    Hasan, what do we think of Taiwan?

    • “Ehm, the concept of Taiwan should remain in the hands of the people that dont want to disrupt the ongoing relations with China”

    Definitely didnt get his mansion from CCP curator.

        Very funny. But yes he is not allowed to criticize china for some reason, and also has lots of money, this makes it utterly suspicious. And I wouldnt want to trust this person as some kind of leader.

      When did he say this? I can’t really find a source. Otherwise it’s about as believable as this: Martti, what do we think about China?

      • “Well, they’ve been on the forefront of EVs for the better part of this new millenium, and have lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty. Sure, they have some human rights abuses, but when I compare this for example to the dozens of violent military incursions that the US has carried out in foreign nations, resulting in the deaths of millions, I cannot but conclude that on the whole, the influence of modern day China has been a net positive, and that focussing on them for their human rights abuses rather than the much more voluminous and needlessly cruel actions of modern day USA, is missing the mark quite badly”

      That’s a direct quote btw.

      That’s pretty damn reductive.

      Sure, he has some tankie takes , that one being an example, but he has a lot of good ones too, about Palestine, cops, healthcare, Luigi, general anti-authoritarianism, and much more.

      He’s a relatively young dude giving his opinion for FSM knows how many hours a week, so he’s bound to have a shitty take here and there.

      That doesn’t mean he’s on the payroll of China, much less owes his wealth exclusively or primarily to such corrupt dealings 🙄

        Childish protectivness never leaves us I assume? My statement is, that he is not allowed to criticize china, and has dual standards. Like when Chinese police took his phone, it is okay, because yara-yara. But when the very same thing is done by really similar country (U.S) it is worst crime against humanity.

        I personally dont want to trust a person that has high likelyhood of being chinese proxy, and will eventually betray the new left in the interests of corpocratic regime like china.
