  • Well tbh, I also hate agreing to disagree. Discussion is the civilized solution to conflicts, although it provenly takes a long time to make sides understand each other.

    Nobody knows about everything. As long as the discussion is backed with sources and non-repetitive arguments both sides benefit from it, even when not reaching a consensus.

    Often I realize heated arguments even when both sides have really similar believes. Coming back to the meme’s topic, I’m sure you don’t see our western mainstream media as fully honest and non-biased journalism. Not that chinese or russian media is any better (far from it), but I believe autocriticism is an essential requirement for a healthy democratic society our foreign ministers brag about.

    Please, be more accurate with your statements. China is committing genocide at home (which is terrible) and supplying components, which applications include i.e. war drones for Ukraine war, in other words fuelling the war.

    On the other hand the west is supplying plain ready to use weapons, ammunition and war vehicle parts. Not only that, but also the crucial military intel necessary to hit the targets.

    Although one can argue the outcome will be the same, results show a much higher civilian casualty percentage of 83% in the Gaza war.

    There is a substantial difference in the battlefield between fuelling, arming and committing.



  • Did you read your own words? So, the west isn’t… but Russia and China is…? Such a colonial lecturing mindset if I may say.

    So how are ordinary chinese more complicit than you? You both pay taxes which fund the wrongdoing. Furthermore, we don’t live in a control freak state with no civil rights like them. At least we can denounce what our governments do.

    I hope we agree in that point. It doesn’t make arming genocide any better if it’s committed by our allies. Thanks to that today is more dangerous than even the Cold War.
