So, you believe the ratcheting up in rhetoric regarding Taiwan as of late and the historic re-election of Xi for a third term, increasing Chinese nationalism, the purging of dissidents are just ghost stories? Man, that's some pretty strong Kool aid you've been drinking.

The logical disconnect is a bit scary. I mean, I'm talking to you right now aren't I?

You can also find them in any Putin apologist thread or in their mother's basement. Good times.

Using "mother's basement" as an insult in a time where housing is unaffordable for many. Really in touch with the common person, ain't you?

Tankie is when you can't afford housing

I'm sorry about your situation. Have you tried getting job or asking for a bigger allowance? Maybe you can make furry porn, I heard that pays well in your circles.

I wasn't actually expecting actual discourse with a consultant who thinks poor people are subhuman. The fact that you use wealth as an insult is pretty telling.

The part about the mask, is basically a metaphor of fascists using a liberal mask to hide their true self.
