He 100% did. In return for not releasing the evidence and basically scrubbing it’s from the history books. He got some of his Great Society legislation passed. Which they promptly gutted and rendered useless. Because fascists are remorseless sociopaths.
FDR waved prosecution in exchange for the fascist senators involved. Voting for his legislation.
Why would I throw more Pearls Before swine with a clown shoes bad faith response like that? Your participating in a fallacy again. Attacking the messenger. Not what was said. And funny his reporting was good enough for everyone when he was calling out the United States. Just suddenly he loses all credibility when it’s your team. Odd how that works lol.
And quite literally in the video they address what you say. The lack of victims crying out doesn’t mean there’s no victims. China won’t let them make a statement or talk to the public. That’s literally the problem. And you know it.
But I’m going to handle you the same way I handle bad faith economic liberals. Bye Felecia!
I didn’t make those claims. Sterilization et all. You debunked nothing. Yes some are making fantastic claims with no proof. All I did was state that China was imprisoning many and oppressing them along with other groups. And I provided links to actual people you deny existence of who have been personally impacted. It’s a hypocritical and tone deaf behavior. But also unsurprising.
Sad. You can’t address what was said. You don’t even have an interest in looking into it. Hypocritically squealing about propaganda. While spouting it. There’s plenty to criticize the United States on. A lot of the same things you can criticize China on. Well not you. People who thank you critically and engage in good faith however.
It’s literally in a video you refused to watch. Actual families confronting a CCP government official about the imprisonment of their loved ones. Though I’m sure you will just hand wave that all away and claim they were manufactured by the cia. Because you’re not here debating anything in good faith.
And Hell while we’re at it. Since you chuckleheads are blocked by the China you defend so much. Go read up on Naomi Wu she was practically an unofficial brand ambassador for creality in Shenzhen. A truly fascinating and wonderful person with a real passion for technology. And creativity. Who made the sin of talking about her life. And how the CCPs bone headed policies had impacted her. My words not hers. She spoke very differentially and sparingly about the idiotic policies. Many of which even the CCP have distance themselves from such as the one child policy. But they are so insecure and fragile that her even talking about her early childhood was too much for them to take.
The true irony is that she is the very sort of person they should be promoting, elevating to prove that they changed from those days and those policies. That they were the sort of people leninists always defend them as. Funny they didn’t. Instead threatening her and her loved ones.
I tend not to bring her up by name. Because she is not an activist and just wants to try to live her life. And I respect that. But it’s relatively safe here as I said since you all are blocked in China. It likely won’t get back in a negative way. And I’m sure you’ll just hand wave it away as somehow being more CIA psyops. Sounding as crazy as the local magats conspiracy theories.
Oh believe me I have. Medhi Hasan is just a quick easy link to see if you were being genuine or not. Not. One of my favorite YouTubers lived in shenzhen. She doesn’t post anymore. Because she and her partner who happens to be a trans Uyghur we’re physically threatened and called out by the government for mild criticisms. Which is extremely sad since she was very good representation for people in China in general. And would have shown that the government of China isn’t as bigoted and racist as it obviously is had they simply not been so insecure that they couldn’t take such mild criticism.
Oh by the way congratulations on your fallacy. Attacking the messenger. You didn’t refute anything from the segment. I mean I would have been surprised. Let me tell you floored if you had. But we know better than that.
Authoritarian governments whether they’re western or not. Are no friend of the proletariat/people.
It’s like fighting out about home alone 3. And all the movies after that.
None of them had the same actor playing the lead role despite them all being the same character. Each one was basically the same story over and over with a few different things sandwiched inside.
The first was the icon. 2 was serviceable. If you were the right age for it, likely a classic just for nostalgia alone. That and the tragic story why the lead actor couldn’t have returned for 3 regardless. The most noteworthy feature of 3 was that Jack Black was in it. For maybe 10 minutes as a bully? One of “the nasties”.
2 years before he did The Neverending Story part 3. Two parts after that story should have ended unfortunately
Interesting. Will have to take a look at it later. I currently use Jellyfin and don’t have many issues. The only thing that might be a pain point is tuner support. I didn’t see anything mentioned. But looks nice otherwise. And intrigued to see its largely in Go.
Yes was going to say it would have had to have been designed by generative AI to have five fingers and a thumb. LOL
Money is power. Power corrupts. No exceptions. They get into the situation because they can no longer identify and understand their fellow man. There are no good billionaires. There aren’t any any good millionaires. And we should all do them a favor. And never allow them to achieve that status of hoarding.
Plenty of us tried that. We weren’t the ones that turned it into a political Battlefield. I didn’t start out blocking their communities and servers. I’m a pragmatist. Actually largely against people who are blindly ideological regardless of the ideology. Even if I tend to personally identify with the anarchist Spectrum.
Hell lemmygrad and hexbear weren’t banned because of their politics. They were banned because of their behavior. Anyone who behaved like so many of them did should have been banned regardless of politics. Lemmy.world was de-federated by certain servers for far far less.
And if you want to exist in a bubble. Then by all means please do. But don’t admonish other people for not doing so. Ignoring politics and being ignorant of politics is in large part how so many of the problems we have today were created. People left alone at the levers of power who should never have had any business. All because people were content and ignorant.
As does ml. Worse even. But the fact that both do is a defense of neither. So I’m not sure why you even bring it up. Be better. World isn’t tied to any particular political ideology. Ml 100% is. And if you mention absolute documented facts. You can and will be banned from there. Because the facts go against the narratives. World has its problems. But I haven’t seen anything approaching that yet.
No more than he was by life in the 1930s and 40s. He watched the uncovering of the first Republican/oligarch coup plot. Then watched the man they plotted to assassinate wheel and deal with them to get legislation passed. Instead of trying and hanging them all.
Woody, a socialist, supported the Leninist revolutions. Only to watch their natural evolution. Stalin helping Hitler invade Poland. As well as exterminating ethnic polish in their own borders. Exterminating their own people etc. And all the atrocities of other individual vanguard parties.
He would be disappointed, but not surprised.
Boiler plate comment
Marxist Leninist aren’t communists. Or they wouldn’t be Marxist Leninist. They do however like to cosplay as communists. Often naming things that aren’t communist Communist. While I think the general proletariat were all aspirationally communist. Their leaders and the Vanguard party most certainly were not.
He at least got Social Security and a few other things passed. Though they set to work immediately gutting it all. And this was before the worst of world war ii. But they didn’t learn from that and they haven’t learned since.
