      Last I checked liberals are all about respecting rules and international law, so we’re just holding you to your own standards here.

          As an actual Chinese person, my disdain for the KMT runs a bit deeper than that.

          Fuck Chiang Kai-Shek from the bottom of my heart. He pleaded for help from the CCP, then betrayed and butchered the communists who were helping him. Just look at the Shanghai massacre. He then purged anyone even vaguely left wing from the Kumingtang.

          I never abandoned my ideals, they were always fuck the ROC to begin with. How do you think he lost the civil war in China? He lost popular support because he was a backstabbing vermin. He should be in a deeper layer of hell than even Reagan and Thatcher.

            god it was so confusing having a prof explain this whole history while adamantly backing the KMT/ROC. I was a lib at the time so I didn’t know how to process it but even then I was like wait he seems like a fucking asshole wtf is wrong with you.

          You Libs clearly have very little conviction to your “rules based order” and drop it the second it becomes a barrier to US hegemony.

          Nice try, but pointing out liberals being hypocrites has nothing to do with abandoning our own ideals. What’s being said is that you lot claim that’s how things should work and you don’t follow your own rules.

              can you point to where in this thread you made any claim that can be argued with? all I see is whining about communists.

                  you made claims but mostly about the people posting. snarky asides aren’t points to be debated.

        I’m not obligated to respect laws when the laws don’t respect human rights. Slavery was legal at once point. The holocaust was legal at one point. Was I ever obligated to respect those laws?

            It really doesn’t unless you believe the state media that’s allowed to come out of it. Even then, they publicly reject any lgbt type content.

            Calling it “vulgar, immoral and unhealthy content”.

            Even going so far as to jail a women for 10 years for producing BL content.

              There’s really no reason to believe western oligarch owned media over Chinese state media. Of course, western propagandists rely on people such as yourself being already primed to believe the worst possible things about China making their work pretty easy.

          Good thing you’re doing sober examination and study into life in China without western bias, how it has improved real living conditions for its people, and applying that principle equally across the board
