“China is also supporting genocide abroad, they are helping prop up Putin’s war in Ukraine.”

I understand that, my point on that was China is doing the same thing. And again not dismissing the things we are doing.

Buddy I didn’t deny anything about how our own government is actively an authoritarian regime or any of the shitty things it is doing. But we still are not at People’s Republic of China (PRC) levels yet. We do not actively censor the media on the same level as PRC where even the slightest hint of disapproval is enough to be disappeared, yes though the waters are being tested here. For now we still have elections on the state level that can mean something since more than one party can run. We are still allowed to protest here without just being shot on sight. We have an uncensored internet for the time being so I do think it is fair to say we are not as bad as the PRC.

China is also supporting genocide abroad, they are helping prop up Putin’s war in Ukraine. Which Russia is kidnapping children to “reeducate them and give them proper parents” while slaughtering civilians. China is also a one party state and brutally suppresses any attempt at a protest. Their interest and their media are highly censored and any mention of criticizing the state can get you disappeared or sent to a “reeducation camp”.

I’m not dismissing the shitty things we have done and are doing. Nor am I denying we are actively flying towards the competitive authoritarianism that China has. But as of right now we are not as bad as China is.

China is still actively committing genocide against the Uyghurs so I’d would definitely not say the last one

Just enforce laws around stealing others work and regurgitative artificial idiots wouldn’t even exist to be a problem cause they could not exist.

At least Nero still did the whole bread and circuses act and was mostly liked by the public.

He’s much more of a later Roman emperor who stopped giving a shit about the bread and circuses idea.

Stop with the dumb questions already. The answer is any social media platform with inherent interests in selling user data or selling ads are willing to trade anything for more money now. If democratic processes get in the way then so be it to these wastes of oxygen. Now let’s start asking some meaningful questions please.
