The free market does not judge on a moral or ideological basis so there is no hypocrisy
:hahyou:
You are right, America never fully delivered on the promise of the free market and liberty. Taxation is theft and early in America on people said as much. As always the problem is government which facilitates monopolies and makes everything more inefficient. Utopian unconstrained visions seem to win over people for some reason and no matter how ludicrous they are on paper. If enough taxes are thrown on a problem then surely it must go away and there is no possibility that the people making a dime out of it will have any incentive to keep the problems alive or tackle problems that are unsolvable. We need more capitalism all over the world, not less. If you think China is doing the right thing and propagandize for them then why aren't you also celebrating nazicommies like Biden? He is doing the same thing as Xi is doing in China. Hampering the economy to gain power for some political class with different excuses.

If you want to talk about hypocrisy then why not deal with that huge contradiction? That wumaos don't seem to approve of the nazicommie politispergs in the US doing the exact same thing as the ones that is currently holding the collective balls of the Chinese in an iron vice. When the American regressive left censors media that people would otherwise have spent money on then that is not as based as when daddy Xi is doing it? I don't think anyone has any right to decide what I get to spend my money on and enjoy. Are Chinese parents not supposed to be good at parenting? If this is the case then why would the government need to limit the time kids spend in MMOs? Is that not a job for the parent?

I don't know about you but I would rather enjoy games a little bit too much than be raised by the state.

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
Yeah,we all know that true liberalism have never been tried before...or should we call it lockeism?!
No, I'm saying that, like usual, you're kinda retarded.
:liberals:

If you want to complain about "Liberalism" you can complain about the decades before, especially the 60s-00s, or the gradual implementation of "liberal idea(l)s" and principles since about the 17th century as you have identified it. What you're complaining about isn't "liberalism" though, because the people behind it don't support any of its core tenets. They're not "liberal radicals" trying to implement radical liberal ideals like absolute Free Speech and individual rights or something, they're "illiberal" and outright hostile to it. The kind of people that subverted liberal institutions and are explicitly trying to dismantle them and overthrow the "current order" aren't even calling themselves liberals.

This is like complaining about "Monarchy" because there's always mobs forming at the tail end of it putting up guillotines, yelling shit like "death to the king" and terrorizing specific groups of people. Fucking Monarchists!

Taxation is theft
Hahahahahah but renovating infrastructures and government utilities are a right.....geee 500IQ there.
Governments have a couple of valid important functions but they are very limited in scope and number. Basically they only have to enforce the law to ensure people retain their private property and in the national model of government provide a national army. That is it. They are shit at infrastructure. The worst thing are their social engineering policies and programs. I'm not some commie that thinks access to water, food and housing is a human right. I don't even think the government should be in charge of roads.

Imagine being so gullible that you hand over your money to the government before they provide you with any sort of service. A very low base tax that doesn't scale would be enough to provide for both law, police and a military.

The only reason you think it's "way less retarded" is because the only thing you view is CCP's foreign propaganda.
??? Cool story bro.
Where would one view such things? To the extent that CCP makes foreign propaganda it's geared towards libtards and is so low effort that it's clear SJWism is entirely Western in origin.

China has a fucking hotline+website for reporting your neighbors directly to the government for basically anything.
https://www.12377.cn/index.html
And this is totally different to Kwan red flag laws, jan 6th snitching, doxxing because...

Let's review some of the things that can land you in trouble
https://www.12377.cn/jbzn.html?tab=4
4. Promote terrorism and extremism;
Sure hope you aren't an extremist. Huh, I wonder who gets to define extremist anyways...
5. Promote ethnic hatred and ethnic discrimination;
WOW TOTALLY BASED!!!
6. Spread violent, obscene and pornographic information;
Woops, hope you never made any violent statements.
7. Fabricating or disseminating false information to disrupt economic order and social order;
Gee, I wonder who gets to decide what a false statement is...
Wow congrats on going through all this effort to prove that China is censorious.

But all of these censored items are quite sensible things to censor from the point of view of an authoritarian government. This isn't retarded like the issues SJWs censor over such as trannies and black criminals.

If you decide to move to China ........... you jerk off to the thought of living there.
Yeah okay dude, you have to make stuff up to cope lol.

I'm not sure if you even read my original statement, which is that CPC ruling class is way less retarded than SJWs and that they represent a consistent and serious ideology, whereas SJW ideology is unstable.

Even under the current commie government America is one of the best armed places in the world. A truly free nation is the hardest to pillage because everyone is ready to defend their interests and don't rely on big daddy government for it. This is why you can basically be crowned king with a knife in England while that shit won't fly in America. Even a pistol is no big deal. The riots only happened because they were government sanctioned. Like in China however the commies want to grab the guns so they can pillage freely and the will people unable to resist big gov. China is much easier to pillage and the commie party are experts at doing it.

Shit, I could pillage China with nothing but my dick.
I'm not sure if you even read my original statement, which is that CPC ruling class is way less retarded than SJWs and that they represent a consistent and serious ideology, whereas SJW ideology is unstable.
You ain't fooling anyone. The only reason you think the chinks are better is because they are more nazi than commie and don't let Black people into the party. Racist yellow devils.

Let's say you are a principled liberal and you believe that various deviants have the same right to exist and exercise and promote their style of life as any other cultural or religious denomination. Since that's what you believe, the validity of this statement has to be upheld by the state institution (even in its 'Night Watchman' form that libertarians subscribe to) in forms of law norms and protection from violence and actions directed at curtailing the freedom to exercise the said deviances.

