When having to admit their fault the moderator started looking for arbitrary reasons to ban me. Such as not using the exact terminology of the Amnesty report. Which does not call it genocide.
The moderator is also watching user votes, and calling out people not voting with him.
Do you think China is imperialist?
Wtf is this, a tankie purity test? With respect to Myanmar, yes. But in general, much less so than any other superpower. They have used economic imperialism quite a bit, as have all economic superpowers, but that’s quite different compared to literally colonizing countries like nearly every Western state has done. They have also supported Russia’s imperialist invasion of Ukraine, So my qualified answer is yes to some degree, but I definitely wouldn’t say imperialism is one of their defining characteristics, particularly when you look at the scale of their imperialist characteristics compared to basically any western state. What they are though is highly authoritarian towards their own people, and as an anarchist that’s what I find most problematic about the Chinese state.
Just doing the same as what your community is actively doing to me in this very thread. And what your community constantly does to others. You can handle it.
You do realise China has a history of colonisation as well, right? Every country has a history of colonisation, that’s how countries are formed. How about Tibet? Or Hong Kong? Or how they view Taiwan?
Yes I do. So what?
So what are you going to do about this community’s brigading and about the tankies within this thread? Last time I checked, denying rapes and being openly supportive of Hamas isn’t an anarchist position. It’s also a violation of the code of conduct, so I wonder why you haven’t taken moderator action yet.
Lol are you talking about cryptagion, one of the most vocal tankie haters on our instance? Yep, definitely a tankie because [checks notes] he supports Hamas in their struggle against their warmongering neighbour and refutes obvious Israeli war propaganda? Sure bro, keep stretching the definition of what a tankie is.
No, diva, cowbee and OP. All of which are self-proclaimed tankies
Though it is quite alarming to see anarchists supportive of Hamas and the atrocities that were carried out during the 7th of October massacres, killing upwards of 1200 innocents. Would’ve figured the death of innocents is always bad regardless of who they are.
But let’s shelf that for now and focus on the brigading and how this community seems to have lost it’s purpose, which is discussing whether or not a ban was justified, not about the views of the moderator.
It is always bad, nobody is arguing otherwise.
What’s your definition of brigading? Is it when nobody agrees with you?
