You know how tankies from ML turn up and defend any discussion critical of China and Russia?

Similarly, there are wankies who's default mode is to believe everything the western media says and use their propaganda taking points and deflect criticism.

Lemmyverse is a fun place where both get called out.

Well, it helps that China is not invading any sovereign country or arming and funding genocide in Palestine.

Ah, ok, few evidence of the genocide, noted. Anything about Tibet?
