  • My position on what? Politics is a mess of interconnected pieces. I’m an anarchist and I distrust states, especially ones that have proven themselves untrustworthy. I agree that tearing down one superpower risks a huge and awful domino effect, but i dont have the depth of global politics knowledge to come up with some kind of large scale plan - and even if i did, then what? What would my plan matter without any support from basically anyone.

    You act like me pointing out why people think you insulted them somehow means my priority is opposing China. What I oppose (in this instance! Because it seemed to be what you were implying!) is people who believe China can do no wrong because they oppose the USA. “The enemy of my enemy is my friend” only works on a temporary and situational basis with a large amount of skepticism.




  • Your problem is that your insult is not directed at anything specific, so it’s easy to assume it’s at this community as a whole. Your jargon also identifies you as a probable tankie, and when tankies say “western chauvinism” they usually mean “not gargling china’s boot”.

    Western chauvinism is bad and should be called out, but it shouldn’t be replaced with eastern chauvinism. You don’t have to be on the side of one state to oppose another state.
