You're assuming this is the first time I've come across any information about China. Or he'll even the first time I've seen an argument from pro china Tankie. But it's not, I consider myself a socialist, I've read into the histories of china and Russia and a bit on other socialist countries and used to be quite pro china myself, but the more I read, the more information I got about how china actually operates, as I talked to actual people from China, HK and surrounding countries, and as my values matured I realise I can't support the Chinese state (and that's it's not exactly even socialist) because its so authoritarian, corrupt and generally immoral. Yes the west is shit in so many ways and capitalism is completely unsustainable, but that doesn't mean I need to support Chinese "socialism" just because it's not western capitalism. And I don't think a random post from a user that's posting blatant propaganda is going to completely recontexualise everything I know about China and make all their bullshit suddenly ok. So why waste my team reading it? And to give a more extreme scenario, if you encountered a Nazi who wrote a massive comment about how Nazi Germany was actually great and democratic and treated people well, would you bother to read it? Are you obliged to learn about it?
