My first post here, but for those who don’t want to read through 180+ pages, here’s a (somewhat) shorter shareable debunk from my socialism faq. This post got me banned from several reddit pro-imperialist “leftist” subs btw.

I’ll guarantee it’s not the length of what I shared that’s preventing people from reading.
haha well okay but you aren’t posting that it’s too long AND you think it’s lies
I’m on board with what’s said here but I want to bring up the video leaked from the former Uyghur model and I want to know why people think increased Uyghur autonomy is bad. I don’t know if this is addressed in the document but I’ll get to reading it.
Supposedly the guy was arrested for some minor drug offence so he could be put there, if true I think that’s bad. He’s sitting there chained in a dirty room with lice and there’s propaganda against Uyghur separatism blasting outside the window. Is this accurate and is this necessary to counter terrorism? Would the Turkistan Islamic party or something similar seizing power be why separatism is a big concern or are we just saying increased autonomy of Chinese regions is bad?
Edit: These things aren’t really talked about in the document, there is some discussion about the autonomy of Chinese regions, and an acknowledgement in the intro of "That while not doing what the Western world accuses it of doing, the Chinese government deserves scrutiny for the way they are currently handling their issues, even if they aren’t actively committing a genocide against a minority group or have been perfect. As leftists we must always uphold the tradition of “a ruthless criticism of all that exists” ", which is good at least :soviet-hmm:
Oh my god this is a fucking book
Libs will literally eat up any slop that’s fed to them by “respectable” (hint: western) sources, regardless of its plausibility
That’s one of the observations that I think has potential to start people on the path towards questioning U.S. propaganda. If you point out to someone that people will believe anything a paper prints about one of the Bad Countries, it might get them started on questioning why they believe stuff so uncritically.
The best examples of this might be the WMDs in Iraq story or the “survivor of Saddam’s regime” who turned out to be the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador back in the early 90s. It has to be something well-documented as false that doesn’t involve a socialist state.
