    God I was hoping the Tankys wouldn’t run here full speed after reddit shut down, but looks like that ship already sailed.

      Certainly hope you’re not getting the impression that I’m speaking in favor of China. I’m more in favor of equal outrage over invasions of privacy from all parties, foreign and domestic.

        Whataboutism is a classic way to invalidate an argument without having to disagree with it directly. You’re engaging in that purposefully or not. If you really agree that both are bad why would people shitting on TikTok upset you at all?

      This just in, American realises no one outside of America actually likes America!

      You think you’re all that and a bag of chips, but quite frankly the rest of the world is laughing at you and doesn’t want anything to do with you.

      When you’re faced with that, you call everyone a “tankie”. Almost like people can hate both America and China. Both countries are dog shit.

      You should probably check your shit before replying - Lemmy was created and has been maintained by VERY left leaning people.

          Are you a child? Because that’s what I’d expect of someone who calls anyone a “tanky” for getting their bullshit pointed out.
