Perfect

Comment in before we find out it was some far right person that wants the genocide to start again.

You just sound like a Nazi apologist at this point.

You realize arguing against your own strawman is not addressing my argument right? I guess you just convinced yourself that I actually said “any type of insult is acceptable”. I never said that. YOU said that. Everything you’ve said since then has been pointless rambling and arguing against something I never said.

No, a traffic stop or an interaction with a police officer isn’t a detention

Literally just wrong. Detention includes a temporary hold . A traffic stop is a temporary hold. You’re just comically wrong. I won’t bother replying to the rest because you started your reply with such stupidity.

10,000 people detained out of how many tourists worldwide going to china? Like, I’m just trying to get some context because (1) a massive amount of people visit China every year and (2) how does this compare to other countries. A person being “detained” could literally just be a traffic stop or any other interaction with a police officer.

I guess my point is the article is purposely vague. How would this compare per tourist to the US for example?

Also, what you’re mentioning is not at all what I mentioned originally. Which was about the article and Taiwan. You changed the subject to worldwide in order to make the number larger. Which, obviously it would be.

Edit: Asking about actual per capita comparison between countries is bad apparently. I guess “China bad” is heavier than getting actual data. Something this article completely fails to provide.

Yes. It absolutely is. If only there wasn’t a video of this dude doing a salute back to back

On top of that “the future of civilization” is a dog whistle to the 14 words of the Nazis

We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children

Amazing. You wrote a wall of text without ever addressing what I said. It’s obvious you don’t want to actually have a conversation so now you are just rambling.

Tell me. What is the difference between the swastika or the salute? I’m gonna guess the main difference is you haven’t read 100 reply guys trying to come up with any reason to deny he’s a Nazi. Do you know who does that? Nazis. Nazis know that it’s still not expectable to be a Nazi. So they will always try to get you to “not believe your lying eyes”. While always doing dog whistles to signal to other Nazis. But this salute wasn’t a dog whistle. It was a fucking mega phone.

Thanks for ignoring everything I said and responding with a straw man. Good job.

“Nuh uh. You are! And here’s a totally different thing that removes all nuance so I can ignore what you just said!”

That’s literally how you just replied. I guess you have no interest in actually discussing this because you’ve gone full circle into stupidity now.

At the end of the day you’re criticizing something that is meant to insult a Nazi. If you can understand the difference between a homophobic person puting a “I suck cock” sticker on a car and (let’s say) a gay man putting a “Nazi Cocksucker” sticker on someone’s car. You can also understand the nuance of any type of person puting the OPs sticker on someone’s car. There is nuance and context that you are trying to remove to (1) criticize a sticker meant to insult a Nazi and (2) the use of cocksucker as an insult.

You’re removing any of that context to hyper focus on something and pretend that nuance and context doesn’t exist. Which is very very radlib of you.

The only person that you’re defending in this situation that should actually be offended is a female or gay Nazi. So you’re literally just defending the feelings of a Nazi. Unless you want to remove all context and nuance. Which is what you tried to do.

I’m calling you a liberal as in a radlib sjw type liberal. I thought that was really obvious because it’s how you’re acting. I’m not calling you a capital L Liberal. Yes, words can more than one meaning and can also be offensive or not offensive given the context. But I guess it’s obvious you don’t understand the meaning of words or any nuance to how they are used. I mean that’s kind of how this whole conversation started.

2.77 Million people visiting China from Taiwan. 65 detained with not a single actual individual person being mentioned in the article. Just vague “went missing or had their personal freedoms restricted”

Why is this news?

It’s amazing a dude can do back to back Nazi salutes and people on the Internet will still defend it because “he said something afterwards that lets me deny what I saw with my lying eyes”

What’s next? The dude goes around waving a Nazi flag but later on Twitter he proclaims he’s now a Hindu. So I guess you’d still believe him? Come on mate. You can do this.

It’s a duck mate. You can believe your eyes. It’s ok. You’ve been lied to for a really long time and it’s hard to undo all that because it defines a lot of who you are as a person. I’ve been there mate. The first step can be from this though. He did a Nazi salute. You don’t have to unravel the rest of your beliefs yet. Just start with admitting what we all saw with our eyes. He did it twice just to make sure you knew.

Well then stop acting like a liberal

This is not far off from the logic of acting like a cop is part of the working class. This isn’t “working class attacking each other”. This is literally a sticker with the richest dude on the world on it. This is shaming what is most likely some petty bourgeoisie. Or someone that thinks their class interest align with them.

Liberals trying to not defend Nazis challenge impossible.

Like, do you think the insulting part of this is the cock sucking? Elon has a cock (presumably) and anyone (man, women, enby) is sucking it by owning a Cyber truck.

This is anti Nazi. Holy shit liberals need to get their priorities straight.

Isn’t the whole major factor of climate change being that the atmosphere is able to retain more moisture? I may be wrong but I thought I read an article about this. A major shift being a lot of dry periods in regions followed by very wet periods. Essentially the atmosphere can hold more moisture so it has longer dry periods and then much more intense rain and floods. Which would obviously be similar for snowfall.

Hey I know this cat. Looks like the cast all 5 of the neighborhoods I grew up in had roaming around.

Ok. You bring up an important point. And I hope I can take a minute to convince you of something.

What you’re saying is correct. But it relies on fundamental falacy of the way people try to view economics. When we say “capitalism” we’re obviously talking about the entire economic structure; the “rules” for which an economy is organized and the government that enforcess those rules.

The issue with your comparison is that is is not at all comparable to the economic insensitives of massive companies. There is absolutely no valid way to compare a small business or individual hiring a contractor to what I was previously discussing.

I think our economic education suffers in this country because people tend to think of massive economies of scale as just a “bigger” small business. This is not at all comparable. And the waste that this produces is absolutely non trivial.

The “run the country like a business” people have this same flawed logic. They image that any business is just a “coffee shop” but with more employees and customers. But these things are just not comparable. It would be like everyone deciding about how to build an airplane but they assume that the physics are in a frictionless vacuum.
