Just curious how many of you are cool with this deeply racist image being the header for one of your comms
Thread now locked, so you can't brigade
I understand this to be an official endorsement of racism from the mod team at shitjustworks
Enjoy this attempt to find a single non-racist among our new friends
Edit: Mods are mass deleting comments lmao
certified record of good posting
Their mods seriously deleted your comment for that?! Wow just straight up defending actual WW2 Nazis
Woah, did not expect their users to defend racism that hard.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. When the Western media declares a country the new bad guy of the week suddenly racism becomes magically fine if it's against 'bad country'. The same thing happened to Arabs during the 'war on terror'.
Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.
Incredible. Not a single person could even manage a weak ass
argument against it.Just pure
Communists tried to kill my grandfather during WW2, what’s wrong about wanting to live?
I was initially mad that a mod removed that comment but the fact that the mirror comment is still there has me
classic vid
On the face of it it's so bloody unimportant - you can't post a picture of winnie the pooh? That is truly the most oppressed anyone has ever been in history.
And then you actually examine all of the articles they have - every single citation is just "reportedly" "allegedly" "this happened to one student" ass primary sources. I've never actually looked into this in depth until now (because I actually lived in China and of course saw the fucking bear everywhere), in my mind they had more convincing propaganda than that.
E.g.
“He’s propagating the issue, and frankly, I think he’s humiliated himself by being so childish about it,” says Deb Hoffmann, who holds the world record for the largest collection of Winnie the Pooh memorabilia. “If he would’ve just let it go, it would have died down by now. Plus, if the idiot knew anything, he would be delighted to be compared to Winnie the Pooh. After all, Winnie the Pooh is a very good-hearted, wonderful, thoughtful person. Being compared to Winnie the Pooh is actually quite the compliment!”
This may be the most
shit, how they invent reality and then react to what they imagined. The making up a guy to get mad at model of journalism. Also, this person quoted is literally just a collector of marketable slop? Why would I care what they think?They use the "winnie the pooh" thing because of implications and associations. If China is so cruel and evil to ban something completely harmless, what else must they be banning, in secret? There's a whole lot of unspoken assumptions around this stuff. The western press know that liberals are terminally fiction brained and so just let them fill in the blanks with their imagination.

To be fair, nobody got banned and they were the ones being obliterated on their own instance
Liberals are dogmatists who are wholly uninterested in facts
colorism
I don't think it's colorism, just racism. If it was, like, a northern Han person depicting a southern Han person that way, sure, but Xi is pretty pale.
I think some people claim that the depictions of him as whinnie are outlawed, but I haven't fact checked it myself
Oh, I see you learned about that gaggle of Anglo barbarians today. You have my sincerest condolences.
I dunked pretty hard on programming.dev before and now sh.itjust.works is racing for first for liberal chuddery.
programming.dev actually has some pretty cool people that have real discussions after everyone gets to know each other. like we have had some heated threads but almost all of them have resulted in everyone eventually going "huh, learned something new today". They seem to be mostly nerdy internet forum types and that is super cool. startrek.website seems to be the same deal.
Now shit.just.works on the other hand seems to be a bunch of anime profile pic social media users who spout reactionary thought-killing bullshit. No attempt to better understand each other or even defend. Can't even just have a normal discussion about hobbies, entertainment, or tech without one of them jumping in to say something despicable then act outraged when someone asks "wtf, why can't you be normal".
That's possible and I believe you, though when I spot programming.dev people it's often when I'm already seeing a terrible liberal techbro take on a thread, making me associate that suffix with terrible liberal techbro takes. I've had a much better time overall with startrek.website people myself.
Now shit.just.works on the other hand seems to be a bunch of anime profile pic social media users
That's been my experience so far too.
Federating with sh.it.piss.balls was even dumber than federating with the Wehraboos at lemm.pee.
Did our users
in favor of this shit to prove that electoralism is a fuck? Because congratulations, you've proven once more that it is. We need more democratic centralism up in this mfer and defed that stain of an instance immediately, what the hell did you expect from this? Almost any not openly leftist sub that is fine federating us is some horseshit and will always have way too many reactionaries to let them in here. You privileged fucks could show a minimum of respect for the vulnerable part of our userbase that these people come to harass here, but no, actually taking care of your queer,neurodivergent and racialized comrades is too much when it inconveniences you by giving you less opportunity to "dunk on libs". Make an account there when you want to do that. Don't bring this here.i think the admin team prob could use some expanding and to be faster to use the banhammer tbh. i dont think the admins are generally privileged though, a lot are trans too.
ive noticed a number of trans people on other instances popping into /c/traa at least, and some even made accounts because of /c/traa and it hitting their front page.
Let the record show that I voted against federation the first time and didn't bother voting the second time.
To be fair, it has been very funny

@Asymptote@lemmy.dbzer0.com how is this racist?
You did a whole lot of scratching there. Including the mods lol. Interesting how mods on all those "leftist", "tolerant", "antiracist", "pro-LGBT" instances seems to be very tolerant to racism, fascism, homophobia, but will ban anyone pointing out that they are.
I'm surprised they're still federated with us considering they made that community. I guess it's because they otherwise wouldn't be able to see our posts
mmmm-mods help someone is here making me think about racism in my midst! remove this miscreant at once!

Liberals trying to explain how it's not racist to paint an Asian yellow.
I mean like the character is yellow? Would any Asian Simpsons character immediately be racist?
You do realize Asia is a massive part of the world with many people, there's probably gonna be at least some relation to yellow that doesn't need to be racist
heres a question. is this racist?
are these depictions of both fictional and real black people racist. for context I am black and im am using these to counter your argument. many people in the past have argued that these images arent racist because they are just deceptions of black people and their features. its obviously not ok to depict a black man as a monkey. but I could sit here and make the same incredulous claims as you. that black people have dark skins and big lips so that makes it ok to exaggerate those features in a grotesque way.
side by side how can you not see the similarites
Uncritical support to our Proacted posters war against reactionaries on lemmy
That Momo baby kept saying "time to die" and then deleted all the hexbears' comments. lmao
hope some of it was archives or screen-capped before the lil' baby moderator lost it
ah MWG, made a couple posts about it a few months ago on LG and Hexbear https://lemmygrad.ml/post/906144 https://hexbear.net/post/277369
Racist Tally Emote when?
Why is Winnie the Pooh Xi Jinping racist? I'm ootl apparently
It's not. It started out as a meme mocking Xi, and it always has been.
it isn't
