I’m pro-NATO and against all dictators and autocrats. We are not the same.
Can NATO ever get rid of its own dictators and autocrats? Dunno but it wouldn’t be as bad if it could
Call it democracy, but in reality it’s just lobbyism.
Especially in Germany and in the US.
Germany and the US are very different.
When was the last time China invaded anyone? Including China here is a baseless equivocation and basically yellow scare nonsense.
Why do you feel the need to defend China? They could have put any powerful country in there really, but there aren’t many left when you have NATO and Russia already
- China is a superpower, nuke-holder
- China failed and still fails to condemn russia’s actions and still see russia as their partner.
- Communist countries stick together
- China is the only superpower not involved with the current war that remains aggressive towards NATO/US
- China has now completely took over Hong-Kong
- And they’re openly planning to do the same with Taiwan.
All these 6 combined is why china is worthy being next to russia in this meme.
Hey hey let’s not call China communist
Let’s not call Russia communist either lol. People who think that communism is still a threat in '23 are stuck in their cold war dystopianism.
You mean china that is lead by the communist party of china?
Good marketing, like “Democratic People’s Republic of Korea”
And both in practice something totally else
Can you name a communist country that is radically different than china?
Because I can name 20 different democratic countries that are radically different than north korea, in turn not changing the meaning of “democracy”.
An outlier doesn’t mean the word changed its meaning.
It’s more like it’s impossible to name how China could be communist. They’d need a revolution or something
I’d bet it’s not the first on the list to have it’s people take power
I’m saying that china + soviet union has defined and continue to define what communism is. It’s a word that’s tainted forever.
Just like, for example, Christianity is defined by modern Christians.

Yellow scare sounds like a very racist term

Nukes
It is a term used to describe racists, yes. Which the vast majority of China fear-mongering is deeply rooted in.
Nukes are the reason they’re the same? India, Israel, North Korea, and Pakistan also have nukes.
Let’s use racism to describe racists? Seems reasonable
I knew you’d use the “other countries have nukes too” statement. Well, other countries aren’t as hostile as China is, except North Korea, but are you going to tell me it doesn’t get the China treatment? Lol. Israel is basically an extension of NATO at this point, Pakistan isn’t viewed favourably at all and India isn’t particularly hostile

Do we count EEZ encroachments in the Pacific? Only reason why China isn’t as militarily adventurous as Russia right now, is because they know they’re not ready yet. Not really yellow scare nonsense when China itself (Republic of) is concerned about this.
Do we count disputes over territorial waters as the same as war? Are you actually serious with this question?
The Spratly Islands are China’s Afghanistan?
