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

Meanwhile you so far have provided absolutely no sources of atrocities happening in Xinjiang.

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.

Bookmarking these to read, thank you for sharing.

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

Perhaps you should reread what davel posted above.

What could go wrong? (/s)

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.

You’re evidently okay with the atrocities being committed. You excuse the inflicting of suffering and devastation on non Americans for a selfish benefitting of the soldiers committing and abetting them directly, and moreover to the benefit of scumbag elites who are incentivized to continue perpetrating acts of aggression, crimes, and atrocities, placing profits over people as always.

Smedley Butler’s conclusions apply to every American soldier.

Wild conclusion that I’m ignorant of the rightward shift just because I said Bush doesn’t sound like a lefty. Doesn’t help your case that he never was one in the first place.
