Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Yup. Tired of everyone in here providing cover for China. They aren't doing shit except words of condemnation.
Why are you tired of it? Do you live in a country that does not have rampant sinophobia and anticommunist tendencies?
People in here seem to forget what critical means when they say critical support.
Aside from Iran, Yemen, and Hezbollah, and The DPRK, China is probably next in line for their support to Palestine, but that isn't saying much.
Have they sanctioned israel in any way? No, they restricted the sale of Chinese drones for military purposes, but they still end up in the hands of the apartheid regime.
They haven't restricted any trade on the basis of "israel's" genocidal onslaught. At least Colombia stopped exporting coal to them.
And you believe Hexbear doesn't already have regular criticism of China's conservative foreign policy on this? I see this kind of thing mentioned every week.
Critical support honestly means very little when it is just anonymous people sharing opinions on the internet. What support? Pushing back on the predominant anti-China bullshit? Pushing back on the useless and incorrect Western leftist tendency to become ultras? It's not like a Hexbear from Florida is volunteering for the PLA or something. The extent of critical support in any of these spaces is just a rejection of anticommunist propaganda and unprincipled tendencies.
This kind of comment is why I hate the term critical support. It's been turned into some nonsense lol
Then one can say the same thing for support as well.
I still think China is the best country in the world right now, and have plans to move there in the near future.
But I also don't see how China directly funding a "country" committing genocide is excusable, and any criticism is labeled as anticommunist.
This comment just sidesteps what I said
How. I criticized china on one thing and you immediately called me anticommunist. You're the reason people associate us "tankies" as being insufferable. Touch grass please.
By not addressing anything I said.
I absolutely did not. This is a fabrication. Please don't treat comrades this way.
Now you're just baselessly insulting me.
lmao remember the first question I asked you and that you entirely ignored?
This is some lib debatebro behavior. The person you're arguing with has been very reasonable. I would highly suggest you take their advice and go
because this is unhealthy shit.
This stupid redditor shit just means "go away so I can win the argument"
I hate it so much
The person I'm arguing with is lying and insulting. Please don't defend this behavior.
Fuck off with that shit.
China ( mainland and HK) are Israel's second biggest importers behind the U.S. 3rd is Ireland
The bare minimum at this point would be to do something economically to pressure Israel. Like c'mon your telling me the world's manufacturing hub can't replace imports of optical equipment and chemicals, theres been plenty of time to find alternative suppliers.
Imports from Israel to China have dropped about 40% since 2022. I agree that it would be more beneficial for Palestine for us to see clear and overt economic pressure rather than quiet moves like this.
