imperialism (from ddg):

The extension of a nation’s authority by territorial acquisition or by the establishment of economic and political dominance over other nations.

I think you can read

EDIT: forgot the src

> imperialism is when invading other countries

> russia invades ukraine

> russia isn’t imperialist

mfw

what a counter argument

leftists when they claim to be anti imperialist but just support the other empire, your view of those things align with what the russian state wants you to think

they can but usually don’t, when tiktok was pretty new I became a nazi because of it and I stayed that until I saw how the government (any and every government) is a corrupt force that lies to you amd hurts you in other ways

on lemmy you are usually provided sources tho

china isn’t honest about labour camps for muslim minorities, why would they be about the incarceration rate?

> Both countries are authoritarian to me.

lmao, explain to me please how any state can be not authoritarian

I do give a fuck about china tho, since it’s even worse than the us imo and people on lemmy try to glorify it constantly

don’t know about the dangerous work conditions, but the existance of private prisons scares me enough

yeah, ik and I hate both the us and china, I just can’t stand it when people claim that the us is the worse than china, which isn’t true since in the us you at least get free speach and the right to own a gun

> Because we can’t speak Chinese and China publishes such stuff in Chinese language maybe?

a lot of eu countries publish theirs in english too for the sake of transparancy, but ok

> Chinese people feel differently about that, they consistently rate their country as a democracy much more than, say, US citizens do.

funny, when was the last (fair) election in china? also the reason chinese people don’t tell journalists how shitty their lives are is because they could get into a concentration camp reeducation camp for saying that and don’t forget that all of that is for nothing since china got the highest millionair density in the world and thus can’t be really communist imo and don’t start me on holy xi trying to hide homelessness
