Personally, I’d like to see “Canada’s Guantanamo” shut down. Let me put it this way, in Guantanamo a bunch of adults were force-fed protein shakes to break a hunger strike, which is pretty twisted BUT… The place I’m angry about starved families with young kids until the kids ate dirt just to sate their hunger pains, and it’s MY fucking country doing it? NO. STOP IT. They’re innocent kids and even supposed to be Canadian citizens, you arrogant french-speaking oil fund baby bastard, GET THEM AND THEIR PARENTS HOME NOW TRUDEAU.
Sorry, just pointing out a place I don’t approve of that I can actually back up with evidence and to be clear my previous statement isn’t an anti-China view so much as an anti-corruption view that happened to be based on flawed info. I’m sure the CCP has done some nasty things but I have no evidence of anything specific, and what country at this point HASN’T turned out to have done hypocritical things to people who did nothing wrong?
Hopefully that can be changed by the nature of federated social media, I kind of feel like there was an atmosphere of persecution of outsiders on Reddit that I haven’t encountered here; When I say something, I know if I’ve screwed up because a reply will point it out. On reddit, the downvoting affected things but no one ever said why. Plus I can look at a person’s post history and figure out if they hate me for my opinion and are just causing trouble, or if they simply disagree and I should consider them a valid critic.
