What's your reason for speaking out against the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)? - The quietly dangerous threat that's not being talked about

[Legoshi]

The Chinese Communist Party has a very sly way of putting down soft power. These methods include infiltrating entertainment and media platforms very quietly under the guise of woke ideology and big name companies like Disney and Hollywood are selling themselves out to CCP backed institutions to gain market share in China. They have no problem banning websites like Facebook or refusing western media coverage while having propaganda outlets like CGTN and New China TV based all over the globe but when the West bans Huawei and WeChat they throw a tantrum. Wumao logic claims that Westerners don't have much news sources either. This is a fallacy. People in democratic societies can look at differing news sources and criticize them freely without being arrested.

Meanwhile, they violate the boundaries of other Asian nations like Taiwan, Vietnam the Phillipines, and Japan while claiming sovereignty that never existed (ie China never historically had ownership of the South China Sea and they sold Senkaku islands to Japan in the 80s). However, media coverage about these issues has been very scarce other than the Huawei scandal and the ongoing Xinjiang Uyghur camps most likely because of their threats. That's very concerning to me because the repression of free speech and pro CCP propagands needs to be discussed without accusations of "sinophobia" and "racism".

TLDR; The CCP needs to be stopped and told to leave other nations alone. CCP ≠ Chinese people

 

[Penis Drager]

They're Chinese. Do I need another reason to think they're shit?

 

[Vulva Gape]

Because they eat bats.

 

[bigfuccbuck]

Literally the biggest threat right now

I have no problem with Chinese people who, and I know this will come as a shock to the MSM, are not a monolith(will probably come to quite a shock to the CCP if they lose enough power down the line as well) but the CCP and Communism as an ideology is a tremendous negative and needs to be eliminated. I believe in time it will extinguish itself but that will take longer with governments consisting largely of appeasers, dullards, and cowards. Standing by and waiting for it to collapse on its own will also increase the body count so...not great.

The real question is how the US will hold up to China and how we will back up our allies in countries near to them. We have a tradition of bailing on those countries when things get tough and it looks like the Biden Regime will stay that course.

Though there is the outside chance that once Disney realizes they do not want their shit and major sports start realizing a billion people with nothing are worth less than a few million with expendable income the CCP will have to go into supernova mode at which point the world will respond violently to their attempt to consume everything around them to stay alive.

I originally wanted to buy a Xiaomi, but was skeptical and didn't because like Huawei and Lenovo, they could be CCP-influenced. Instead I bought an Xperia and it turned out to be a great decision because they've been banned from selling products to the US because of potential Chinese Communsit ties. I also sold my Huawei phone for a used Nokia Android phone and my Lenovo tablet for cash. I've completely stopped buying products from any Chinese companies. Nip it in the bud and stop giving them money. That's what will hurt them the hardest.

Everyone knows that China is an interesting country, and not all Chinese people are bad people. However, the issue we have with the CCP is the fact that they’re trying to overrule Hong Kong and Taiwan by claiming that their REAL peaceful protests are illegitimate and claiming that they are a threat to democracy.

The worst part about the CCP is that they may (or may not, again it’s still alleged) have Chinese agents that are subterfuging the West by inserting their propaganda into the likes of media, entertainment and Silicon Valley. It is all to maintain dominance, without even attempting to care about the fact that their nukes aren’t even as strong as America’s.

At least not yet.

Spoiler: Overall point

Obviously, posting this won’t change the direction for China being a superpower in 2050. I’ll be in my mid-50’s when this happens, if I’m lucky to live up to that point. Either way, to ignore the strong influence of China’s Communist Party would be to ignore the fact that the West is obviously trying to guilt trip gullible people into embracing neo-progressive politics and political correctness, while foreign nations take over America with their influence and leaving USA looking more and more like a shell that it has been since the last decade and a half.

There should be a ban on Chinese made products with deceptively American brand names. I first noticed how bad it was when browsing a Harbor Freight Tools. Pittsburgh hand tools and Chicago electric power tools are 2 examples of Chinese made products with American names.

Also, there is sly misrepresentation in some companies of how "American" their products are. SimpliSafe is an example, where they purchase all of their manufactured parts from China, but assemble and ship them in the US to seem more American based than they really are.

China is a joke, I'm a big history geek and thing their history is amazing and I have a lot of pity for the Chinese in past 5k years (esp past 200) but they call themselves commies, act like an caps but it's more an oligarchy than Russia.

They are just fucking over the avg person so badly and trying to fuck over avg person in other nations and while not the fault of them other nations choose to cuck to them, we do so I kinda get mad they get sucked up to.

 

[Lord of the Large Pants]

Because China is asshole.

 

[Alkaline Cab]

Do we really need a reason to speak out against the CCP? Anti-freedom bad, even neo-libs know that.
They just like the status quo and love to consoom, they know but don't really care

 

[Scratch This Nut]

They managed to destroy and inhibit thousands of years of culture and that is a fucking tragedy.

 

[ArnoldPalmer]

In the past five or so years they've been honest to god outdoing the Jews when it comes to subverting this country. Their tech, (stolen) hardware, and (purchased western) software is in all of our homes. Their shitty mediocre-at-best goods are planned obsolescence on bath salts, by coincidence of them simply not being made well, has caused a slow death of our economy, they are corrupting our society with propaganda, and even upholding SJW tenets just to ruin us politically. even if they weren't doing all of that, I'd still heavily dislike them for basically being insects.

They (Communist Chinese) don't seem to feel like the rest of humanity does. What the fuck is up with them eating baby birds out of their nests, running over babies multiple times to make sure they're dead, crushing their co-workers with hydraulic presses, and just shrugging it off like it's nothing? It's like they're all sociopaths.
Children of Chinese nationals don't seem to have this flat affect about them.

 

[TFT-A9]

They peed in my Coke.

 

[No Exit]

China isn't cool anymore.

 

[melty]

But even the MSM and libs are now going for the "Chinese people aren't the CCP!" line. It's not cool anymore. I am now in favor of the Chinese communist party.

Motherfuckers spread a virus that caused my favorite Mom and Pop bookstore to close during the pandemic.

 

[Thomas Paine]

CCP propaganda is all over social media and youtube. All those taoist cultivation game ads, the "amazing technology techiniques" videos on FB that just show bugmen using 100yr old farm equipment or chinese models in dresses using factory/agricultural machinery.

They have influencers on TikTok (of course) and Instagram that dress real nice and show 5sec clips of their upscale nice apartments that their perfect party scoreTM allows them to have.

 

[The Man With No Name]

Communists aren't people, and also the Chinese make the shittiest products known to man at the lowest prices and utterly destroy low and mid ends of markets because of it. They are able to do this because slave labor is legal in China and even if it weren't, the state owns (through its party members) all of the manufacturing.

I think the first time as a young adult I really started to hate China was when I heard about the suicide nets outside of the iPhone factory. When you don't even let people kill themselves, then you're a barbaric shithole that has removed autonomy from its people, and must be destroyed.

 

[L50LasPak]

As an American who is, shall we say, less than pleased with the way my country has been conducting itself I think its important to keep in perspective just how much worse China is and how it is in no way an alternative to the failing American system. What the champange socialists and Reddit Communists don't seem to realize is that China's economy is attached at the hip to America's and is in many ways significantly more corrupt.

Though, in some ways I think the threat China poses is overstated, and that the internal weaknesses of the country will make themselves known in the next decade, probably spectacularly so. But that does remain to be seen, and I suppose despite my harsh opinion I can understand why some people are so worried about it right now.
