I mean… I kinda get it, but nowadays it’s starting to get absurd.
(EDIT: This was supposed to be a “blow air out my nose and get on with my life” meme…)
There really is no justification to simp for any country/government. They are all pretty terrible and genocidal.

Inside me are two wolves
One thinks Chinese tech is cool and innovative
The other hates fascist dictatorships
*both of the wolves are gay
You may or may not think China is “authoritarian” but how on earth are they fascist?
Tradition is big. E.g TCM crap over science
You cannot disagree with the state
Stokes fear and hatred of outsiders
Blames social frustrations on those outsiders
Appeals to restore past glory
Han ethnic supremacy
You could go through all of Eco’s points and apply them to China pretty fittingly.
This is all some seriously internalized US propaganda.
So if you post on social media “I think Dictator Xi should be removed from office and we should have real elections again” nothing will happen?
I feel like something happens if you post that in China that you don’t want to talk about.
What happens? Do you have any evidence of what happens besides your imagination?
We don’t have to imagine because they do that already.
This is exactly the propaganda I’m referring to. I’m sure some people are being detained unjustly. I’m also very sure that number, whether per capita or in raw headcount, is a lot lower than in the US.
Let’s be honest: the only reason for this is the oppressive chinese government, dead stop
Don’t forget things like China blatantly stealing IP fro the west.
And rich Chinese buying up land in western countries.
And rich Chinese students going to universities in the west and then buying/cheating their way through their degree.
And (this might come under your point) destroying domestic industries of western countries by flooding the market with cheap inferior products.
I literally just watched a video essay about The Thing and this made me laugh.
I literally just lost some language and mathematics by reading your comment.
Care to elaborate?
Only if you elaborate on how a video is different from a video essay.
As a Canadian: fuck American products. Y’all want a trade war with us, fuck your shit.
All that to say, it’s understandable to be angry at and suspicious of products made by antagonistic nations.
As a Venezuelan,Yeah!! fuck both, the US and China! 🔥🔥
As an American, i’m forced to concur. I wish it weren’t so.
Life in Canada is about to get super hard. Seriously fuck the US.
Canada exists because the united states exist. You produce no products of mention. Geographically, canada is a research colony. US is still a slave colony.
