Accusing a guy from the most capitalist country on the planet of being a communist lmao.
Yeah, but have you considered that he is asian, and thus probably a secret communist?
His name is suspiciously oriental, and he is the CEO of the evil Chinese app
Tom Cotton is definitely that guy that asks "No but really, where are you actually from?"
Singapore is a neo liberal hellhole, but they have social housing and medicine which makes them literally Stalin.
Yeah lol, i grew up there back in the 2000´s and its the poster child for neoliberalism
The part where he kept asking him about what happened at Tianemen Square had me cackling
A senator from the country that's actively abetting and supporting genocide and fascism having the unmitigated gall to keep saying that
Just pure 
Are these people really unable to show some professionalism, or at least act like well adjusted adults?
If they acted like professional well adjusted adults they'd get 10% of thenvote from the hooting chuds that make up their districts
: “So are ya Chai-nese or Japanese?”
Funny how you can hear words sometimes
KOTH has so many amazing quotables
"NO HE AIN'T... He's Laotian. Ain't ya Mr. Kahn?"
Ironically, his name is Cotton. And it's kinda funny how this maniac character turned out to not be racist, so much as he just hates Japanese nationals for personal reasons.
I mean, he is kind of racist considering he treats Khan like a valet after that
Mr. Khan, I'll have a Mai Tai
He's just not that kind of racist
What ocean?
“I didn’t ask what kind of Chinese you are, just answer the question.”
is this from that one hearing from like two years ago or is this a new hearing where they're doing the same shit?
EDIT: nope, googled it. it's round 2 
New one yes
I can't believe this stupidity is happening again....
Why are white people like this
I absolutely love how congress is so cringe on these things I'll find myself accidentally rooting for a CEO.
Yea I think they were talking to Zuckerberg at some point and I tuned in and some chid was just yelling over and over again "yes or no will you personally compensate everybody who lost somebody because of your site"
And I was rooting for zuck to tell them "no fuck off are you stupid"
Same thing with them repeatedly asking "do you agree the internet is a dangerous place for children" and if he started a response with anything other than yes they'd just yell over him. They asked him why he wouldn't answer the question directly and he was like "I'm not going to say on congressional record that the internet is dangerous for all children because you're going to try to use that to justify banning children from the internet"
How are politicians so dogshit it makes the literal bad guys of society seem repeatable and reasonable
This is the bipartisanship liberals are asking for.
Both Cotton and Pelosi's brain worms working in a hive mind thinking the Chinese are behind everything they don't like.
CPC is doing more for Yankistani unity than any actual American. Literally without lifting a finger or spending a cent.
thinking the Chinese are behind everything they don't like.
Lazy KKKrakas are just recycling Tsarist era antisemitism. At least come up with new material smh.
I remember when people feared Tom Cotton would be the "smart fascist." I don't really see it. He's just as annoyingly unhinged as all the others.
There isn’t smart fascism.
Hitler was a moron. He thought he could win the war in 1945 still.
Tojo was a moron, he thought he could prevent war by going to war.
Mussolini was a moron, he thought he could hang upside down like a bat and live.
Franco was a moron, he thought his hairline would fool us.
Blanco was a moron, he thought he could go to space without a helmet and live.
"and where in China is that"
It would be so cool if the CPC had like, affiliate membership. Not that you could vote or anything, just that they let you be an affiliate member if you’re a commie. You get a little card that says you’re a CPC member, I’d do that in a heartbeat.
It’s actually quite difficult to join the CPC. You need recommendation letters and all that. They usually pull from high school and university students who excelled academically.
I have friends in the CPC and for me it’s totally not worth it, unless you like the perks of being a party member (networking/connections, better promotion opportunities in SOE etc.).
Rest assured, you will not be discussing socialist theories with your comrades. My friends told me the regular meeting is just bunch of people talking about their “personal development”, what challenges they are facing and how they encourage each other to solve it (mostly about jobs, finances, and other issues). This is in Shanghai by the way, so a fairly middle class demographic, it could be run quite differently in rural townships and villages though, I’m sure there’s more emphasis in solving local issues etc.
Xi please strengthen the ideological development of cadres in Shanghai
Yeah, speaking as an outsider my impression is that the CPC in Shanghai is full of folks who're liberals but pragmatically letting them into the CPC and being nerd failures is better than letting them turncoat for some liberal or western group.
Theoretically being a member of your local communist party would have the same effect
Becomes an affiliate member. Gets purged. :C
"Sooooo....... Have you ever been...."
Shou Zi Chew confirmed member of Hamas.
Remember when Western countries had tests to see if people were secretly loyal to other countries or religions? I don't know why the thought occurred to me; entirely a coincident.
I smoke meth and I’m smarter than this motherfucker.
do you think tik tok is regretting getting a ethnic chinese ceo, they should have just went with some white guy as a figurehead
They'd probably try to yank his face off like it was a Scooby-Doo villain's mask
Code pink has white people as their figureheads but that doesn't change the fact that it is accused of being a Chinese fifth column organization
Am I giving them too much credit or is the point of asking questions like this to make sound bites for fundraising and reelection? I don't see constituencies waiting to hear responses to these asinine questions when they've already made up their minds.
At this point, I'd rather replace the representative Chew, tell Tom Cotton and the Senate to fuck their mothers, and repeat the Michael Parenti quote:
“During the cold war, the anticommunist ideological framework could transform any data about existing communist societies into hostile evidence. If the Soviets refused to negotiate a point, they were intransigent and belligerent; if they appeared willing to make concessions, this was but a skillful ploy to put us off our guard. By opposing arms limitations, they would have demonstrated their aggressive intent; but when in fact they supported most armament treaties, it was because they were mendacious and manipulative. If the churches in the USSR were empty, this demonstrated that religion was suppressed; but if the churches were full, this meant the people were rejecting the regime's atheistic ideology. If the workers went on strike (as happened on infrequent occasions), this was evidence of their alienation from the collectivist system; if they didn't go on strike, this was because they were intimidated and lacked freedom. A scarcity of consumer goods demonstrated the failure of the economic system; an improvement in consumer supplies meant only that the leaders were attempting to placate a restive population and so maintain a firmer hold over them.
If communists in the United States played an important role struggling for the rights of workers, the poor, African-Americans, women, and others, this was only their guileful way of gathering support among disfranchised groups and gaining power for themselves. How one gained power by fighting for the rights of powerless groups was never explained. What we are dealing with is a nonfalsifiable orthodoxy, so assiduously marketed by the ruling interests that it affected people across the entire political spectrum.”
"That may be so, but have you considered that I am a racist?" 
Lmao this guy was probably sick of their shit about 10 mins in
Fuck Tom Cotton
No thanks. Can we compromise and just have him face the wall tho?
We need to purge anyone born before 1990 from that place. Cold war 
is the only thing they can do.
