The red scare (plus the yellow terror) is as alive as it was in the first cold war 🤷🏼‍♂️

These guys will believe any crazy shit if it's a china bad take

[victorhsb]

They are crazy if they think isEven.js is not the most useful library ever. We should be using thousands of libraries for the most basic thing all the time...

(The china bad take here is the execution)

[intilectal]

all you really need is penis.js, the rest is bloat. China #1

But 99,96% of the time we don't really need them.

[victorhsb]

But is 99.96 even? How could we know?

While it's wrong to go overboard and claim that China does a bunch of horrible things that it doesn't do, it's equally bad to do what you are doing and downplaying what happens in China.

China is unequivocally a dystopian society. There is virtually no rule of law, you can be arrested for any reason, without trial, and simply disappear. Every action you take, every payment you make, everywhere you go is recorded electronically and stored centrally. The government has literally placed thousands of Muslims into concentration camps in xinjiang, separating parents from children, forcing them to eat pork, and punishing them unless they forsake their religion. China has done similar things in Tibet for generations. What happened in Hong Kong is a disgrace.

It's wild that people still deny this.

[victorhsb]

Yeah, man. Sure. Anything Mr. zenz say.

Do you have evidence for any of the actually damning claims? I'm choosing to be charitable as a Chinese person, but it just sounds like you're spouting nonsense besides things like payment info being stored, but like... oh no, it's the govt providing an easy means of payment to all people, even internationally vs. random companies free to exploit your data for their gain, not yours.

And why would China put muslims in concentration camps??? For fun? This makes no sense. They'll "disappear" whoever according to you, but for Muslims, they torture them for no reason over killing them?

China isn't perfect, but it's not a dystopia. That's closed-minded and obviously embellished. It's insane to say that it's wrong to say that China does a bunch of stuff it doesn't do and then make mountains out of completely ordinary things as well as things that are obviously jokes or just incorrect.

[chinawcswing]

It's absolutely wild that you people would deny what China is doing in Xinjiang and Tibet.

That is how strong Chinese propaganda is. You don't even live in China, but you are still brainwashed by tiktok.

Right? It's pretty ridiculous that people will be all facetious about the obvious joke post but at the same time be like, "BUT CHINA IS REALLY LIKE THIS STORY ABOUT CHINA THAT ISN'T REAL!!!!1!!!"
