    yet they would have the same or fewer rights over there. Call them on that and wait for the explosion.

    tbh they would probably just say “we admit that China isn’t perfect”

    out of the blue a dozen other accounts will swoop in to back up the tankie

    if your comment isn’t at least buried under a chain I don’t find that suspicious. comment engagement is higher across the broad here. i think it’s better we assume it’s a human (cult) so as not to underestimate, and so we engage without losing sight of the biggest thing we have that they often lack—empathy—against their tribalism.

      I do think we shouldn’t underestimate their numbers but put it this way, I’ve sent tracking images in private messages under other accounts to multiple users who have commented on mine within a suspicious time frame using identical language, and many, many times it came back with the same IP.
