Being banned from .lm is a badge of honor.

Aw Fuck yah, a chucky cheese token

[–] Blackfeathr@lemmy.world 13 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

Also North Korea is what all countries should strive to emulate.

No, seriously, I've seen a tankie on here say that.

[–] wraekscadu@vargar.org 10 points 4 weeks ago

Wdym? Haven't you seen the citizens of the democratic people's republic of Korea cheer and cry when they see their beloved leader Kim Jong Un?

Also, did you know that countless people defect from South Korea to the democratic people's republic of Korea???

/s

The second point is legitimately what someone told me on lemmygrad. No, they explicitly said "today". They were not just talking about the 50s-60s.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 weeks ago

I wonder how many of them think they ally live like a North Korean peasant?

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Also, any source that disagrees with you, biased sources like Wikipedia, are just Fake News!

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml -1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Western media is verifiably corrupt, they're right

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Or so says the propaganda machine of China.

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Lol no dumbass, verifiable facts. Our media has been untrustworthy for longer than either of us has been alive, the only people claiming otherwise are incurable morons or lying.

[–] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Which facts are verifiable and which are fake, how do you tell the difference?

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In this case specifically, by living through Iraq+Afghanistan and not being completely braindead.

First funny thing you've ever said. Congrats comrade, especially considering you don't seem to understand humor or context.

[–] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

More like dope, which is you.

[–] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 11 points 4 weeks ago

I've heard that too

After living and working in the US and now living and working in China (no not a teacher), I can say my life is definitely better in China than it was in the US. And no I'm not a bot or paid CCP stooge. Just a normal person lucky enough to have worked and lived in many places around the world.

There are too many things to mention why China is better besides the obvious like healthcare, social security, infrastructure, green energy, technology, cost of living.

I still don't understand why western media portray China as a communist hell hole, worse than North Korea. Clearly no one bothers to really understand how China works.

And in regards to safety, yes it's one of the safest countries in the world. Actually when you ask Chinese what is good about China, safety is one the core answers. No school shootings, no need for metal detectors at schools. I can leave my electric scooter unlocked with my phone on it, come back an hour later and everything is still there. If I tried that in my birth country, it would be gone by the time I turned around.

Thailand for example is much stricter and run by a military government. When I worked there, one morning we had tanks rolling down the street when the military overthrown the government. And don't say anything about the playboy king or his family.

Anyway, I'll get downvoted but if you are from any of the 62 visa free countries that can visit China, obviously not the US, I recommend you visit and have your eyes and awareness opened. Or just stay in your 'China bad' bubble.

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 weeks ago

Xinjiang is open for tourism, you can literally just visit and ask them yourself dumbass

[–] liuther9@lemmy.world -1 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Why people like china? They are trying to solve global warming problem. They are bringing innovations at scale and low cost. Their state is battling some capitalism schemes, like price inflation of goods and housing. Their billionares are little bitches of the party. Not the other way around. People there generally feel safe, better salaries compared to its neighbours, better medicine etc.

If usa or europe or russia rules the world, humanity is fuked. If china rules then everything will be fine.

[–] Smaile@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

You know other, better countrys exist outside of these 2, right?

[–] bjc@scribe.disroot.org -4 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

i guess uyghurs aren't human.

that tracks with chinese policy.

out of curiousity, how much do you get paid to post on lemmy? is it a decent gig?

[–] mattyroses@lemmy.today 3 points 4 weeks ago

I mean, we all know you're making more at Langley, but at what cost?

Oh, right, your soul.

[–] darthelmet@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

How paranoid do you need to be to think anyone is paying to propagandize to a small collection of grumpy middle aged autists, tech geeks, and trekkies?

Like maybe you think someone's understanding of the world is downstream of that propaganda from elsewhere, but do you really think we have anyone actually getting paid by China or the CIA on this deserted island of the internet?

[–] bjc@scribe.disroot.org -3 points 3 weeks ago

must be morning in china
