Western Maoists have never tried criticizing the CCP publicly while in China.

Me when Tankies use NATO or EU as a scapegoat.

I reported them in another thread for Holocaust relativization. Might be partially from that. However log it says the .zip admin was fed up with compast spouting nonsense.

Oh look. Compast got instance banned from lemmy.zip

Eurocommunist, kind of a variant of democratic socialist.

I am not an anarchist. I am a Eurocom.

I’m not your bro, buddeh. (Firstly, because I am non-binary and secondly tankies aren’t comrades.)

No. Compast seems to have a few accounts.

Also

Those were the times. Guildo was a scumbag who kept defending Stalin and he was so easy to bait too. Like you only had to mention Soviet atrocities and Guildo would come out of the framework to defend Stalin.

Also the mods were democratically elected. Mathe I mean Guildo didn’t like that.

They complain about being called tankie but unironically call themselves that

And there we go with the whataboutism again. Typical. This is about Huawei and the proven security risks, not the US. So stop deflecting to the US.

What mbfc calls left-leaning is still considered center right in Europe. Your point is moot.

Also I noticed the mods already adressed this, so could you give it a rest?

Against. It is one thing to get rid of clear propaganda sites like Breitbart, RT, WSWS, IRNA and possibly PressTV too. But you cant be going around demanding to ban media outlets that do high factual reporting and are generally considered to be centrist because the owner company is conservative.

When Politico starts posting Fox News, Welt or Bild level crap, then we can talk about restrictions.

Germans be like: “He’s named like the drink. So Heiße Schokolade mit Schuss must be popular there.”

I actually got a similar statement from someone in my village before. Doesn’t surprise me that the statement came from a person who vote AfD though.

Well when everyone is pretty far left on Lemmy, then it is no surprised that media sources that are considered center left are perceived as right wing. Spinger is pretty right leaning, yet they still have a few moderate or left of center media houses under their wing.

Politico however has high credibility and factual reporting compared to let’s say Bild.

Wrong. Not only is Huawei a state owned enterprise but it regularly relays user info to China. So it is not unreasonable to believe Huawei may be spying on people. Additionally, Reporters Without Borders tells reporters to be extra cautious with Huawei devices and best not use them.

Also your whataboutism is just a sign of bad faith.

Watch out Germany. We are going to have marriage tourism!
