      Because they’re delusional. There are some love letters to China in their history. I guess genocide is fine if it’s against Uighurs, huh?

        Do you have any evidence to support this testimony?

          Get a clue, buddy. “I’m trans and Biden bad, China good.” So you do support genocide.

          The weird part is you think having Donald win will turn the US into communism instead of a capitalist authoritarian hellscape. Or, I suppose you think that will topple America so that “Socialism with Chinese characteristics” can expand across the world?

          Protip, genius: the “Chinese characteristics” are capitalism. They still have billionaires.

            I oppose Donald Trump for the exact same reasons I’ve stated for opposing Joe Biden… because he supports genocide!

            Protip, genius: the “Chinese characteristics” are capitalism. They still have billionaires.

            Hold it!

            Are you saying that you consider Deng’s market reforms to be a right-wing deviation, and that you support hard-line Maoism?

            As ever, liberals don’t have real values, they just project their own sins onto others

          How many Native Americans had The USA killed? Because they are still regulated to Reservations and have no real Representation in Congress to this day.

            Millions. What is your point?

            Because they are still regulated to Reservations and have no real Representation in Congress to this day.

            So nothing like the Uyghurs then

      I’m not “blind” to that at all! I’m fully aware of it!

      I’d rather die as someone who opposed genocide, than live as someone who didn’t phoenix-objection-1phoenix-objection-2

      In the long run, if minority groups are being picked off one by one, and Democrats keep following Republicans to the right, then… it’s inevitable that we’ll be targeted sooner or later!

      No one who supports genocide for political expediency will ever have my back! How could it be politically advantageous to stick their neck out for such a small minority? There’s only one way: if different minorities band together and treat an attack on one as an attack on all!

      And that means zero tolerance for genocide!

        Being Complicit with the Genocide of Transfolks IS NOT having Zero Tolerance for Genocide

        Furthermore, Its a hell of alot harder for minorities to band together when they are actively being genocided. Voting for the lesser of two evils allows for that Solidarity to form and expand. Voting will never directly bring about Socialism in America, but voting can give the working class time for Class Conciousness to form that will inevitably lead to that outcome.

        Voting IS NOT a purity test, it is a dirty tool that must be used until other tools can be put in place to allow the workers to seize the means of production.
