mocking progressive Latin Americans who use latin(x/@e) (I'm Peruvian and gender neutral language is on every leftist publication from over there), by using a sinophobic slur
garbage white joke for garbage white "leftist" edgelords
I don't know who out there is insisting to white radlibs that they have free reign to mock efforts towards gender inclusive language in Latin America, but "my friend told me it was dumb" is some sheepish garbage that you seriously need to do your own damn research on
is there a debate there?
yes.
gender neutral modifiers over standard Spanish are polemic. people argue, within the left even, about their tradeoffs.
it's *exactly* the kind of discussion you shouldn't be authoritatively weighing in on, remotely, based on hearsay!
especially to make such an idiotic and hateful joke
god damn
sometimes I feel South Park absolutely ruined the good sense of a whole generation of people
btw that poster (@AntifaOverlord) meant well! I didn't mean to go at them specifically.
it's not a matter of individual people, but the whole cultural miasma we are immersed in
be careful! try to verify your information before spreading it.
If anyone wants to know why this "libertarian socialist" position is completely worthless and entirely sustained by the CIA's anti-communist propaganda programs, hmu
big figures in "libertarian socialism" (and all of its other names like "anarcho communism" and "democratic socialism" and whatnot) include Orwell, who was a rapist snitch cop:
there's also Noam Chomsky, who doesn't understand Marx, thought there was no torture at Guantanamo Bay, thinks the NYT is the best paper in the world, the USA is the best country in the world, and told everyone to vote for Bloomberg
Angela Nagle was very prominently featured on the likes of ChapoTrapHouse and CurrentAffairs. She argues for abandoning "identity politics" to appeal to the platonic racist white construction worker, attacking immigrants, queer people, etc.
Absolutely fascinating Foreign Policy article about China, Xinjiang, and Uyghurs from May 2014!
Before Obama's "pivot to Asia" got going, propaganda was still wall-to-wall "Muslim Terrorism", so people wrote about Chinese issues more sympathetically. foreignpolicy.com/2014/05/14/one…
Opens up by clearly explaining that there is indeed ongoing terrorism in the region, but that Uyghurs lived normaly lives all over China.
This fact is nowadays obscured, terrorism merely an "allegation" from the "regime".
Look at this! The "some would say" is reserved not to demonize those who hold back on demonizing China, but on those who do!
Nowadays we hear wall-to-wall the opposite: "China's propaganda machine (some would say news station)"
Black Ribbon Day effectively constitutes a collaboration between anti-communist Nazis and collaborators imported into Canada as "refugees" post WW2, and the capitalist ruling class who appreciates their fervent opposition to pro-social communist activism and agitation.
Since 2009, in Canada, both Liberals and Conservatives have been trying to make "Black Ribbon Day" a thing.
The August 23rd remembrance attempts to draw an equivalence between the Holocaust and "the crimes of Communism".
"Nazi hunter" Steve Ramban points out that "between 2,000 and 5,000 war criminals fled to Canada after the Second World War, but not one Nazi has ever been successfully prosecuted in this country". nationalpost.com/news/canada/na…
@calicoarse Unfortunately my mandarin isn't yet so good that I can improve on anyone's translations, but I do have some information on this leak.
I think the "framing" of the report itself does a lot of the work, though. Take these three screenshots:
@calicoarse One of the authors, Austin Ramzy, was recently caught by a Chinese commentator tipping his hand a bit too hard in terms of revealing his feelings towards China via some aesthetic choices on Twitter.
