I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.

Just so you know, CPC or communist party of China

as opposed to CCP, or Chinese communist party,

is what they call themselves, and does not have certain racist connotations that CCP does.

Also CCP was used to associate with CCCP to help recycle a century of anti-soviet propaganda.

I will still call them the CCP. I hate the Chinese Government, not the people. The people deserve a government that actually gives a shit about them.

Since you "hate the Chinese Government, not the people," i.e. you have some basic human respect for those people, do you suppose that even a fraction of the population (say, ~10%) knows more about the Chinese government than you do? Remember before responding that VPNs are exceedingly common in China.

There are more than a hundred million Chinese people in the CPC and it has a 95.5 percent approval rate. If you hate the government but love the people that implies some prejudice about how Chinese people are in order to approve of their government.

Not giving a shit about your population by lifting millions out of poverty
