    People in here seem to forget what critical means when they say critical support.

    Aside from Iran, Yemen, and Hezbollah, and The DPRK, China is probably next in line for their support to Palestine, but that isn’t saying much.

    Have they sanctioned israel in any way? No, they restricted the sale of Chinese drones for military purposes, but they still end up in the hands of the apartheid regime.

    They haven’t restricted any trade on the basis of “israel’s” genocidal onslaught. At least Colombia stopped exporting coal to them.

      And you believe Hexbear doesn’t already have regular criticism of China’s conservative foreign policy on this? I see this kind of thing mentioned every week.

      Critical support honestly means very little when it is just anonymous people sharing opinions on the internet. What support? Pushing back on the predominant anti-China bullshit? Pushing back on the useless and incorrect Western leftist tendency to become ultras? It’s not like a Hexbear from Florida is volunteering for the PLA or something. The extent of critical support in any of these spaces is just a rejection of anticommunist propaganda and unprincipled tendencies.

        Critical support honestly means very little when it is just anonymous people sharing opinions on the internet.

        Then one can say the same thing for support as well.

        I still think China is the best country in the world right now, and have plans to move there in the near future.

        But I also don’t see how China directly funding a “country” committing genocide is excusable, and any criticism is labeled as anticommunist.

            How. I criticized china on one thing and you immediately called me anticommunist. You’re the reason people associate us “tankies” as being insufferable. Touch grass please.

              How

              By not addressing anything I said.

              I criticized china on one thing and you immediately called me anticommunist.

              I absolutely did not. This is a fabrication. Please don’t treat comrades this way.

              You’re the reason people associate us “tankies” as being insufferable.

              Now you’re just baselessly insulting me.

              Touch grass please.

              lmao remember the first question I asked you and that you entirely ignored?
