Jajajaja me vas a decir a mí de dónde soy. It's amazingly racist that you can't conceive a western communist being pro-China.

Glad I disarmed you by bringing actual meaningful material improvements to the living conditions of people instead of arguing about technicalities, though.

My project is whichever feeds the children. China saved 800 million from poverty in half a century.

Oh so you're a western leftist defeatist without a political project, and you will not support anyone fighting against global imperialism because they're not "pure enough". Classic western "leftist". Your apathy and lack of solidarity empower the ones currently in power, i.e. western imperialism.

It was posted because it was written

All propaganda is written at some point. It being written doesnt make it less atrocity propaganda.

You seem very worried about "fake communists", what's an example of real world socialism to you?

This post wasn't posted by "fake commies", it was posted precisely by libs. It's atrocity propaganda of working conditions in China to make people dislike the country, and I posted my comment because it's patent that you don't care about the living conditions of the working class as much as you care about doing dunks on China because you dislike its form of socialism

Oh, when did you post these prior?

When I see on Lemmy a post about immigrants in Spain (my homeland) dying in summer due to heatstroke being overworked at 39°C, I'll believe you. Until then, shut up, propagandist

So, are you claiming that there weren't protests going on and those weren't answered with massive repression? Were's the ,xaggeration?

Those protests were going on, and massive repression has occurred. Atrocity propaganda can be (and is in fact most effective when it is) real. I didn't claim you lied, I didn't claim the article was false. You misunderstand that the word "propaganda" necessarily means that it's false, it doesn't necessarily imply falseness. Atrocity propaganda simply means you're focusing part of the discourse on crimes of the opposing side, and you're actively engaging this. You literally made it a point to write a comment pointing out to the repression in a post about Iran that wasn't discussing this: you CHOSE to bring it up and deviate the conversation of the post towards crimes of the Iranian government. This is a textbook example of atrocity propaganda.

Again: I don't doubt that you're doing this coming from a good place and with the good intention of supporting progressive comrades in Iran. I'm just reminding you that doing this during an ongoing military buildup against Iran in the context of protests generated by western sanctions killing Iranians through poverty IS atrocity propaganda.

Your original banned comment includes the words: "I'd like to point out that there is indeed quite massive repression going on against protestors in Iran". You're unwilling to accept that this IS, by definition, atrocity propaganda, and it means you're carrying water for the US, however good your intentions are. I tried to discuss this politely with you but you started swearing at me. That's my reason, you got defensive and started insulting me when I started showing the flaws of your political stance.

So, what exactly makes you think that I'm pro Israeli genocide or pro war with Russia

The fact that you're unwilling to maintain a normal conversation on why you're engaging in US-aligned atrocity propaganda.

I dropped the politeness when you started insulting me :) enjoy your compulsory recruitment! Go kill some Ruzzianz, buddy!
