    Nothing inspires confidence like bragging about your “critical reading skills”…

      Tankies love going on and on about how intellectual and well-read they are, but in my experience they’re some of the dumbest mofos I’ve had the misfortune of encountering (second only to fascists). Their ability to completely miss the point of a book/article/argument/literally any interaction that involves two humans exchanging knowledge leaves me flabbergasted, every time.

      At least they didn’t say critical thinking. They’re just accurately representing themselves

      In a post asking if someone can explain what excuse to give about ignoring what you’re reading.

      I mean they’ve justified their request with something else, but it’s literally just “asking for a friend”.

    thats what happens in a democratic country even communist nations are full of hatefull conservatives and they end up in authority

    i am sure the people’s republic will change this agenda as the younger generation comes into voting age. i hope for the same here

      By way of advice, I don’t think “capitalists do it too!” is a great way to excuse China’s behavior. But I agree with you in the hope that as younger people gain more power, they’ll eliminate these harmful homophobic policies.

      Lots of young people are bigots, and remember that every old bigot was once young as well. Bigotry can very easily be transferred from generation to generation if it is deeply ingrained in societal norms and structures.
