I hope. permalink fedilink source hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago it feels more like a cornered animal at this point. and we all know what cornered animals do... permalink fedilink source parent [–] yucandu@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago (3 children) Death throes? What are you talking about? We're in the beginning of Fascism 2.0. Everything we're experiencing is mirroring the rise of Nazi Germany, Japan, and Italy. Except this time it's America, Russia, and China. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 0 points 2 months ago (2 children) Its weird to include China in that list, especially when Japan never de-nazified, and Germany is getting ready to re-nazify. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Zagorath 13 points 2 months ago (1 child) Ask the Tibetans, Uighurs, Hong Kongers, and Taiwanese how they feel.

Of course if you think the Chinese government controls Kazakhstan, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Japan, IDK what to tell you. Last Taiwanese person I met we only talked about green tea, and they seemed really defensive about it so it didn't seem like talking about politics was a good idea. permalink fedilink source parent
