Bro what, if we can stop leftist infighting for one fucking minute that would be great. We all have 90% of the same goals so how about we work on that and not build artificial walls to those to the left of us. Also being pro western „democracy“ is cringe.

Western democracy has its issues. Namely capitalism.

Oh, wait, China has that problem too.

Western democracy also has issues with authoritarians constantly trying to weasel their way into power.

OH WAIT CHINA ALREADY HAS THAT

The CPC is Communist in name only, and the Party controls the dissemination of all information and has encouraged a nationalist stance.

I'm open to communism, but China isn't the model we need to emulate.

You people are all about the lesser of two evils but China is definitely less evil than the USA.

The Uyghurs would disagree

I mean I don't know stuff but I gather that some of these tankies hate china too

being a Stalinist/Maoist enjoyer is part of the whole tankie thing, Tankies are fans of vanguard party fascism, they are called tankies because they support the side using tanks to shoot down protesters.
