Many people on lemmy.ml deeply respect and admire authoritarian governments and organizations.
Iran, China, North Korea, Soviet Union…
The West has many flaws. But our flaws are nothing compared to these guys.
Iran hangs homosexuals. Iran shot 30,000 people in less than than 2 weeks. The Soviet Union had to build a fucking Iron wall to prevent people from escaping. The Soviets lied about the Chernobyl nuclear explosion. China censors the internet. China wants to eliminate Islam. North Korea is a totalitarian hellscape. Watching anime is a crime.
Why is lemmy.ml so fascinated with authoritarians?


China hasn’t exactly been doing great things to the uyghurs, but that’s not to support OP’s dumbfuckery
We can at least wait until Western media manufactures a Hui genocide before we can say that China wants to eliminate Islam
We don’t even have to wait for that. It’s fairly obvious that the Uyghur genocide narrative is just western propaganda.
There’s not really any credible evidence that China is doing bad things to Uyghurs either.
