DO NOT COPY-PASTE THIS ON LEMMY LOL, THIS IS A BRAINSTORM FOR OUR USE

We should pool our sources and evidence in this thread so that people with approved lemmy accounts can start spreading it there.

Feel free to contribute lol, it's a lot of work for me to do on my own and I might miss stuff or make mistakes, although I'm gonna keep going help or no

I’ll grab links in a second (and there are some good articles I’d like to find that gather lots of evidence in one place), but here’s some stuff off the top of my head:

I don’t really have much off the top of my head for Uighur genocide stuff

I'll stick articles down here, some of which aggregate lots of evidence in one place

/u/Awoo suggests keeping things short and digestible instead of posting long effortposts, since libs will just count on people not reading the whole thing and they will point at it and say “See? They deny the Uighur genocide” or “See, they deny Tiananmen” https://hexbear.net/post/271448/comment/3514089

    Okay found out what Lemmy is and I hate it. Like wtf is this.

    Hey, tankies, decent countries don’t have to violently suppress their populations and then lie about it. Oh, and socialism is worker ownership of the means of production, not whatever the fuck they’re doing in China. (inb4 people assuming I must support the US since I hate China)

    The socialism understander has logged on. Wouldn’t even know what to reply to this since it’s literally nothing.

      Oh, and socialism is worker ownership of the means of production, not whatever the fuck they’re doing in China.

      What would you have a hypothetical, newly socialist country do at this moment in the global economy? How would you go about increasing living conditions? How would you build your productive capacity? And, most critically, how would you do it without being overwhelmed by capitalist forces?

      don’t have a lemmy, someone feel free to use this

        :parenti: The maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry.
