Time to collect my paycheck I guess 😂

(Also: When the fuck did I ever mention Taiwan? I said “Before becoming a Wumao, learn some Chinese”. Bro is mad 😁)

    hmmm does it make you a tankie to simply not hate China? does it make you a tankie to realize there’s things to like and hate about China like other countries. Also who’s getting mad at CCP, it is CCP. but honestly I’m not sure why we are busy pointing fingers at China while we suffer a fascist takeover in the US, I’m talking specifically about Americans hating on china. I can’t help but feel humor at that lol.but hey I’m just some random, what do I know :3 apparently not what a tankie is I swear to god people just throw that term around all over the place these days

      I don’t hate China, I hate CCP. The CCP ruined my former country so I had to flee.

      Similarly, I hate the republicans and establishment democrats, it doesn’t mean hate the USA, the values of Freedom (that are constantly violated by the government).

      Liking China is not being a tankie.

      赵紫阳 (Zhao Ziyang) loved China was a patriot who seeked reforms, but was purged by the CCP, because he dared to have a peaceful talk with the students. The students at 天安门广场 (Tiananment Square) were patriots who love China and peacefully attended a demonstration seeking reforms and seeked a better future for China. These are people who actually loved China, not people who shill for the government all the time.

      Similarly, liking the USA does not make you a maga/nazi, you can like the ideals of the US, Freedom and Democracy, while being against the US Government.

      I learned a lot from tankies, they’re right in aspects, but china is not democratic nor is it as socialist as it could be, why should we support a regime that doesn’t do anything to push forward communism?
