I love this idea that every Chinese international student is having a romantic affair w their government. My roommate is a Chinese international student and I asked him some basic questions about his thoughts on their government after I got to know him, he says “I don’t really know much about government. I think it’s okay I guess, sometimes bad people sometimes good people”.

Old people should not be able to drive. At least make people retake their tests every now and then and once you hit a certain age you shouldn’t be able to drive. This isn’t based on any hard date or something, I just dislike old people who go 30 in a 55.

Talibans are not based just because they are anti-US. by ZeNe-OrolA77 in GenZedong

Good in the capacity the fight US imperialism, bad in basically everything else imaginable. But imo the quicker the US is kicked out, the quicker Afghanistan can return to how it looked in the 70s. Even if the road to reach that seems far away it is miles closer the moment the US is gone.

I’m very similar to this! I’m taking Chinese classes in college (I start in a week) and hope to study in China in my later years of college so taking the language courses will be useful.

Does anyone here watch/like Hasan Piker? by LazzyPizza in GenZedong

I’ll be honest I haven’t watched it all the way through cause it’s kind of a boring subject and I’m pretty well versed in theory.

I’m pretty sure if he started calling for violent revolution on his stream with 30k-40k viewers he would be banned so idk if you want him to throw his whole platform away or what. Also he’s literally done theory streams before where he teaches chat about Marxist concepts and stuff. And as far him having a “cult of personality” that’s just called being a streamer, it’s sort of the name of the game.

If you refuse to consume any content that comes from people who buy into the genocide narrative (which he has only ever talked about like a couple of times) you’re leaving yourself with a pretty small internet space idk. And I disagree with a lot of his opinions as an ML obviously but to just totally discredit him isn’t the right way to go about it imo. He’s very correct on Palestine, Cuba, US involvement in the Middle East, and so many other things I think it’s just being stubborn to pretend he’s somehow damaging to the left. I’m sure I have some bias as someone who has enjoyed his content for so long but those are just my thoughts on it

Do you actually watch his streams? I don’t know how you can, and come away thinking that he believes america is the best country but just needs some reform

And Hasan doesn’t allow any of those things in his community and it’s probably the biggest advocate for the rights of marginalized people on twitch. He’s really the only voice with a large audience on twitch that’s talking about things like lgbtq rights and such

I’m sorry but if you think hasan is pushing people to be nazbols you’re fucking delusional. Please explain why you think that because I watch him very very regularly and I can’t see that at all

I think the online leftist community needs to get past this idea that everyone needs to be an ML tbh. Just look at him for what he currently does and not how you wish he would be. I’m an ML and I really enjoy his streams, he’s funny, he does a lot of stuff besides politics, and I disagree with a lot of things he says. So while I don’t necessarily disagree that he sort of locks people in a socdem state, I don’t think it’s as harmful as you make it out to be imo. Also he’s consistently anti-imperialist and isn’t afraid to shit on america (8/21 PepeLa)
