A Pakistani Diplomat Saw none of that. You believe propaganda of the CIA. https://www.thenews.com.pk/latest/422970-pakistani-diplomat-narrates-visit-to-chinas-xinjiang

Key part: To yet another question, she said, “I did not find any instance of forced labor or cultural and religious repression. The imams we met at the mosques and the students and teachers at the Xinjiang Islamic Institute told us that they enjoy freedom in practicing Islam and that the Chinese government extends support for maintenance of mosques all over Xinjiang.

I learned that there are over 30,000 mosques all over Xinjiang that form part of the religious life of the people there.”

Dan Cohen also refutes it here: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Hjurb61SZgk

Moreover, here’s a Colonel (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=00Cvx0R8iDo) admitting the USA actively tries to foment unrest in Xinjiang.

A report out of Italy also begs to differ. It also discusses to some extent on what China actually has done. https://idi-international.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/New-Report.pdf

Why don’t we also see from the people that actually live there? https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkbOIKUddMBtp0_xEFqn4zey48kkgJq5w

Meanwhile, your sources of propaganda of the ‘Uighur Genocide’ are…?

The 996 work practices do still continue and are just an extreme example of how terrible working conditions are across China.

We all know why the world dislikes China too, we haven’t forgotten China’s own ongoing genocide against its Uyghur people.

After seeing the other drivel you’ve spewed, it’s no surprise you believe that bullshit propaganda. You really are trashy.

What’s your favorite flavor of boot? You seem to like those a lot.

I hadn’t known this about how the Soviets treated Nazis before and after the war. It’s good to learn this and I really enjoy seeing your analysis and rebuttals.

At no point has eldavi broken it into a “false dichotomy”. eldavi is 100% correct that in liberal countries the judicial systems operate at the behest of the elites. That corruption can be addressed. As for fighting that corruption, you have another in this thread laying out the facts about who actually is fighting corruption and how.

There is a Ukraine community, but such a black-and-white perception of how Ukraine is discussed on Lemmy.ml does tell me all I need to know.

What do you mean by true info and limited how so?

And then those people go on to commit and abet pillaging and atrocities worldwide. You are defending killing people. There always is a choice, and the fact is that things can be changed for the better. A better world is possible.

That doesn’t change the fact you support all the above.

You’re evidently okay with the atrocities being committed. You excuse the inflicting of suffering and devastation on non Americans for a selfish benefitting of the soldiers committing and abetting them directly, and moreover to the benefit of scumbag elites who are incentivized to continue perpetrating acts of aggression, crimes, and atrocities, placing profits over people as always.

Smedley Butler’s conclusions apply to every American soldier.

Wild conclusion that I’m ignorant of the rightward shift just because I said Bush doesn’t sound like a lefty. Doesn’t help your case that he never was one in the first place.

How about trying to actually answer the question posed instead of further projection?

Almost as if there are other jobs out there besides military. Or do those not count?

Also, the fact you think Bush sounds like a lefty further highlights your own sheer ignorance.

Nowhere have I denied it. Even by your own words, the growth during Soviet times improved the quality of life of Poles significantly beyond what they had prior, only halting during the 80s and 90s as the Warsaw Pact collectively entered recession and then endured shock therapy. Are you suggesting that entire period of socialist governance is the dark period or only the 80s and 90s?

Though there has been further growth, income inequality has hugely increased, and there’s the compromises in sovereignty the EU imposes on its member states. Poland is a vassal.

You’re welcome to examine the conditions of Poland prior to the second world war and compare that through the rest of the 20th century. But at this rate, you’ll most certainly dismiss it all as “Soviet Propaganda” as well.

In fact, here’s a snapshot of that industrial growth Poland experienced under socialist governance spanning the 60s through the mid to late 70s, as shown in the 1978 edition of the United Nations Statistical Yearbook.

But that’s Soviet Propaganda, right?

You are willfully ignorant to the fact every crime, atrocity, and act of aggression was willingly committed and/or abetted by soldiers who enlisted on their own free will. This is what you support. It’s not a hard concept.

At last we see the ghoul’s true colors.

Really then?

Why don’t we check in with the dead Afghani and Iraqi civilians killed before and during US occupation?

Why don’t we check in with Serbia, still dealing with depleted uranium from US weapons?

Why don’t we check in with Vietnam, still dealing with Agent Orange and other fallout in the aftermath of their liberation after all this time?

How about over in Korea, where the US dropped more bombs there than during WW2?

Why don’t we see how things have fared in The Philippines after the US placed them under new management after seizing them from Spain in a war of aggression?

There are plenty more examples in the gaps between and further back in time. The only ghoul here is you.

Does the religious fervor that arose in the U.S. military when the Iran conflict began mean nothing to you?

Let’s not forget Smedley Butler’s conclusions on war the U.S. has waged as well. And then, the numerous war crimes that have gone unpunished. U.S. soldiers volunteered fully willingly and have committed them.

And then, evidently the bombing of boats in the Caribbean and the bombing of civilians in Iran means nothing to you either, those were carried out under orders that they did not question.
