I fail to understand why I keep getting kicked/banned from leftist communities. All I did in that community was talk about the BRI, share my reading list, and fascinate about the guoxin-1: China’s first deep-sea fish farm that’s as large as an aircraft carrier. As well as talk to another person about how Chinese media could do a better job at outreach.
To these self-hating leftists, you can apparently only discuss China when they’re dunking on the West. But when you talk about the BRI, Moderate Prosperity, XJP’s New Era, or what have you: you get promptly done away with.
I now understand why none of the reading lists in Socialist groups don’t include anything recent or from the third world. These people are stuck in the past and only want to lever the actions of AES states to support their own moribund view of their world and their socialist causes.
I just wanted to make some friends on the left.
What’s up Western left? I didn’t even post anything (check REVeddit), to that subreddit and have already been banned.
Why can I only talk about anything China-related if it’s in relationship to the West? Are China and the CPC only a foil to Western leftists to promote their own form of socialism?
Does China’s success on its road to Socialism give Western leftists a inferiority complex? Do people that talk about Vietnam or other people from the global South experience the same treatment?
And John Oliver has enough anti-China episodes.
I still find it odd. And I’m utterly confused.
Regarding internal issues in the US he is OK, but international issues he repeats the State Department of the US, if a country is against American interests it is hell on earth ruled by monsters the exception is Saudi Arabia. I remember well when he talked about my country on his show that was bad poorly researched and spent more time with bad jokes than explaining the situation.
I don’t agree. I feel like he acts like a pressure valve that keeps the pot from boiling over. While he discusses serious issues he often redirects people’s efforts/attention in ways that just solidify the status quo.
