Comment on Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse

  This is literally what was removed and the entire argument/question. Do you think people are okay targets if in wrong country, and it’s yes.

  So you think it’s legal to expressly target civilians?

  Again it was if it’s a legal order is it okay for them to kill people or civilians and you said yes. But now that you see it you’re not too no I totally meant not if being specifically targeted, but it’s fine if they’re collateral

  Like fuck how does this keep happening, especially from the ones calling ml a shit hole

    I think we have a misunderstanding. I meant legal by international law. It is not legal by international law to target civilians. So no, I do not think it’s okay to target civilians, full stop.

    But yes this is very much how .ml feels. Twisting words to achieve some sort of propaganda win. Excellent job there.

      Yes we have a misunderstanding, but not the definition of law.

      But yes this is very much how .ml feels. Twisting words to achieve some sort of propaganda win. Excellent job there.

      Again not twisting any words. This is why most think ml does censorship. They come in, say terrible things and when comment removed or banned call foul.

      This is what a 10+ comment deep thread and you still can’t admit why anyone would think it was poor wording

        In that specific case I was banned for words I didn’t say. Same technique you are trying here, to ask me if legal attacks should be allowed and then changing the definition of legal. And there are plenty of mods for just saying something which the CCCP doesn’t like:

        Okay… From the last couple days.

        Removed Comment He’s also either blackmailed or employed by china (multiple visits including his honeymoon, where he spent the night not with his wife but in the room with a number of school kids that he also brought with him… On his honeymoon) by NihilsineNefas @slrpnk.net reason: Misinformation

        mod Removed Comment There are lots of countries, including all the western countries where fewer people answered affirmatively to that question, where people are far more free to express their opinions than in China, though. The most obvious reason being that the majority of the world’s countries do not have a Great Firewall. This is what shows that there is a bias in the Chinese answers – or possibly a bias the other way in the western ones, but either way it means the results are not meaningfully comparable. edit: > What’s happening is that working class speech is relatively free, while capitalist and corporate speech is not. That’s why the vast majority say they have freedom of speech, while we know the state censors private, capitalist speech. “I don’t want to work the 996 work week” is the epitome of working class speech, whereas supporting it is corporate speech. China chose to censor it. by turdas @suppo.fi reason: misinformation 1 score Show in context realitista You to Fediverse@lemmy.world · Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse · 17m ago
