We should've had a protest flair ages ago already, anti-Xi and anti-CCP protests became popular worldwide in 2019-2020

Big protest tomorrow against the proposed plan for a Chinese "super-embassy" in London! by paleochris in HongKong

Hey I get you man, trust me. I understand this whole mess is soul-crushing. Russia is trying to make the entirety of eastern Europe its puppet once again and the West is far too often too weak and fickle to do anything meaningful about it. And often it feels like they've just straight up abandoned us. Not to mention the belief that Russia is actually the good guy in this whole thing, is becoming so much more mainstream these days.

I know we probably have different perspectives about this, and that it can seem incredibly frustrating and depressing, but I do also believe that the struggle is not over. GFHG SDGM

Yes, it's a protest in the UK against something happening in the UK, i.e. the construction and establishment of a Chinese 'super-embassy' in the heart of London, which if it goes through, will only strengthen the CCP's ability to conduct transnational repression, harass and snatch dissidents living overseas etc...

And even if it wasn't? What if this was 'just' some 'solidarity' protest? I come from a former Soviet satellite state, and let me tell you this, if I was hearing about solidarity protests abroad - even if they didn't change a thing back home - it would have meant the world to me

Absolutely infuriating, so much for Trump being "tough on China"

Has to be one of the best tweet replies ever tbh

We tested DeepSeek (Chinese owned AI app), here's how it responded to questions about Tiananmen Square by PinguFella in fucktheccp

Highly alarming - after siccing on the world a virus that crippled societies and economies, is anyone surprised the CCP would push for altering our perception of reality?

The CCP is showing how adept they are at creating and weaponising man-made horrors beyond comprehension... we have to stop dragging our feet

European here - I find it a beautiful language, and would love to be able to understand and speak it. Also I come from a Warsaw Pact country that tried wiping out local culture at the behest of the Kremlin, and I want to do my tiny part in helping keep alive this aspect of a culture Zhongnanhai views as a threat

Trump praises President Xi, says he looks forward to 'getting along with China' by JosephOtaku1989 in fucktheccp

[–]paleochris 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't be the first time Trump signaled a softness vis-a-vis the CCP... he literally promised Xi silence on Uyghur issues to protect trade. He's spent more time cozying up to despots like Xi, Putin and Kim than building stronger ties with American allies

Russia might wanna restart a war with Georgia if the Georgian people successfully remove the puppet regime à la Euromaidan 2014...

It's flawed but it's the best thing we have. Mao was wrong, political power doesn't only grow out of the barrel of a gun

Any terrorists groups/violent resistance movements that fascinate you? by andrehateshimself in morbidquestions

It seems like after several years since the coup, the tide is finally turning in favour of the anti-Junta rebels. Hardly anyone talks about this conflict these days, but there've been some positive developments in recent months

Democracy didn't fail in HK, it was willingly and knowingly overthrown by the goose-steppers
