I have been lurking on Chinese social media because I’m sort of a native Chinese speaker. In China’s leftist scene, a lot of the “patriot”, anti-imperialist, pro-CPC folks are extremely anti-feminist, anti-LGBT, racist, xenophobic, anti-semitic, and islamophobic.

Of course CPC itself doesn’t slightly take those stances. However I’m worried if it grows out of control it might be a problem in the future, as some of those leftist influencers have millions of social media followers.

    It’s so weird that they never see the irony in “if you do minority rights better than the US they lose that much power to talk shit about you.” Like Chinese politicians are amazing at clapping back on western hyprocrisy. Imagine how much more material they’d have if LGBT rights in China actually were better than the west’s.
