No, you people choose to be ignorant and believe the US government, instead of visiting China yourself or talking to someone in China or doing any research.

Even the CIA, by the way, has stated China has eliminated extreme poverty in the world Factbook.

I get it, a lot of rich white people paid for you to be the way you are; it’s still your fault to remain ignorant.

It’s valuable, it’s not as valuable as the entire rest of the world combined. The US simply doesn’t have the user share to demand the service be sold off.

Please read the output of your LLMs if you’re going to use them, you said:

Well, the American one doesn’t have an incentive to turn its own people against its own government with propaganda. As is happening with Tiktok and pushing pro-CCP and anti-American content.

It’s simply not. It’s allowing Americans to speak freely on America without government interference.

All of that non sequitur is great, but the fact is no foreign country needs to do anything to make Americans hate their government. Nothing. Except provide a platform that allows free speech.

That’s all Tiktok is.

Except homeownership rates, poverty rates, homelessness, illiteracy, class mobility, workers rights, prisoners prisoners per capita…

The US is one of the worst countries given it’s comical amount of wealth, usually coming in at rank 40 or lower by pretty much any stat you choose… Except gross GDP, the number of prisoners, the number of proper capita, the number of slaves working for private corporations, and maternal mortality rates. That’s where the US excels that China simple can’t compete in, arresting people, forcing them to work for profit for companies, and killing women in child birth.

The US is a tiny market compared to the rest of users, why would they ever sell?

You want to know how to turn an American against the US government? Tell them, without exaggeration, what their government is doing to them; and tell them, without exaggeration, what other governments do for their citizens.

It’s that simple. No lies needed. No american with an IQ above a glass of undrinkable tap water likes their government or thinks their country is worth anything.

Well luckily the straw man you’re assigning to China only exists in your head.

They’ve eliminated extreme poverty and are on track to eliminate poverty. Given even the poorest citizens don’t worry about rent or medical bills or food costs, their poverty looks incredibly different to that in the US.

…by seeing how shit is lives are in comparison?

I don’t think you understand how many centuries behind China the US is.

Fascism, according to Mussolini, is the combination of state and corporate power, the final stage of capitalism.

That’s, fine, it’s your choice to not use services.

That has nothing to do with anyone else. Simply don’t use the internet.

What is China going to do?

Hell with China’s track record, it’s better that China has it than the US government if you’re in the US.

No, it’s been that way for longer than you’ve been alive, unless you’re in you’re 90s.

No, governments can be great. Fantastic even. Not fascist governments.

The United States, having just elected capital to have exclusive state power, is fascist.

Congrats, bigot.

Anyway none of that is banned nor gets you banned. Your understanding of China comes from the CIA. You’re a puppet, pretending you’re free, and you refuse to challenge your owners beliefs.

Winnie the Pooh is not banned in China, the movie came out in public theaters you can search it on any Chinese site, you can buy merch on any Chinese site from any manufacturer of cheap shit and have it shipped to a mainland address.

This was honestly the weirdest obsession of racist westerners in 2017, the insistence a random yellow Disney character was banned due to westerners yet again calling the Chinese yellow skinned animals.

Not a ban evade, not propaganda. And you’re not on reddit. Please remember that. More importantly, I’m glad you found that you hated the US government, all governments really, and would like to dismantle capitalism in favor of mutual aid networks and found the right instance for all that early.

Some don’t find a friendly instance early.

That’s not criticism. Criticism would be, since the US tortures and kills more civilians in war than any other modern combatant force, as proven repeatedly by whistleblowers and leaks, the US is not a moral army and shouldn’t be allowed to operate a global military network that seems to solely exist to destabilize the global south and ensure white supremacy remains the default mode of thinking.

That’ll get you banned on Twitter, that gets you shadow banned on bluesky, that’ll get you ip banned on reddit, and will get you demonetized on YouTube.

Edit: also lemmy is as American as an American flag made after 1980

Well this has been great but since you can’t stop breaking comm rules, this is over. If you think you have freedom to not be right wing on Facebook or x, go ahead and try. You’ll be banned in a week, or shadow banned much sooner.
