- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Repeating your incorrect or racist tangents multiple times is not a virtue, not does it suddenly make your false statements suddenly true
So any unflattering critique of a section of Chinese industry is racist. Though of American, is unnote worthy. You like the CCP by any chance?
Incorrect again.
Insisting on your ethnic-based("Chinesium") value judgments rather than accepting the relevant, material non-ethnic information that disagrees with your misguided notions is racist.
You are again conflating industry with ethnicity. They are not the same thing.
Again, I'm saying that term exist because the problem exists. Again, Amazon and EBay, etc, should be blamed too. I'm arguing about governance. Race doesn't even exist. EU and US (and others) have turned a blind eye to the sale of things not meeting regulations of their markets. The Chinese government has turn a blind eye to this stuff manufacture and the flyby night shell companies selling it. I've already said China will not always be the place and it will move on to somewhere else. The problem, which you seam to want to deny exists and try to shut down will calls of racism, is not really China, it is bad governance and capitalism, and just corruption. As I said multiple times, it's not really fair China is blamed alone.
It's gratifying that you're backtracking and blaming your ignorance and irrelevant criticisms on the government and corporate responsibility, that is a step forward for you, but it doesnt negate your previous ethnic prejudice and certainly doesn't excuse you from continuing to focus on narrow irrelevant criticisms that you clearly don't understand and aren't related to the topic.
Keep it up though, your equivocation of your own racial prejudice with corporate standardization has made it much easier to knock down your arguments.
And I do appreciate you agreeing with all of my points, if belatedly and with a healthy dose of intentional misunderstanding and manipulation.
It's bizarre that you keep parroting my words to me, coated in a veneer of your own ethnic and cultural superiority, as if you've discovered, bastardized and colonized the concepts I have been explaining to you for a dozen comments.
Do you understand that you aren't allowed to be racist because you don't think race exists?
A disclaimer to cast aspersions on ethnicities you disapprove of is not what the phrase "race doesn't exist" is for.
Racism exists, but race doesn't. It's just social construct. Humans are boringly undiverse. I've not said anything else.
I don't think you understod you were being racist until maybe three comments ago when my explanations finally clicked for you, but there's no point denying what you said when anyone can scroll up.
Your myriad of prejudices about the Chinese people based specifically on their ethnicity, especially 1) The ethnic slurs 2) ignoring evidence contrary to your points because of their ethnicity and 3) misattributing non-ethnic characteristics to who "they" are examples of your racism.
You should accept and learn from your mistakes and move on, or you can vainly pretend you haven't written what you have and I can tell people to scroll up.
I think you just read what you wanted, as you wanted, to shut down discussion.
Not at all, but I understand why you're upset, your misdirection isn't working.
You work very hard at avoiding subjects to avoid accountability while speaking out the side of your mouth to pretend you aren't avoiding the subject, so it must be frustrating when that doesn't work out for you.
Unfortunately for you, I can keep multiple topics, logic and context consistent, so pretending that we were talking about something else isn't going to work.
You're wrong about Chinese EVs, pursued irrelevant tangents, realized that wouldn't work, requested independent testing of the EVs, ignored the evidence of independent testing I provided, admitted that you were wrong about Chinese manufacturing, all while leaning on baseless ethnic stereotypes to buttress your misguided assumptions and ignorance, that you tried to explain was okay because race isn't real.
You can keep trying, though.
Or you can just admit to yourself that you made mistakes and move on.
But you aren't going to trick anybody, it's way too easy to scroll up.
Sorry you think that, but I'm not paid to arguing forever and have other things to do so.......
Apologize for yourself, not for others.
