it’s not hate, it’s human rights and history.

q: what does that word mean?
a: a fear or dislike of China, or its people or culture

if there was space, i would include:

Gaza genocide under apartheid Israel supported by US funds and weaponry … Discussion of this genocide is being actively repressed through student visa revocation, anti-BDS laws and more. (Likewise to the post, being pro-Palestine is NOT antisemitism.)

    Thank you for your commentary. There is 100% potential for posts like this to be tainted with bigotry (especially once comments get going) so clarification is vital.

    I do take issue with you accusing me of doing “Both Sides.” My original goal was and remains just to improve the quality and accuracy of memes about the CCP; I was sick and tired of “Pooh Bear What Happened in Tiananmen Square lol” content which does tend to veer especially into the reductive, ignorant, and sometimes sinophobic.

    In the past I have focused my efforts on improving memes regarding the atrocities in the US and Palestine, and am now simply wanting to do the same thing here. I welcome feedback on how I can clarify and improve my rhetoric but I am not just going to shut up.
