    Yep, someone was being genuinely racist, talking about how Chinese people live in filth and their infrastructure is held up with duct tape, that they eat fake meat and fake tofu, etc. There’s a difference between critique of the CPC and veering off into racism, which is why I reported the comments, and then got banned for it for a day.

    What was wrong with his comment?

      Criticism of the CCP alone is not racist, reporting it as racism is report abuse.

        Americans often launder their racism as political critique. Hexbears are critical of the CCP themselves and they can tell the difference.

        It wasn’t criticism of the CPC alone. This was the comment:

        [Dont need to travel to see that chinese people live in poverty, anything can be done when you are a dictatorship, its corrupt and everything is a scam. Fake meat, fake tofu, tofu drag constructions, 4 billion on a road and all the village got was a gravel path. Where a state teaches kids to hate other nations and disrespect everything for something that happened 80 years ago instead of making sure this does not ever happen again. Where its a national sport to go abroad and harass others. Where the state doesnt care about your stolen things, but if you speak out publicly against it, you will be warned with a kind “take that down, or else”.

        If their electric cars are anything to go by, i dont even want to step on their most modern trains even if they give me trillions of GBP.

        If the regime is supposed to be an example of progress, well guess then we all should go back to european monarchy and imperialism. Europe thrived in the 19th century afterall. Just look at all those rich people living luxurious lifes. All the advancements in science, medicine, transportation, literatur, architectur, social policies, unification of people split appart and more.

        If i were to travel to china they would arrest me on the airport for critisising china and not seeing the CCP as legitimite and supporting taiwan, that being if i would even be allowed to enter the country.

        The USA train system is shit, yes, thats not even on debate. Against that even the russian train system is amazing.

        Also china didnt build its high speed trains on their own. They used EU and japanese tech.

        Japan has the best train system in the entire world, and that without being a supressive, all survaling dictatorship. OP here is comparing shit, scooped from the toilet, to a microwave meal, that got a mediocer plate up. Ofc then in comparison the microwave meal will look better.](lemmy.ml/post/31027125/18999614)

        The majority of the comment is baseless chauvanism of Chinese people themselves, not their government, such as when they say that the “national sport is to harrass other nations” or that “they eat fake tofu, fake mear, etc.”

    When George W Bush says we’re invading a country for their freedom, do you believe him because that’s the reason he wrote down and he’s in a position of authority?

  i dont agree anarchists fit in, i love it from the outside cause theres some great memes and yall can be very funny, but then a lot of people start defending governments guilty of subjugation and shit.

    It’s a Left Unity space, plus historically Anarchists and Marxists work together more often than not. The Anarchists on Hexbear can speak for why they enjoy it.

  doesn’t tolerate

  Yeah sounds like a good option for those of us looking to move to the exact opposite of lemm.ee then

    That’s why I said at the end that it’s a very different instance than lemm.ee. I was pushing against the idea that Hexbear is filled with the worst types of people, which is wrong.
