I do not see the resemblance.

If you took your head out of your ass like I originally suggested instead of trying to push the CCP’s bullshit, you would.

Sure he doesn’t…

By your logic, the Simpsons are racist against Chinese because they have yellow skin. Again, you keep talking, but all that comes out is incoherent bullshit.

Winne the pooh is racist now? Dude - the whole reason it became a meme is because someone made a cute comparison of how Xi looks like Pooh (which he objectively does) and the whiny little bitch threw a hissy fit and created his own personal Streisand effect. It has nothing to do with the Chinese people and everything to do with a thin-skinned dictator.

Remove your head from your ass before you speak. You’ll sound a lot smarter.

It’s not. The commentator above is just using Israeli style conflation to attempt to dismiss any critique of the Chinese government as racist against Chinese.

Side note: For the record, I’m not racist. I hate everyone equally.

Wow. Didn’t expect it to work so fast. You ok, boo boo?

Challenge accepted.

Mao was a rapist as bad as Trump.

Yep, kids too. And on top of that, he was just fucking gross

Oh, almost forgot… Taiwan is not China, Hong Kong deserves independence, and FREE FUCKING TIBET ALREADY.

Harris doing her best Neville Chamberlin impression…

But I agree. Impeachment won’t work, and it simply isn’t a solution in a corrupt regime. It’s just theater designed to distract you from rioting.

The only solution to a fully corrupted government is revolution.

Why did it take a whole year for her to take that picture?

Ok kids. Let me take you back in time to the olden days of yore, or as we like to call it, Wednesday morning.

Back then, a little-known user, @[email protected], posted an innocuous shitpost regarding early Mr. Universe winner, Bruce Randall:

Bruce bulked up by putting powdered milk in his milk. This grabbed Lemmy’s attention by the beans and resulted in the memegasm of powdered milk we see today. Last time I checked, it had blown all the way up to Ten Forward:

…where apparently resistance to powdered milk is futile.

These days (Wednesday evening), the powdered milk memegasm has mostly run its course. Metamemes are popping up, blending beans and milk, with dire consequences for Lemmings’ digestive systems and anyone standing downwind of them.

In essence, powdered milk is a prime example of the meme lifecycle - arising from a shitpost, wafting high on its own cringe into the collective consciousness to be flung between hairless apes until it splatters over everything, marking everything with its scent before finally descending back into the shitpost from whence it came.

Side note: This would make a perfect subject for a documentary on memes narrated by David Attenborough.

Oh how the turntables…

Pregnancy is the gotcha gatcha.

Pedantic Putz Punted by Petulant Pedo

I wouldn’t. I’d let the community decide via voting. You don’t engender discussion by silencing speakers because they don’t meet your requirements of legitimacy. If there’s a question of legitimacy or bad faith discussion, identify it, talk about it, and downvote the hell out of it if needed.

But don’t remove it. Once you do, you’re no longer curating a discussion. You’re promoting an agenda.

Rejecting a voice out of hand because of whom its coming from is blatant censorship, and a tacit admission that your ideas can’t compete with theirs in the arena of public discourse.

This isn’t a tease so much as a thinly veiled threat.

Or the latest Fox sitcom pilot. I can’t tell anymore.

/c/politics is a hive of scum and pedantry, with a healthy dose of hypocrisy. If you say:

Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading

…while allowing articles that are blatant AI summaries from trash rags like the DailyBeast and Business Insider simply because they’re tied to a company, you’re not fostering political discussion. You’re advancing a corporate agenda.
