Normalise criticizing both the West and China/Russia for their shit.

Don't make it your identity to defend horrible shit, anywhere.

Confirmed! I was banned last week from the privacy ml sub for commenting ~~something along the lines of~~ found exact comment from modlog which states ban was for violating rule 2 = "Be respectful" (i.e. anything the mods disagree with).

Nothing. OP is a tankie / Russian PsyOps operative. If you care about a Russian billionaire who's surveillance capitalism platform refuses to even acknowledge requests to remove criminals, you deserve to live under the boot of Russia's authoritarian Kleptocracy. Save your energy for the **_actual_** wars on encryption and privacy that western plutocrats and capitalism are waging under the lie of Freedom™️.

I would argue the tankie instances/subs/users are actually Russian operatives, instead of CCP — same as it always is/was on Reddit.

Normalise criticizing both the West and China/Russia

But you still have to admit that the West is better. Otherwise you're doing a Whataboutism
