Lol. Lmao, even. You’ve shared debunked propaganda that doesn’t cite any proper sources. I’ll refer you to Dessalines’s thread about what actually happened in Tiananmen.

Though while we’re here, let’s address Tibet, shall we?

First, the people of Tibet lived as serfs doing forced labor for the Dalai Lama and other elites. https://www.historicly.net/p/tibet-china-and-the-violent-reaction https://redsails.org/friendly-feudalism/

In the second one, they also go further into the history and abuse serfs, peasants, and lower-class monks endured, and has the following:

Whatever wrongs and new oppressions introduced by the Chinese after 1959, they did abolish slavery and the Tibetan serfdom system of unpaid labor. They eliminated the many crushing taxes, started work projects, and greatly reduced unemployment and beggary. They established secular schools, thereby breaking the educational monopoly of the monasteries. And they constructed running water and electrical systems in Lhasa.

Heinrich Harrer (later revealed to have been a sergeant in Hitler’s SS) wrote a bestseller about his experiences in Tibet that was made into a popular Hollywood movie. He reported that the Tibetans who resisted the Chinese “were predominantly nobles, semi-nobles and lamas; they were punished by being made to perform the lowliest tasks, such as laboring on roads and bridges. They were further humiliated by being made to clean up the city before the tourists arrived.” They also had to live in a camp originally reserved for beggars and vagrants — all of which Harrer treats as sure evidence of the dreadful nature of the Chinese occupation.

The PRC liberated Tibet, abolished slavery and serfdom, and built modern infrastructure. Tibetans are far better off now than they were then. Those who resisted this were nobles and reactionaries.

After he was overthrown, the Dalai Lama also received money from the CIA to train guerillas. https://web.archive.org/web/20251104164452/https://www.nytimes.com/1998/10/02/world/world-news-briefs-dalai-lama-group-says-it-got-money-from-cia.html

It most certainly shows.

If anything, done by people like them. A ML user posted this in ML itself, some of the folks from other instances come in with bad faith and/or bullcrap arguments, other ML users come in to defend and debunk, and we’re apparently the ones brigading in our own space.

I’d like to a few questions related to your personal experience.

First, what timeframe are you referencing? Second, what Soviet Republic or Warsaw Pact member nation were you living in?

A Pakistani Diplomat Saw none of that. You believe propaganda of the CIA. https://www.thenews.com.pk/latest/422970-pakistani-diplomat-narrates-visit-to-chinas-xinjiang

Key part: To yet another question, she said, “I did not find any instance of forced labor or cultural and religious repression. The imams we met at the mosques and the students and teachers at the Xinjiang Islamic Institute told us that they enjoy freedom in practicing Islam and that the Chinese government extends support for maintenance of mosques all over Xinjiang.

I learned that there are over 30,000 mosques all over Xinjiang that form part of the religious life of the people there.”

Dan Cohen also refutes it here: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Hjurb61SZgk

Moreover, here’s a Colonel (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=00Cvx0R8iDo) admitting the USA actively tries to foment unrest in Xinjiang.

A report out of Italy also begs to differ. It also discusses to some extent on what China actually has done. https://idi-international.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/New-Report.pdf

Why don’t we also see from the people that actually live there? https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkbOIKUddMBtp0_xEFqn4zey48kkgJq5w

Meanwhile, your sources of propaganda of the ‘Uighur Genocide’ are…?

The 996 work practices do still continue and are just an extreme example of how terrible working conditions are across China.

We all know why the world dislikes China too, we haven’t forgotten China’s own ongoing genocide against its Uyghur people.

After seeing the other drivel you’ve spewed, it’s no surprise you believe that bullshit propaganda. You really are trashy.

What’s your favorite flavor of boot? You seem to like those a lot.

Perhaps you should reread what davel posted above.

I hadn’t known this about how the Soviets treated Nazis before and after the war. It’s good to learn this and I really enjoy seeing your analysis and rebuttals.

At no point has eldavi broken it into a “false dichotomy”. eldavi is 100% correct that in liberal countries the judicial systems operate at the behest of the elites. That corruption can be addressed. As for fighting that corruption, you have another in this thread laying out the facts about who actually is fighting corruption and how.

There is a Ukraine community, but such a black-and-white perception of how Ukraine is discussed on Lemmy.ml does tell me all I need to know.

What do you mean by true info and limited how so?

I’m definitely framing it that way and I was mainly looking to use insight from others in addition to the research I’m doing.

I wasn’t aware that the rivalry could be so nasty between all three.

Thanks for your input.

Noted, thank you for that insight.

I’m going to consider the Pixel Tablet and GrapheneOS as well.

I saw DivestOS was discontinued and that was disappointing, I had used some of its apps. Thanks for your perspective on their proprietary cloud and programs, I’ll keep that in mind

I see.

And then those people go on to commit and abet pillaging and atrocities worldwide. You are defending killing people. There always is a choice, and the fact is that things can be changed for the better. A better world is possible.

That doesn’t change the fact you support all the above.
