The whole article is quite funny, especially the lists of most used tankie words, or the branding of foreignpolicy as a left-wing news source.

    Great points. If they bothered to do any actual analysis, though, they wouldn’t have been able to reach the conclusion that we’re extremists. “People who think the US should stop provoking and prosecuting wars that displace and kill millions” and “people who think children shouldn’t starve” don’t have the same ring as “far left extremism”; it wouldn’t let them do the enlightened centrist, ‘all extremes are bad’.

    Jfc, chingchang? They can’t even hide their racism when their trying to pretend they’re not racist. These will be the same people who depict Xi as Winnie the Pooh while criticising the CPC’s approach to Xinjiang and pretend that they don’t see the racist connotations. Wankers.
