Chinese police hunting international corruption targets were allowed into Australia by the federal police and subsequently escorted a woman back to China for trial, in a major breach of Chinese-Australian police protocols.
The revelations, contained in Monday night’s Four Corners program about a former Chinese spy, prompted a sharp rebuke from federal politicians who are concerned the act may have undermined Australia’s national security.
The Chinese police were permitted to enter Australia in 2019 to talk with a 59-year-old Chinese-born Australian resident.
The woman was targeted under a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) anti-corruption drive called Operation Fox Hunt, which relies on police from the Ministry of Public Security (MPS) to make arrests.
Her case is one of 283 cases documented by an international NGO, Safeguard Defenders, in its recent report, Chasing Fox Hunt.
While Fox Hunt is described by the CCP as targeting “economic criminals”, human rights groups have said it is also used to silence dissidents and abduct people around the world.
Are you speaking about yourself? Because you absolutely are the same commenter.
They are talking about you. Their first reply was to someone else but the second was for you.
That was a very unconventional way of phrasing that.
And yet extremely easy to understand especially when you’re the one who butted in randomly
Is joining a comment section considered butting in randomly? What is the point of Lemmy if joining a comment thread is viewed negatively?
Doing this is only negative if you’re a jerk about it, which they were
In what way were they being a jerk about it? I read his initial comment as being pretty neutral.
It’s not really worth it for me to go back and scour the thread but they definitely came off to me as trolling by repeatedly stating “you’re the same commenter tho!” Even though that made no sense in context
It made complete sense, since I also understood the other guy’s comment as saying he is not the same commenter due to his phrasing. And the NurseRobot guy only said it twice, the 2nd time due to the other guy refusing to elaborate his confusing phrasing and accusing others of using alts for some reason. Can you explain how repeating a statement one time due to confusion counts as trolling?
They forgot to switch to their alt lmao
Lmao
… so either you’re on alts or have such a lack of self awareness that you don’t even recognize what you did.
Either way I think we’re done here lol
Again, are you speaking about yourself? You’re the original commenter, not me.
