But all the "communists" on Lemmy tell me that China is so much better than everywhere else.
We are starting to see that change thankfully.
And I truly hope that change comes.
I thought I had just blocked enough instances and communities that they had finally disappeared 😂
Unfortunately they still wander out to say things like Xinjiang is no worse than a regular US workweek.
I wnjoy arguing with them its a game of how quickly u can get banned by posting links to reputable news sources disproving them. But yeah i dobt block em and the numbers are decreasing.
You misspeled government agents
Thanks Taipei Times, very cool
How is it every time one of these lists comes out, they always slip religious oppression in as some deplorable act?
"Oh god no, tell me they're not oppressing the catholics! Oh who will sexually assault our children now???"
It kinda undermines the gravity of the truly heinous things they're doing when you include some deeply based & well deserved comeuppance for the rapist religious zealots in their country.
Fuck the CCP for so many, many reasons, but I cant blame them for wanting the catholics to lose their social influence. I know, it's not just the catholics, but for fucks sake can we stop veiling their crimes against humanity with the drapings of religious oppression? What they're doing is awful on its own merits, we don't have to be dogwhistled into thinking it's bad just because religious oppression is a dumb social taboo.
It so happens that right to religious freedom is a human right.
