Amazing how comfortable you are being racist on a public forum.
Anyway, people should look at this map and take note of how far Taiwan's ADIZ extends into Fujian province of mainland China and the open ocean (which is the southwest corner the PRC's airplanes were supposedly encroaching on). These articles are obviously published to make China seem more aggressive than it really is. Meanwhile the US, with the most powerful navy in the world, parades its warships through the Taiwan strait, which for some reason is not seen as a threat or provocation. Also Taiwan claims the mainland as its own territory. Oh, poor little Taiwan. Lol, get off it.
How is calling out a Chinese bot or Russian bot racist? You are obviously pro-China and you didn't read the article. That makes you a Chinese bot.
At long last, we've reached the molten core of psychotic liberal solipsism
Dudes making us wheel of time fans look fucking terrible smh
Anti Chinese government, pro Chinese people. Just don’t mention how many Chinese people actually support their government
"How am I being racist? I'm just assuming anyone who disagrees with me must be a certain ethnicity and/or bot."
This really isn't too complicated. Stop using Chinese as a pejorative and "bot" as a thought terminating cliche. It prevents any meaningful discussion, and yes, it's also very racist.
Hush hexbear
Damn I wish my instance wasn't federated with them.
The term isn't being used as a pejorative. The term is being used as an adjective to a pro-chinese social media commentator. Mister Doi Doi with NO history in lemmy.
you're suffering from some serious
brain poisoning
Got'em. You should post hog
hog out or
Their account is two years old and has two years of history. Idk if that doesn't show up for you or something, but it is indeed there.
Chinese refers to the people who live there or who's families emigrated from there, not randos online who don't support the rabid NATO line. your racism is showing.
Sir or Ma'am, I am a US citizen of Chinese descent and I assure you that you are being a cracker, and you can stop any time.
My bias is towards peace and against interfering in other countries' internal affairs. Taiwan is part of China, this was settled in 1972. It's only in recent years that the US has taken a hostile stance against the PRC since its peaceful economic rise has started to threaten US hegemony. This is not my fight, it's not your fight, it is the fight of the US ruling class—its political establishment and its financial oligarchs. China and the US should be allies, and we should be putting our combined labor into decarbonization, healing the ecosphere, reparations for the global south, and preparing communities for the effects of climate change.
Also, my family immigrated from Hong Kong before it was released from British rule, so ~by your logic~ I should be against China, which I'm not, because I'm capable of critical thinking.
Oh, and one more thing:
You are obviously pro-West so you are a Western bot.
I am anti-Winnie the pooh led mainland expansionist imperial China.
"Yeah, I am comparing the leader of China to a yellow bear, but it is totally not racist guys. I really care about the chinese people"
Didn't take long for that one to come out, accused of being racist and immediately compares the leader of China to a yellow cartoon bear lmao. Incredible
What's wrong with Winnie the Pooh anyways? Who doesn't want to live the rest of their life eating honey and being a loving, caring member of their community?
I'm so flattered your first comment or post EVER in 3 years is to me. bye!
That is one of the top all time posters over on hexbear. I'm not sure why you keep thinking that established posters are new bot accounts, but it's absolutely not helping you to look less ridiculous
The instance I'm a part of (hexbear) just federated with Lemmy dot ml a week ago. So I don't have many comments on here obviously. I am unfortunately addicted to the internet and have way more comments than that on my accounts main instance. I wish this was my only comment in 3 years lol. Could have got so much done instead of wasting time on my phone.
Cope and cry more racist.
🌽
they have three years of post history
Is this supposed to be another example of you not being racist? Comparing the president of china to a yellow cartoon character?
Oh Winnie the Pooh is a common affectionate nickname for Xi on the internet. Do you not know that comrade?
Yeah I'm fully aware that there are a lot of racists online
Did you know that the "nickname" derived from a myth of the character being banned in China when it is not?
And the racism, don't forget the racism!

This is amazing o7
A racist bot at that...
If you want to not show yourself as a bot, you should at least be creative in your racism.
Was West Germany expansionist?
You're expecting this person to know any of this history of China before 2000
you, oh enlightened
one, could you perhaps explain to us what the word 'bot' means?
You sound completely deranged.
Need a Sopranos comm.
"You sound demented!"
That's precisely the sort of argument one would expect from a NAFO bot. Hope you earned enough FICO credit points to buy food tonight.
Yes, the ADIZ includes part of China, but this article is mainly about jets crossing the median line of Taiwan Strait. Also I don't think Taiwan gets mad over any jets intruding the "overclaimed" part of the ADIZ.
It says the jets did that OR were in the southwest zone. It is intentionally vague alarmism.
