I mean I don’t like tankies either but is this user wrong? it’s a little weird to use these flippant (and frankly, derogatory) stereotypes about China when there are so many examples of it around the world
it’s 2025 and we’re in middle of a trade war with china, just recovering from “kung flu” narratives and a platform of fearmongering about china to initiate a fascist takeover of the USA.
maybe we should be mindful of how we talk about China.
If you knowingly buy chinese goods produced with slave labor you’re a shitbag and they’re a shitbag. There can be more than one shitbag in the chain.
how far do you want to take it, though? who made your socks?

don’t know why i’m getting downvoted, i was just trying to make a point. and you countered beautifully.
Mine was too at first. Lemmings be lemmings. It kind of acts like when reddit started doing “vote fuzzing”. I don’t pay them any mind.
nah, i know for sure i’ve pissed some people off with all my shitposting and now they just downvote all my comments lol
