When I see these pro-China pieces, I remember that Chinese citizens can’t speak freely, exercise political will, or breathe clean air. As well as China’s actions towards the annexation/militarization of surrounding waters, erasure of Tibetan and Uyghuar cultures, and propagation of destabilizing online propaganda.
All true. They have their own version of this though.
“When I see pro American pieces, I remember that their citizens are obese and undereducated, or subjugated by centuries old race caste system and incarcerated at very high rates. Their schools are failing, their cities are riddled with crime, their infrastructure is crumbling, half of them hate the other half, and they wield imperial control around the world with their military, killing a million Iraqis to secure their oil.”
I’m sure they’d love to come live in the YS though.
Also all true, sadly. I’m so lucky to be European, although it’s not paradise here, either. But still…
After everything Europe did in the 20th century I think y’all best just keep quiet for about a century. “Not paradise…” Jesus.
Fuck right off. Seriously, fuck off. It’s none of our faults, everyone involved is fucking dead or certainly not on Lemmy.
You can take your misdirected feelings and shove them right up your stupid ass.
I don’t think I get your point

Chinese citizens can breathe clean air. Japan is only a 4 hour flight away

That’s an unusual way to spell Taiwan, but sure?

Taiwan air is not that good, actually. It has heavy industry, so AQI of 100 days happen often
