Ah yes, it's always everyone else's fault for not buying enough shit, and not wage stagnation and market saturation with pointless product offerings driven by the soulless demand for ever increasing growth by the wealthy under capitalism.
Never the system at fault, always the exploited not being obedient enough market consumers.
That's right, it's the best system possible and we should never question it.
Especially since if you question it you'll die by the "invisible hand of the market" and be labelled an example on why any system other than capitalism can't actually work.
That's right, CIA trained death squads will educate you on the virtues of freedom and democracy.
It's funny to hear something like that from Russia/China supporter.
What do you think turns people into China supporters? Love for China or hatred of the US?
You don't have to love China to hate the US.
Can confirm.
Wanting a sports team to support in the league of harmful countries
China has not military intervened in a country since 1979, and have had strict non interventionist policy since. Whatever you think of Chinese initiatives like Belt and Road or Chinese economic foreign policy, it is no where near comparable to US/NATO military interventions and secret military death squads acting with impunity. Which is what the commenter above was alluding to.
Whataboutism
China hasn't been at war since the 70s while US has been at at war for 92% of its deplorable existence. Anybody who supports US over China is utterly morally bankrupt.
