Its funny how dunking on both PRC and the current US administration is being a “brainwashed American” 🤣
“I bet you think Tiananmen Square massacre was real too.”
It’s this really where we’re at? Pretending it didn’t even happen? Accusing those who acknowledge the event of being brainwashed? Jesus Christ.

unrolling a banner insupporting the Soviet right to assembly in 1977(?), and getting arrested for it.How many months away are we from that here in the States, do you think? My bet is on ~12, but the timetable is already faster than I expected, so I might be a bit optimistic with that number.
got a link about that banner stuff? sounds like an interesting read

Ahh shiet, tankie invaded lemmy zip too.
they tend to do that. but they won’t ever invade spaces that are critical of them
