Today I learned China eradicated an entire race of humans, enslaved a whole other entire race and popped the only 2 Atomic bombs the world has ever seen live on innocent civilians.

Also China lied about a War and killed 1 Million Iraqis

These other world nations got serious problems, but honest to god I really have no idea why we keep trying to downplay the sins of the United States

Chinas not perfect and has done and continues to do awful fucking things , but worse human rights overall??? Everyone has to do History Class again

the word "whataboutism" was practically invented to describe what he's doing here

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism

Although the term whataboutism spread recently, Edward Lucas's 2008 Economist article states that "Soviet propagandists during the cold war were trained in a tactic that their western interlocutors nicknamed 'whataboutism'. Any criticism of the Soviet Union (Afghanistan, martial law in Poland, imprisonment of dissidents, censorship) was met with a 'What about...' (apartheid South Africa, jailed trade-unionists, the Contras in Nicaragua, and so forth)."

User Banned (2 Weeks): Sinophobic Rhetoric

You're the only one claiming anything about tiktok "saving" anything, ignoring the various post in this threat by marginilized group on why they use and want Tiktok to stay.
Like reasoning posted by@Kyuuji Crossing Eden and various other users like these
https://www.resetera.com/threads/cbs-tiktok-says-it-plans-to-shut-down-site-in-the-us-unless-supreme-court-strikes-down-law-forcing-it-to-sell.1078593/page-16#post-134144202

And the Palestine reasoning doesn't matter, because it's the US in charge?

Twitter that is owned by known racist, anti-union idiot Musk that disowned his daughter?
Meta that just recently changed their rule on marginilized group, participated in a Genocide and the US election, selling data to "foreign" advesiry for $$$
And just days ago removed tampon box from their mens bathroom, and their owner stated in a interview

Truth Social owned by the incoming TV host.

I'm not ignoring it. I'm acknowledging it as a complete stretch that the Chinese government app that does not keep LGBT+ and Muslim folks safe in its own country will keep us safe in the US indefinitely.

Are you seriously accusing the people who don't want TikTok banned of being transphobic?

A complete stretch of anything in that post lol. Chinese trans people do not have a voice on Chinese Tiktok. Period. Any argument that it's protecting marginalized groups in the US needs to confront that.

Sinophobia....unreal.

Has anything interesting happened lately? There's like a million new pages everyday! I'm so far behind there's no fucking way I'll ever catch up

Nothing too crazy.

- Tiktok is about to get banned so RE is moving to some Chinese app and going all "CCP ain't so bad"

- Irish ninja got permabanned for his blue sky posts where he called B-Dubs the future amirox. His clique got mad about that. 

- Some people had a little fun and posted screenshots of various blue sky tweets of people calling out B-Dubs. The mods weren't happy about that.

- Some old poli-era members were suddenly perma banned for no reason, possible that B-Dubs is blaming them

The bold one I'd like to learn more about. IrishNinja is absolutely HamasEra--the sworn foe of PoliEra--and it's been the Hamas wing of the site that have been going ballistic about Dubs lately. Even if 3-4 posters survived the PoliEra Nakba, do they actually care enough to do this?

PoliEra: "yo the site is getting antisemetic as fuck, including some of the admins."
Dubs: *bans most of PoliEra*
HamasEra: "FUCKING DUBS IS A PEDOPHILE BITCH SPINELESS BITCH BAN ME YOU LITTLE BALL LICKER BITCH"
Dubs: "Curse you PoliEraaaaa!!!"

Honestly, I just think BDumbs is in denial and don’t want to acknowledge that old GAF/ERA communities and social circles are over. He may not want to admit that his side/circle of friends are calling him pedophile. Just like he cannot totally cut Nepenthe after she force humiliated him in the “abstain, don’t vote” discussion.

People like Noodlesoup are not that rare, is the usual American (as continent) tankie, is just that is getting more common in the U.S.

They are way more open about it.

They used to claim a lot that they were not fans of that version of communism. And they’d say it wasn’t “real communism”. Which is true in a way, but they only did this as a way to promote “real communism”, while in threads that were designed to be anti-American. it was very muddy, let’s say, where they stood. at least openly. But even the least politically aware person could tell that they were beating around the bush when it came to their stance about dictatorships. Which was very very obvious that they were pro dictatorships.

Trump’s incompetence is something else.

Trump doesn't need to do all that when the studios are already gearing up to bend over backwards to please him.

Just like Israel.

I hope all the people lost in this genocide find peace.

Nothing but darkest pits of hell for Biden, Netanyahu, IDF, State Department and any US official who supported this.

Just some big ass moth(?) on the top for some reason. Probably jerked off to that character as well.

If something I liked was discovered to be AI, then yes I would think less of it. What 'entity' is there to like? The computer? That's the programming; and I'm not impressed a computer did the job it was prompted, especially when we know its sources are stolen. 🤷‍♀️



Aright, back to r/singularity with yas

I care about this for the same reason I care about animal rights. If you don't actually consider the moral dimensions here it will be extremely easy to kind of accidentally create a societal underclass of sentient programmed slaves. There may legitimately come a time when the attitude of "of course AI can't produce art, because AI can't be people" will be looked at like we look at 17th century "race science".

[Boredfrom]

The degree to which the entire Trump/MAGA movement is just dudes who are desperately mad about being uncool is mind-blowing.

Like, all of them, from Trump himself to Elon to Zuck to all these losers now, it's literally 100% about petty torments for people who didn't share your self-delusion of being the coolest guy in the world.

Oh, I found a thread of the talking points about Red Note and China:

And so, Americans started diving into actual RedNote content -- grocery hauls, recipes, day-in-the-life, etc.

And.........they're........confused?

Because the US gov't has spent 30 years telling us how horrible China is, but....their groceries are cheap, high quality, and plentiful (they're eating lobster and crab on a Monday at lunch, not an anniversary dinner). Their jobs provide incredible, varied, healthy lunches and an hour to eat them..

Their street style and fashion is impeccable. Their health care is provided, their public transport is cheap, clean, and widely available. One big thing on RedNote is getting recommendations on where to eat breakfast, which can be had for a dollar.

Americans are like...omg, we're the poor ones...

I am watching 30 years of propaganda melt away at first contact with actual Chinese folks.

Is that dollar breakfast made using cooking oil from a chinese sewer? Because if so, I will stick with the American $10 Egg McMuffin. 

Thanx tho.

Someone should ask an economist how all the Chinese government price fixing for things like groceries is affecting their economy now that the artificial growth through the false housing boom has stalled...

My new years resolution is trying to be much more open about sexuality and gender, being less ashamed about myself and being more willing to talk about what I find attractive and want from a girlfriend.
