Yeah I'm in the US, it's a fucking shithole, I don't need to read burger opinions online too
awww, where you gonna go instead? To another Western country?
not even sure what you're trying to say here, when did I say I was leaving? I certainly don't have the money for that, you people are so fucking divorced from reality
really? You don't have a thousand dollars to move to Vietnam or the few other communist countries? They're all very cheap to immigrate to, you know.
Why would I go there? If I'm already in the evil empire I might as well try to wreck as much shit as I can while I'm here.
by posting shit online and have your data harvested so they'll know what you plan on doing before you even "wreck shit"? every second you spend in the US is more money for the state lol
Thought you were a commie, don't you wanna go to communist countries and do your part? :(
be the change you wanna see comrade
"I envy you. You North Americans are very lucky. You are fighting the most important fight of all. You live in the belly of the beast."
he dead
Ik :'(
shame that all your communist figureheads are dead people or western youtubers...
They don't fucking need me, it's not 'doing your part' to show up to where the work is already done.
I'm stuck here watching the american empire fall apart from the inside.
how defeatist of you, comrade.
Yes, revolutionary defeatism is a thing, death to america
lmao, death to america? comrade you're actively helping america. you're no terrorist, you're not going to bomb or destroy infrastructure. you're just another cog in the grand machine of capitalism, and you secretly love it.
True commies travel to Communist States and lend their western hands.
I'm not going to talk about the shit I get up to with some dumbass who spends their free time being a pro-nato narc about people posting online.
your account is three years old, comrade.
we both know you don't get up to much.
glass houses goat moderating an entire sublemmy fully of screenshots with zero engagement. You're either on payroll or a complete no-lifer
zero engagement? bruh my communities are the biggest in sjw lol
and it's a sunday :3
This really raises the question of why we ever whitelisted this shithole- if the racist anticommunism subreddit is the biggest part why even bother
Meanwhileongrad isn't racist; I make sure of that.
However, the content inside of it, the tankie content, is unfortunately racist, particularly to Muslims and Indians.
This is literally the image for the subreddit you moderate:

https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/d882a687-b797-490e-9245-7823cb65abb2.png?format=webpPlease direct me to 'tankie content' that is racist, I've seen pretty much nothing.
you have an issue with xinnie the pooh?
yeah, it's very of you
Aw nice, American Cartoon Family Guy!
How is it racist, comrade?
I will direct you to the #1 thread on the subreddit you moderate: https://hexbear.net/post/497665
aw cool, cool! yeah, i saw that post before I removed it.
Too bad that the Xinnie the Pooh originated from Chinese dissidents who aren't happy with their government lol. kinda throws a whole wrench in that "ITS RACIST" dealio.
No, it really doesn't.
I can't wait until either you defederate us or we defederate you
aw no! it doesn't? how's that one work, comrade?
First off the whole narrative about Winnie the Pooh being banned is asinine, and you lot just use it as thinly-veiled excuse to tint your enemies nonwhite colors. Where it came from originally is immaterial
It is banned, my comrade.
It originated from Chinese people about their government. They weren't making the post to be racist to themselves lol

Leaving the url in full as it should be self explanatory
aw cool! they have a little theme park!
still banned the memes and movies tho lol
No. One movie didn't receive screening approval. China limits import for screening of foreign films to 34 a year. I'm not talking Hollywood films, I'm talking all foreign films. The Christoper Robin movie in 2018 didn't make the cut after it had a disappointing box office and critical reception in Western markets. The IP still remains popular in China because Winnie's cute.
Yes. The memes associating President Xi with Winnie are banned. You won't find them on Weibo, for example, where they'll be likely taken down. Weibo strictly monitors political discourse online and routinely removes content that is aggressively polarising, especially around major political events like the Two Sessions. This is partially at the behest of the government and partially a responsibility towards its userbase.
Some provocative political content is monitored and censored, and we've always known that, however, Winnie is not, as you originally said. This is a bald faced orientalist lie and it shows how hollow it is, seeing how quickly you had to abandon it in the face of readily available English language evidence.
oh man limiting foreign media in your country, that totally isn't censorship or propaganda! definitely not!
Great! Glad we came to the conclusion that China is authoritarian. just you wait, any minute now the US will ban memes about its government... annnny minute now. yep...
"Trade quotas are only evil when non-western countries use them" "Online moderation of politically divisive and inflammatory material is only authoritarian when non-western countries do it"
I'm sure you were in tears when Jan 6 destroyed American democracy and cheering when the HK parliament was stormed by the same reactionary elements. Head-ass shitlib.
i didn't care for either of those, not my country, not my concern.
Fact remains, find me the US government banning memes about themselves. You won't lol
Taking a break from this to eat dinner. I'll draft something up after that, since, yes, the USA does ban memes. Why do you think r/cth was removed, precipitating us to move to Hexbear? 'Slaveowners should be killed' meme is basically about the USA.
oh SHIT. THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT SPECIFICALLY TARGETTED some lame internet shitposting community? wow, you guys sound powerful!
G "China banned Winnie"
R "No they didn't and here's evidence"
G "Oh I'll choose to ignore that"
G "The USA doesn't censor online political speech"
R "Yes they do and here's a directly relevant example to our discussion from the self proclaimed 'front page of the internet'"
G "Oh you're just a shit posting community that doesn't count"
You completely cave from every point in the face of scrutiny. Do you have any shame? You retreat every time and just throw out another glib line. Thanks for the thought dulling discussions mate.
Don't feed the trolls, they're just trying to waste your time.
Yeh I know, thanks for the reminder though. I'm keeping in mind the friends following along at home, who may be undecided about this kind of stuff, and trying to put forward a relatively sourced, evidential argument for them, not necessarily goat. I myself was swayed by lurking on forums like this. I'm not nearly as good as other comrades but it's honest work.
bruh i linked evidence that they do ban winnie, you even admitted that they ban winnie the pooh memes lol
lmao, do you legitimately, actually believe that the US fucking government ordered the ban on your lil' internet forum?
Oh fuck it is that guy!
