Selling nukes on the blackmarket, notoriously uncontroversial and unambiguously GOOD and COOL

You're taking away my freedom to experience urban blight, this is basically genocide

Is there more context to this? Like this sounds ridiculous even for the USA. I assume then that he was seeding the articles or otherwise widely distributing them? Not that I think that's worth a death penalty...

I was looking for Chinese/Mandarin dubs of spongebob on youtube and half the videos were wildly racist sponge-caricatures....

On a side note I was looking for this because I ran across a hilarious german spongebob communist meme, which made me curious to see the dubs in different languages. The Japanese dub of the Spongebob intro is hilarious—the numbers of syllables don't fit so it's completely out of rhythm, and it has so many loanwords it feels like fever dream English.

Japanese vs. Mandarin vs. English Spongebob Intro https://youtu.be/R1BAHnPW45o If you don't use hanzi search terms be ready for A LOT of racism!!!

Not enough racism

My god, do you have the clip of that 😂

Wow, that's truly incredible. I'd like to add Kim Il Sung, Ho, Deng, and Xi but I think it's already at it's peak beauty.

Also I think it somehow independently developed Kim Jong Un's hair style 😳

Your repression in Xinjiang rivals the Soviet gulags.

lmao

Even better:

Your zero-Covid policy has, at times, transformed China’s great metropolises into vast and unlivable prison colonies.

and, pray tell, where exactly is China's "truculence" you speak of?

I hate that all the NYT is considered the cream of the crop and all the uni educated libs around me imbibe this crap uncritically.

I don't know, I'm worried about this narrative. Youtube suggested some video claiming to expose secret Chinese police stations in countries around the world, and if this gets pushed in the mainstream then we could get the Chinese Exclusion act 2.0 or something. A few years ago the US already gutted university chinese programs by kicking out all the confucius institutes for baseless accusations of espionage.

All the American liberals around me in my experience get uncomfortable if I so much as praise China's rail infrastructure and seem to think that Uyghurs have been poured into the concrete or something.

Just saw someone with a Polish and a Ukrainian flag, I wonder if that'll change lol

Have you checked out Carl Zha's silk and steel podcast? I've only listened to his episodes with Xiangyu on Taiwan and an interview about US black radical's relationship with China, but he has a lot more on Patreon I think. Only issue is that his audio quality is bad. I don't know what his political views are but he usually defends China, and Xiangyu is ML.

There's also the War Nerd podcast which isn't ML but has interviewed Carl Zha about the Tang dynasty invading three kingdoms Korea (if I remember correctly), China's involvement in WWII, and the rise of the Mongol Empire in addition to many other good interviews. I have that link somewhere if you're interested.

This is amazing. I keep seeing an ad for an entire TV show hosted by Oprah which largely consists of telling people that they're racist and solving racism by "talking about it."
