@JorisMeys the united states is a joke already? our healthcare is gated behind the whims of billionaires and trillionaires, our food is produced in horrific and unsanitary ways, we have some of the worst workers protections and consumer protections compared to other countries "like us", we still occupy stolen land that violates multiple treaties made with native nations, and we have some of the least free press in the world.

what kinda racist, sinophobic shit are you on?

@LilahTovMoon

@walladiethylamide @LilahTovMoon ps: pretending that the chinese regime is some benevolent soft entity, is an insult to chinese people.

Also: the direct goal of BRIC is to replace the dollar with another global reserve currency. Anything that helps... 😎

@JorisMeys joking about china being an evil country while white, european nations are doing arguably worse shit than china is racism. like you don't need to invoke the "evil chinese commies" when you're talking about the united states of genocide.

just because you post for other people means nothing if this is how you're going to show your whole ass. racist sarcasm that furthers western sinophobic propaganda is still racist. like idk dude.

if you're fine with saying the same shit that some racist would, then fine. go off. but you're the one choosing to use language like racists and will likely get treated as such by other racialized people when you're acting like this.

you're an instructor, you do have systemic power. that you don't recognize that, on top of how you think casual racism is fine, truly makes me worry for your students.

i don't block ppl unless they do truly egregious shit. if you're willing to talk, so am i. i will get upset because racism has horrific consequences, no matter how "casual".

i don't want you to go into other interactions in the future and not have some idea that you may be causing harm.

racialized people don't deserve to deal with european racism constantly regardless of how normalized it is.

@walladiethylamide if I say Israel is committing genocide, is that racist? If I say Russia is out to destroy as much of the European economy as they can to reinstate the big Russian empire, is that racist?

Tiktok doesn't need the US, they could just put a message "this service is not available in your country" and put their US servers overseas. They didn't, and made this circus abt their "savior" Trump instead. Ask yourself why.

@JorisMeys how are these things equivalent? supporting a conspiracy theory that a multi-billion dollar singaporean company is doing business with a billionaire because the ccp is trying to destroy the us instead of it being a bunch of people trying to make money off a fascist state.

israel is committing a genocide. but i mean, idk on the context that you think brics, which has many global "south" countries, is intended to destroy the economy of europe instead of it being an anti-western imperialist coalition is kinda weird yeah.

is russia a petrol oligarchy? as much as i can tell. but if russia attacking ukraine is someone how worse in your mind than all of the current active us military campaigns and the support the us military receives from western european countries, yeah that's kinda weird. why does the us get to destroy the european economy through draining their resources and allowing us oligarchs to influence european elections without being seen as an evil force in your mind?
