Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

It's absolutely incredible how much of this stuff is right there in the open. The really sad part of all this is that even when this information is officially published and accessible, people will still refuse to acknowledge it. This is what we're up against.
About ten seconds after I posted this I saw that you'd been heavily down voted for saying that China has long term economic plans. It's misplaced but I can understand libs being mad at praise for China. But mad at basic facts? Come on now.
It's no coincidence that you find agreement over basic facts in the kinds of sources we're talking about. Not always. And it can be spun in different ways. But, yeah, it's just… yeah… I'm lost for words when I come across it. Online anti-communists are deeply unserious yet entirely unaware of it, apparently. They can have strong and what they think are rigorous viewpoints without ever really having delved into the topic.
I met one that didn’t know didn’t know Africa and South America weren’t countries until yesterday. It astounds me they can know so little when we are the same age (granted we’re 15, but still).
I think that's exactly it. Liberalism has effectively become a religion for these people and they just filter out any information that contradicts what their ideology preaches. There is a positive aspect to this however because it makes it impossible for the west to make coherent plans to advance western hegemony. The political class is an echo chamber that's completely disengaged from reality at this point, and the policies they pass continue to fail in a spectacular fashion.
