Defending free speech that says good things is different than defending free speech that is just being racist. The implication of hypocrisy that you're suggesting with your comment doesn't really work unless you view all speech as equivalent, which it self evidently isn't.
The only solution is a military invasion of NK. Always has been.
The US always could have not disrupted the planned elections and installed a military dictatorship that kept a lot of the Japanese colonial officers around and started mass killing Koreans. Then the democratic korea wouldn't have had to try to liberate their country.
Have you ever listen to the CCP’s rhetoric? Especially Xi’s neo-traditionnalism and “restoring China’s just place at the center of the world”.
When China historically was the "center of the world" did they exert imperial hegemony over the rest of the known world?
This is a rhetorical question, because they didn't.
When you look at the way China has been making itself "center of the world" you'll note the lack of imperialism in their policy. They do not rely on financial and military control in foreign countries the way empires do.
And neither did you, you were off-topic from the get go.
You were claiming they weren't left wing and were state capitalist, I was addressing that misconception. Did you just try to say this as a "no you!"?
A woman from hexbear actually. Not everyone on the internet is a man, you can afford to not be sexist and stop perceiving man as the default. I hope reading my conditional defense of historical and existing somewhat successful socialist projects hasn't given you too much diarrhea.
Well, you’re blatantly wrong about political freedom in China
Oh, were they better under the KMT or the colonial Japanese? Gotta say bud, your coming off as not very historically literate.
Also, the Soviet Union alone didn’t defeat the Nazis so fuck off with your tankie revisionist history.
Didn't say they did. They just spearheaded it, being responsible for 80 percent of german casualties, and losing 26 million people for their troubles. Britain or the US wouldn't have been able to defeat the nazis by themselves. Continental Europe would still be the third reich without those dastardly tankies.
Furthermore, because you’ve outed yourself as a tankie, this conversation is over. I will not engage with the likes of you, a pseudointellectual.
From the towering intellect that thought the KMT or the colonial Japanese provided more rights than the PRC.
Also "outed myself"? Really? That sure implies revealing deception, and I've been nothing but open and honest about my views.
What it says on the tin.
as an hegemony seeking super power
Citation needed.
Also you didn't really respond to anything said.
I think you're missing the point. You have to take it in the context it was written in.
No offense but based on what I'm hearing you need to study your history of censorship and left wing support of free speech in response to that censorship. And I mean government censorship, not reddit banning a right winger and them crying about it.
(state capitalist and only communist in name)
I would read an English translation of "On the Governance of China" as well as this https://redsails.org/china-has-billionaires/
Even Lenin acknowledged that you can't get rid of capitalism quickly, and China started from an even worse position than the USSR.
Empires competing and creating multipolarity benefits China, other socialist nations, and the imperial periphery looking to break free. Keep in mind that mao's three worlds theory is a major influence on some socialist factions in China, even if it is reductionist. Russia maintaining strength to challenge the US(including if it comes through a defeat or truce in ukraine)(note that China is pushing for a truce which would maintain Russia's ability to defend itself from NATO better, but supplying them to maintain their strength) is a good thing in their calculus, and I haven't seen any compelling rebuttals to it.
Many of which were Korean slaves.
Edit: lol what a comment to downvote
