        that's good i guess. this shit should be discussed more. chinas cool for opposing capitalism, but i see a lot of people stanning them hard here, which basically requires them to ignore a lot of the information coming in this thread, which seems kinda fucked up.

      In some parts of the country. In other parts of the country same sex marriage was getting legalized. That mix of progress and repression looks like what I've read about China.

      that is not good.

      It's not. But they're also not in such a bad place that further progress seems impossible.

        yeah, and china is fucking huge. and there's a couple people in this thread saying there's some really good parts that are open and they've got friends who are gay and trans who are doing fine, and it's dumb to judge a nation by it's worst parts. but it's still pretty disappointing.

        Are there similar hate crimes in China?
