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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

Why should China dive into helping Iran when the last time they were about to have really good relations the Iranian government threw it all away for the slightest concession from America? Iran is not run by principled socialists, they're a bunch of libs and theocrats who happen to be on the right side of history re: isntreal, China and Iran are right to improve relations now, but they're also right to be cautious and doing it in a measured way. Fool me twice, you can't get fooled again, as
would say.
US: Bombs the shit out of Iranian nuclear facilities
Reformists: We should have renewed dialogue with the US
Unless Iran gets rid of these traitorous reformist snakes, they cannot be viewed as a reliable partner. Imagine selling weapons to Iran only for them to not use it or even worse, destroy them because the current Iranian administration is some shitty government run by reformists who think they can get concessions by sucking up to the West.
China is wise to keep its distance from Iran.
6 months ago I would've called you a fool, but after they got bombed by the US and still let the IAEA back for inspections is when I realized their leadership is cooked
because me, a western leftist, expect others to do the work that is mine. Chinese people should throw their lives to stop my country from erasing other countries, not me that lives in the aggressor country and benefits from it.
No need, China already supports and trade with genocidal fascists
trade =/= support. The USSR also mantained trade with nazi germany at some point, if you think that makes them allies you're just disingenuous. Still doesn't change the fact that it is the US, likely your country, the one primarily enabling Israel and you do nothing about it.
Thanks for proving my point that it was bad for the USSR to do that. When China does something that isn't just talk let me know. Also for a country of over 1 billion it's hilarious to see not a single discernible action made by any individual made for Palestine.
