    Anyone who praises Xi Jingping, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and <insertAuthoritarianMurdererHere> as hard as I routinely see on lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad is an awful person and deserves derision, contempt, and distrust. They can call themselves a “leftist”, “socialist”, “communist”, or a whatever-ist. Fundamentally, they’re edgelord bootlickers and temporarily inconvenienced dictators-in-waiting.

    “wHaTaBoUt USA, iSrAeL, nAtO, etc.?”

    You can hate “The West”, their people, their foreign policy, and their economics.

    Doesn’t mean you should suck dictators’ dicks because they’re “not The West”.

        How is that homophobic? There’s no mention of the gender of the bootlicking edgelords.

        You don’t have to be a man to suck dick.

          I’m pretty sure there’s some homophobic roots in there. But that aside, why would anyone use cock sucking as an insult? Doing that would only discourage cock sucking, and who in their right mind would want less cock sucking in the world. Makes no sense.

            why would anyone use cock sucking as an insult?

            Probably because of the perceived power dynamic between the cock sucker and cock suckee.

              There shouldn’t be a power dynamic under normal sucking conditions. Maybe if you have a power dynamic kink, then sure, do your thing, but regardless, people shouldn’t turn consensual sex acts into insults, that only discourages fun.

        Well, to start, he’ll never relinquish power. According to him, he’s in charge forever. That alone is all one needs to thoroughly distrust and oppose.

          thats not how chinese democracy works, and i’m not sure where you got that from.

          he will be replaced when their “parliament” of sorts decides hes not doing a good job anymore.
