Welcome ex-Redditors!

I see calling people "tankies" is the "woke" of the Fediverse.

Everyone know those rules don't apply to the instances with opinions outside of the US state department's approved overton window.

I thought Beehaw defederated from everyone else during the first mass reddit migration in 2023. It's not surprising not a lot of people know about them.
Not us 🫶 I enjoy the Beehaw communities I subscribe to

Wonder if our media that is largely Republican controlled and owned by Western billionaires could maybe have some anti-CCP bias. No, surely not, our newspaper only tell the truth
, China bad always and the West is infallibly morally correct.I've met people in reality who feel the same way as you, and I wanted to ask you something:
Wonder if our media that is largely Republican controlled and owned by Western billionaires could maybe have some anti-CCP bias
Why does that mean that China is good? Like I understand that specific things western media says could be wrong, but we have a hell of a lot of proof about what they've done. So what I don't get is, sure media is owned by billionaires and corrupt, but why does that mean that the exact opposite is what's true? Stalin/Nazi Germany and Hitler/Germany hated each other, constantly lied about each other, but that never meant that either of them were 'good.' So why does it apply here?

You're tripping if you don't think our media has a sinophobic spin on it.
It does, but you're really tripping if you don't think the CCP commits egregious human rights abuses.

Mao is a Maoist, and the CCP claim to be 'the sole heir and successor to Joseph Stalin concerning the correct interpretation of Marxism–Leninism and the ideological leader of world communism,' and I think (hope?) we can agree that Stalinism is not communism.

What's it liking having even /c/conservative think you're a right-wing nutjob? Do you think the entire world is a leftist conspiracy out to get you, personally?

I mean, before Methler's Operation Barbarossa, they were happily dividing the world up between themselves.

If you want nothing farther left than drumpf memes, and also like being a little bit bigoted towards Muslims, then Lemmy.world is gonna be a nice cozy home for you.

It's pretty insane that choosing the default instance is seen as being indicative of your politics

It's 2025, everyone is both doing genocide and is denying genocide all of the time. Unfortunately that word no longer has any meaning.

This is why I'm glad I'm on lemme.ee, and I have the option to choose for myself as they don't really defederate any of the main instances.
As far as it goes, I'm just here for good memes and good conversation. Anytime someone goes into tankie territory, I just go to another thread. Live and let live, even if I disagree (until someone verges into nazi territory).
