See, Republicans? You and the CCP aren’t all that different! There’s common ground here!
They also have something in common: neither of them practice communism ☺️
Also both are in favor of racial genocide.
And both call a lot of things communism that aren’t actually communism.
Like themselves 😅
Both have a cult of personality around the leader and the concept of an ethnostate.
Both also like forced labor of incarcerated people.
Oof don’t say that around @dessalines@lemmy.ml they get bigly mad when you point out bad things about the CCP lmao
Name an ML who doesn’t cry about Gaza but totally turn a blind eye to China.
Inb4 they show up in this thread with a bunch of apologia for a fascist state
@dessalines@lemmy.ml won’t, judging by his profile he’s too afraid to post his propaganda and shit takes outside the safety of the .ml echo chamber and the “friendly mods”
You have been banned from /r/pyongyang.
This is not the current CCP, but China has the award for the most stupid censorship of all time.
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was banned in the province of Hunan, China by the KMT’s government, beginning in 1931, due to its portrayal of anthropomorphized animals which act with the same level of complexity as human beings. The censor General Ho Chien believed that attributing human language to animals was an insult to humans. He feared that the book would teach children to believe that humans and animals were on the same level, a result which would be “disastrous.”
fursecution at its finest
-Could they turn into westeners? -no, sir even wose. They could turn unto vegans
Imagine being sent to the labor mines for reading Twighlight.
Sounds like a good start.
I’m actually curious which books they have bought.
None of the corruption cases publicly reveal what reading materials the fallen cadres had accessed. But a list of banned titles published by China Digital Times offers some possibilities. The list includes writings on Chinese politics and history, including the Tiananmen Square massacre and the disastrous Mao-era policies that saw millions die from famine, violence, and political purges. There are books scrutinising the modern CCP’s politics and power, or sharing the views of political enemies and critics like Hong Kong tycoon and activist Jimmy Lai, the exiled Tibetan Dalai Lama, and Bo Xilai, the fallen political foe of Xi Jinping. Hillary Clinton’s memoir is on the list, as is Machiavelli’s The Prince, and Hannah Arendt’s The Origins of Totalitarianism.
