fuck interlectual property in general, so even if China did steal IP from other countries (it didn’t), I’d respect them even more
Cope lib
China retains crown in scientific papers, widens lead over U.S. https://archive.md/BFUU0
I mean yeah one has a bourgeois state (US) and the other an proletarian one (PRC) so technically you’re right in that it’s not really comparable.
Do you know what hegemony means? And do you think it’s a coincidence that you hold the same belief as the US state department?
You sound so gullible to believe a nationalist government will give up it’s territorial claims on their own Accord lol
Of course you believe in American exceptionalism
The NED funded protests in HK were genocide… interesting. Do you have a source on that?
How could china have handled the NED funded protest in Hong Kong better in your opinion?
Ugh, I need to figure out a way to unsubscribe from replies to a post.
Stop posting shit takes, and if you did then at least engage in good faith
You can be a stooge for American imperialism without being actually American
the smokes tho
Of course you think that there are no politics, because you have a very limited understanding of politics
You’re describing an echochamber…
Oh god. How thick can you be? You did not read correctly, indeed. The question was if the meme was political. And it clearly is, since it references political entities and distributes the ideology of whoever is OP of the meme to a bunch of unsuspecting lurkers that falsely assume it’s non-political. Also the fact that you disagree about what is and what isn’t political makes it political
their users tend to talk in a very demeaning and insulting manner.
About half of the popular posts on Hexbear are about making fun of people or communities
it’s more about their toxic behaviour
This can be interpreted as bad faith if you don’t mention towards whom this behavior is directed at.
Their political views are less of an issue
Thank you for admitting it’s about the optics (which is not a concern for us)
It’s not like they’re secret.They used to be public on the gittea repository. Can’t find the link post federation tho
I have only seen it used in reference to people who support dictatorial regimes with socialist aesthetics, mostly MLs.

Pro Tip: Sort by Top All. Anarchists getting called tankie tends to get a lot of upbears because we have anarchist comrades on our instance. We’re a left unity instance
I love how you guys have decided that your definitions are the only correct ones.
You’re strawmaning hard here, because I never said it’s a definition or that it’s the only one. It’s just my understanding of the term. What part of it is wrong in your opinion? I want to consider it
It’s your primary weapon here, for obvious reasons.
Because it’s obvious that when you’re challenged on your understanding of words you have nothing to say?
Too bad instances can’t defederate HB.
Can you please elaborate?
They seem to not understand that they’re tankies.
Tankie is a social construct and is used to lazily discredit everyone to the left of bernie. It functions to libs the same way as “woke” functions for chuds. As a term it’s basically meaningless to anyone outside of the internet.
China is listed as the largest and 5th largest in your source
