I think the problem is how authoritarian it is. It feels like living in Russia or china. If you say anything bad about china, russia, NK, or the moods you are attacked like you are the anticrist and banned.
From my experience I would risk to say many of those accounts are not even "real" people just a lot of ccp or kremlin police. Really zero freedom to express any ideas or even debate
The reason it looks so very similar to the Alt-Right, is because it basically is.
To you, opposing genocide in Palestine and wanting to end US supremacy and western imperialism looks very similar to the Alt-Right.
Your problem is that you don't care when it's the west oppressing people
Not at all. If you don't want anyone to be opressed I would support but anyone knows about reeducation camps, ukranian invasion and I'm not even going to comment on nk... that is just absurd. I'm not defending us just because I don't agree with other peoples oppresion
Btw I'm not american! Just a decent human that want other humans to be free.
You support western colonialism which is orders of magnitude worse than anything you mentioned.
who said that? I literally JUST said the opposite. You ate inputing in me an idea that it's not mine. That's a you problem.
"I live in the most powerful and harmful empire but I reject any system opposing it" amounts to supporting it
do you even know how to read? I said I'm not american
No, you're European, still counts
Am I? Where am I from? You seem to think you know a lot about me. All of it wrong
Yeah, it's absolutely a pro-dictatorship pro-russian/chinese farm to get their bot accounts comments, upvotes, etc, to push misinformation.
Literally got banned today for saying Putin should pull out of Ukraine and china has live organ farm harvesting in Xin Jiang province.
Edit: spelling. According to some big brain thinkers if you make a typo in the name of the province where people are tortured, it miraculously never happened...
Well, good ban. Disinformation should be banned.
You also seem very concerned for the people of a province whose name you can't correctly spell. Surely not concern trolling
That is unfortunately not disinformation, you can easily google it.
Western state propaganda disinformation is readily available in Google, unfortunately. No material evidence for this, only "anonymous interviews". We've seen how trustworthy those are when manufacturing atrocity propaganda against US geopolitical adversaries.

Hey look the third result is a named survivor in an interview.
The original comment talked about Xinjiang province, not about Falun Gong practitioners, whom are interviewed in your article.
Falun Gong is a cult, and it's a political organization linked to Trump and to anti-Chinese propaganda. From Wikipedia:
Are these the people whose testimonies on China you'll be believing?
Man, good one, tankie. I'm sure Xi will be increasing your food rations for the month.
We're also believing the videos from inside the compounds and the Uyghur Muslims from the province that escaped.
You must be really proud of yourself for covering up some of the most heinous crimes against humanity that can ever occur.
Oh, now Wikipedia is a tankie too? Damn, you should tell the rest of lemmitors. Lmfao.
Sucks that so many people in Lemmy use "tankie" as a though terminating cliche. "I don't like what I'm reading, must be a tankie".
Its not so much a terminating term, as much as a term used for people who blindly defend "cOmMuNiST" (fascist) regimes breaking human rights. Im just going to assume youre paid for by either china or russia to push these lies, because no moral and decent human would approve this type of industrialised torture and genocide unless they were being paid or a complete and utter sociopath.
You can keep moving the goal post "oh, this person must be a liar" "oh, I dont trust that source" "these videos from outside the camp the chinese military refuse to let us into must be doctored" but Im not going to waste my time arguing with a bot or an agent.
"Not a thought terminating cliche, just gonna assume you're paid by China and Russia!! No moral human would defend China (hasn't participated in a war in 40 years) against the glorious USA (economic, political and military facilitator of the genocide in Palestine, while having higher prison count than China despite 1/5th the population)"
