westoids smugly and falsely believe they have a say.

中国也不想要你这种洋垃圾
