Vague missives? You’re the one who literally said,
Why is it that you folks constantly shit on everything while offering zero idea of specifically what it is you want?
Then I told you what the people you referred to as “you folks” specifically want and you’re suddenly incredibly defensive. Get a grip.
Geez I was literally just answering your question. You don’t have to get so bent out of shape because I told you something specific that people actually want.
People want the US to stop sending bombs and weapons to Israel. There is no indication the democrats plan on endorsing such a proposal anytime soon. Seeing as it is it likely the only way to stop the carnage Israel is inflicting on Gaza, anything short of that just comes across as empty words.
How do you think that would even work? Do you have any clue how absurd that sounds? It’s like John Birch Society level paranoia.
Lol wow you really went retro with that one.
I just don’t believe you can type it.
What does that mean? Do I not have fingers? Omg am I an AI stuck in a simulation and my code literally prevents me from typing out some magic spell for no discernible reason?! 😲
Or maybe you started this thread by taking swings at windmills and as a consequence I just don’t take you seriously enough to feel the need to prove anything to you. I’m amazed you haven’t considered that.
But hey I get it. That tinfoil hat sure is shiny and you wear it well. It would be such a shame if you decided to take it off.
Okay so am I right to assume you’re just looking for a reason to justify your dismissive smug attitude? Because that’s genuinely what I think you’re doing.
China has plenty of right wingers and social conservatives living there. They just can’t organize for their beliefs outside of the existing political structures.
“yes” or “no”
Give me another one! I can do this all day. Lol
the words
I’ll only jumps through hoops for you CanadaPlus 😉
in my experience you folks don’t tend to shy away when flamed.
Well I think like most people online MLs aren’t above posting snarky replies or acting dismissive especially when confronted by the same attitudes. Most know that countering disinformation or trying to organize for their political aims online is generally a waste of time.
Why? Like what do you think I stand to gain from posting something because you told me to? Lol
Thanks for taking a look! I actually appreciate it.
I also want to clarify, I’m by no means saying that this is a problem that China needs to find a way to address. I just find it weird that people think that anyone would want to put a positive spin on youth joblessness when it’s not outlandishly high relative to other countries.
As it is, everyone’s thinking you must be under duress.
Do people seriously think that? Chinese censorship doesn’t work like that. They don’t care if one of their citizens uses a VPN to post about how the Tiananmen Square Massacre actually happened anonymously on some random foreign website. It’s baffling to me that anyone would think that they do.
The reality usually is that asking to copy and paste something vaguely tangential to the conversation at hand just comes across as dismissive and infantilizing. Most people don’t want to jump through hoops to be taken seriously and so they don’t engage further. Assuming that they don’t want to engage because they’re under duress is just letting your confirmation bias run wild.
There’s no point jumping through hoops for someone whose mind is already made up about you. It’s more fun for everyone if we just get into emoji fights and post snarky comments.
Isn’t making up guys that don’t exist so you can feel intellectually superior just the best?! 😀
Here’s the citation which I already provided.

The numbers you’re using aren’t comparable. They’re different statistics calculated in different ways. Use a standardized metric like the world bank if you want to make meaningful comparisons.
