    Smuggard cracker shit like this is genuinely what makes me hope what happens to Amerika is bloody, violent, and receives the appellation of "Amerika’s Century of Humiliation’. There is literally no way for me to grow any more disgusted by or contemptuous of western crackery; this shit doesn’t buffer overflow.

      Agreed, I hope by the time all is said and done, “Amerikkka” ceases to exist on a map altogether, and balkanizes into 50 or more states, all of which either reject their predecessor state, or are global pariahs. The west European and Anglosphere age of imperialism and white supremacy must never, never be allowed to return again as I see it. Only indigenism and the dismantling of the western institutions that have caused the overwhelming majority of human suffering for the past 500 years can pave the way for redeeming the west in any shape or form, or returning the white supremacist societies back to earth with the rest of humanity IMO.

      If I have any say in it (and I intend to do my part)- America will be remembered as far worse than Nazi Germany, and as its ideological progenitor. Humanity will have greatly failed if it is remembered as anything but.

      I don’t think you should advocate for giving America a century of humiliation. Are we just gonna let them get off easy after a measly 100 years?

    Rational wiki sure is something. I can’t remember if they fixed their “Gamergate” and “Feminism” articles or not, and I’m too lazy to check. But uhh…I’m sure you can guess what a bunch of edgy internet atheist Facts and Logic bros had to say about those two topics.

    🧠 Scientific Socialism: An Infantile Disorder

    Edit: RationalWiki is merely liberal. The really hardcore “rationality” is over at LessWrong.

    Never ceases to amaze me that liberals have to either lie about what we’re saying or present reasonable statements of facts as dangerous extremism.

  • Just look what the Uighurs are doing in Syria

    Links to [Racism]…

    Mao already freed Tibet

    “already freed” links to [Bullshit] LOL. Such rationality! Such logic. I shall merely declare it bullshit, and voila, it is.

    Taiwan is part of China and a US puppet at the same time

    Links to [Doublethink]. Rationality and things being more complicated than a light-switch? No can do!

    China lifted 800 million people out of poverty!

    Links to nothing! At least they are willing to take this and not argue about it?

    95% of Chinese support the CPC!

    Argument ad populum they declare. I can into bingo too! How long before I can cross off “brainwashing” from mine? Even if they somehow veer outside of that, what is this supposed to mean? Ah, you see, the fact that people like the CPC doesn’t make it good. What? Should the Chinese actually hate the CPC, like Statsians hate their parties? Such rationality! A hated party is good, a liked party is bad.

    I took a look at Argument ad populum. They had this quote from Bill Maher:

    Eat shit. Twenty trillion flies can’t be wrong.

    Such rationality! HUMANS AND FLIES ARE NOT THE SAME. It doesn’t matter if twenty trillion flies do something. THEY ARE NOT HUMANS. IT DOES NOT APPLY TO HUMANS. HUMANS AND FLIES ARE DIFFERENT. SUCH FUCKING RATIONALITY.

    George Orwell, 1984

    … OF FUCKING COURSE

      The “800 million out of poverty” one is a strange one. Obviously they have no way to debunk or disprove it, so they just kind of grumble about it. They grumble and complain privately to themselves how much they hate China lifting people out of poverty because it means they can’t complain openly about evil Chinese government keeping people poor. I’ve had some very strange conversations around poverty alleviation. Westerners love the idea of it, but hate the idea that some random western charity isn’t doing it. They hate the idea that the thing that fixes poverty is organised government action, not westerners allaying their guilty conscience by donating their pocket change.

      Don’t forget the hyperlink at the beginning that links to “points refuted a thousand times” page, despite none of these points ever being refuted.

    I had free time and spent way too much time clicking through things.

    Most of their “resources debunking these arguments” don’t touch the arguments in question. Their listed arguments basically only touch on HK and nothing else. Where is the proof that RFA isn’t an op? Or that Winnie the Pooh actually is banned? Nothing about Tibet either.

    They just presented a bunch of arguments they disagree with and…showed that they are right?
