Yeah centristards from their bedroom at Toronto thinking their good guys by being bothsidists while swallowing every piece of propaganda and victim blaming.
'The “genocide is no biggie” crowd ladies and gens. Too dumb to realize their pieces of shit
The wildest part to me was the international / immigrant nurse who was shocked that in the US we care enough about the mentally ill to bother putting them in prison. She was like “back home if they don’t have family that’s willing to take care of them we just physically throw and/or kick them out of the city and let them wander off and die.” Like I’m horrified by the US prison industrial complex but that was a whole new level of unhinged that I didn’t even know existed.
As someone who gets to interact with the unhoused daily, we’re not putting the mentally ill in prison because we care but because they are bad for business.
Here in Australia they took Aboriginal children away from their parents and put them on missions. They called them orphans while their parents were alive and trying to get them back. The missionaries would beat the children, rape them, force them to work, forbid them from speaking their language, send them outside in July without a jumper, send them to bed at 18 on bare mattresses without a sheet. If you’ve ever wondered why there are so many Indigenous people of mixed descent here in Australia, that’s your answer.
The government justified it all by saying the missions were “educating” the children.
If these Chinese education camps are anything like the Australian ones…

This is the wildest thing about propaganda, it’s always like, “If [thing] was so bad here, imagine how bad it must be in [place]!” No need to even involve facts or evidence, just use your imagination and let your preconcieved assumptions about other countries run wild.
This is where the real currency of propaganda is framing. With the right framing, every flaw and every crime committed by the West can be twisted around to cast shade on its enemies.
“Both sides bad” vibes projected onto geopolitics.
If Israel treated Palestine like China treats the Uyghurs then Kamala would be president.

Hey hey hey you can’t just compare the two!
That would be like comparing the amount of incarcerated people the US has to China and considering the populations.

I’m aware. I’m telling you someone told me in other parts of the world the solution is letting wild animals eat them.

Yeah exactly. When westerners whine about China, about Hamas that want to genocide israelis, they’re just projecting. Australia did that.
…There’s video. You can just check and see.

The same cynicism that reinforces that mode of propaganda is used at home to justify supporting genocidal candidates.
