You know what, it’s not even apparent, you explicitly stated it:

China’s red-blue man owns US’s red and blue men anyway.

It’s a good policy for sure.

God could the point go over your head harder. That user wasn’t engaging in a conspiracy theory that Jews on all the banks movies and government, they were comparing your apparent belief that the Chinese government controls the American government to those antisemitic conspiracy theories.

Also zero points in an argument with a bunch of people who can’t downvote

We used to allow downvoting, we just got rid of it to stop trolls from making multiple accounts to downvote every comment from people they disliked (specifically trans users were getting their comments brigaded like this) and it turned out to be a great choice because it encouraged discussion if you disagreed with someone.

Also we’re definitely not “Russian or CCP farmed trolls” why would they have paid people to talk amongst themselves for three years? I mean I could really use the supplemental income so I wish, been putting off car repairs for months due to finances.

You could go to an instance that blocks us, like Lemmy.world if you are that scared of communists.

Alternatively this third party app Pretty Private Browsing has instance blocking features I think, but I don’t care for the UI personally.

Final option I guess is to cry about it?

"Yes, but if they invite allied troops into their country it stills counts as an invasion of Ukraine. What do you mean that isn’t independence? "

Yeah because it betrays your actual beliefs

You keep saying that you support it and then adding caveats that prove that you actually don’t.

“I support Tom’s claim that he owns this house and would only want brief jail time for Susan’s breaking and entering through the unlocked front door when he invited her over to help protect him from his neighbors Steve, who keeps shooting at him. That said, Susan went way too far when she also did a breaking and entering into Steve’s yard to attack him while he continued to shoot at Tom while shouting ‘That house is rightful Steve property and Tom the cockroach can scurry back to Susan’s house.’”

If someone said this, the only logical conclusion is that they actually fully support Steve and are lying about supporting Tom.

Are you suggesting that the majority of Uyghurs support ETIM. Furthermore, ARE you stating that you personally support the self determination of the ETIM movement?

You’re literally mad at me for NOT reading between the lines and assuming you meant something other than what you said, asshole.

If I said that I supported people’s rights to sell marijuana and I didn’t even think they should get much jail time for it, people would rightly point out that I was lying about my support.

You stated that you supported self determination for people in the Donbas, and I didn’t ignore it at all, I’m saying that even within the same post you proved that you actually didn’t when you referred to their allies entering their territory as an invasion.

Again, I’m not ignoring anything, I just think you’re a liar and that you only started pretending to support the Donbas’s self determination because doing otherwise would undermine the point you were trying to make about Taiwan.

It came into your head for a reason, liar. I guess going forward, nobody should assume that you mean what you say.

Honestly I wouldn’t even much of a problem if they just invaded Donbas

How could they possibly invade the Donbas at all when they were invited?

Hey, coward, explain how you can simultaneously believe that the Donbas is independent and that when Russian troops entered their territory at their request that constituted an invasion.

Explain or admit that you don’t consistently believe in self determination.

I’m almost certain they can, I think they just lack the posting power of

You can argue about anything, but these countries are absolutely US vassals.

I’d expect US vassals like Canada, Japan and the EU to side with the US.

Free speech to say what, friend?

Until you actually clarify everyone is going to assume you’re mad that you can’t say the n-word and are a huge bigot.

EDIT: at this point, even if you clarify, I personally will assume you’re just covering your ass
