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

Repeat any of the terms I mentioned that will get you banned and monitored, or worse, in china.

Please I just want you to type them out so you can prove me absolutely wrong.

Just say her name.

PS. No army is moral.

Winnie the poo . 1989. Tienneman square 达赖喇嘛 香港加油

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.

Even thought you've been banned I'll respond by saying my information comes from Chinese people. Because I am aware of the potential of propaganda I like to speak directly, face to face, with people of cultures I have questions about. I have been informed by a number of people. I know people from many regions of China who share the same information.

I live with Chinese people.
I live with someone who worked there for 6 years and just came to live in my home. I live with people from every continent on earth and I speak with them.