So, if anyone believes that these forms of behaviour are not permissible, they are not upholding liberal values and thus have to be prosecuted to keep harmony in your liberal utopia. If we extend this notion to the global level, it means these norms have to be upheld everywhere so that the trannies etc are universally enjoying their right to exist and propagate (that's how liberal protectionism and various forms of R2P doctrine are born, btw). :lol:

What is even your point here? As far as I know China was the very first country to institute lockdowns to combat corona. Hell, at the very least they have sealed off Wuhan from the rest of the country if nothing else. If you want to dunk on lolbetarians than at least do it with something they are actually guilty of.

Its not different. Then again I have no idea what your point is here because one thing being shit does not somehow absolve the other of being shit. They are equally awful.

Trannies and blacks are merely excuses for the masses. The actual targets are always political dissidents or potential competitors to government approved monopolies. If you want a easy example just try to go through all the reporting surrounding Trumps supposed "racism" and "homophobia". The guy basically did nothing with either "minority" for the entirety of his 4 years in office, yet the "SJW mobs" were basically acting like he was one minute away from signing a executive order to euthanize all queers.

The SJW are just the modern version of the Mussolini's brown shirts. The only difference is that they are not honest about who they work for.

China jails labor activists. It's not all trannies and pro-American shills.

Nice. As always the Donut is right, chinks are bitches and when big dick capitalism comes they open up. No unions and other bullshit to drive up the cost of production.

This is a slav forum for European video games mainly.
Not that that's any better, just saying.

Nobody is interested in discussing shitty slav knockoffs of superior American video games, especially when they keep filling them full of trannies and fags.

At least this timeline is interesting to watch.
Also didn't Blizzard have like 4 or 5 Chinese focused Mobile games in development..? They were going "all-in" on big China money, even dumping off shares to Chinese corporations so they could legally operate in that county.

Oops. between this and the lawsuit.. Bobby is having a bad couple of months. Lmfao

EDIT

Oh sorry, didn't mean to go off-topic - please continue bitching about socialism and liberalism.

They did. In fact it was pretty much their whole battleplan for the future. Those rumors of Blizz shutting down in 2022 are getting more and more real by the day.

That would explain a lot, because some of the justifications despite the ample evidence provided are mind-boggling. It also helps that user tags seem to be fitting.

https://www.scmp.com/tech/policy/ar...nies-vow-boycott-overseas-platforms-and-close

China’s video game companies vow to boycott overseas platforms and close loopholes for young gamers amid tighter limits
  • China’s video game industry association and 213 gaming companies, including Tencent and NetEase, pledged to crack down on access to overseas platforms
  • The pact is not legally binding, but it puts in writing a pledge to remove content targeted by authorities such as ‘effeminate men’ and money worship
The document asserts companies commitments to ban various types of content recently targeted by authorities, including “effeminate men”, money worship and “gay love”. Content deemed “politically harmful” or “historically nihilistic” will also be boycotted. The same goes for games with mechanics considered to be only designed to generate profit or traffic.
“This article is aimed primarily at online game stores such as Steam and the Epic Games Store,” Yu said. “Because game licenses in China are restricted, Chinese gaming companies going overseas is going to be a big trend. How they will enforce this article remains to be seen.”
Steam, run by US-based Valve Corp, is the world’s largest distributor of PC games. While legally games are supposed to be licensed for sale in China, Steam has never been blocked in the country and accepts Chinese payment systems. The platform had 30 million users in China in 2018, according to an estimate from market research firm Niko Partners. Steam launched an official store in China this year with far fewer titles, leading to fears among gamers that the main Steam platform may eventually be blocked by the Great Firewall.

Communists and Neo-Nazis are sore losers and hate the US for ruining their beloved regimes. They'll bow like the little slaves they are to any authoritarian piece of turd, even if it's China.

I wonder how these types of people feel about China potentially banning their favorite hobbies. What kinds of excuses do they make in their minds?

As someone on this thread already said, China is only a different form of degeneracy.

While it is commendable to ban SJW shit, CCP is just putting restrictions for its own sake.

https://gamesfromchina.com/2021/09/03/jd-com-removes-87-playstation-titles-from-chinese-store/
JD.com removes 87 Playstation titles from Chinese store
The relevant laws prohibit games that have not been government-approved from being sold, as well as games that “harm national unity, sovereignty, and territorial integrity,” “promote cults and superstition,” “reveal state secrets, harm national interests, or harm national honor and interests,” or “violate social ethics,” among a list of ten offenses.

All these restrictions over media are more in line with Xi's road to life-long dictatorship.

https://www.rfa.org/english/news/china/exams-08122021132625.html
Shanghai Bans English Exams Amid Calls For Less English Teaching
Veteran political journalist Gao Yu said the new policies appeared aimed at raising a new generation of Red Guards, the youthful political activists of the Mao-era Cultural Revolution (1966-1976).

"Chinese students have always been forced to memorize political theory in this way," Gao told RFA. "Back in the day, we had to learn Mao Zedong Thought. Now it's Xi Jinping Thought."

"This mode of education is lifted straight from the Mao Zedong era ... during which students were turned into Red Guards," she said.

Xi already passed a constitutional amendment that allows the President to serve an unlimited number of five-year terms in 2018.
Now he wants to make sure no one even thinks to oppose his reign.

USA is in decline, no doubt, but China cannot be the alternative.

:deathclaw:

How come,having different political systems is not a degeneracy? You do know that most people don't see reality like deluded kwans and don't see authority and strong leaders as a bad thing,right ? Sooo you think that some magical freedom is better than healthy and coherent society with rational restrictions?
