Not even close to the same level as China. What’s up with whitewashing China on all online platforms these days? You, on hacker news, should know better.

- virgil_disgr4ce 1mo agoYeah I'm wondering the same thing. It's bizarre and unsettling and seems off-brand for HN.
- Sabinus 1mo agoThe left is having it's Tea Party/MAGA movement, it's only going to get worse for the foreseeable future.
- bothers 1mo ago> Not even close to the same level as China. Have you been paying attention? At all? The US is really trying to cut off its own legs and branding it as removing unnecessary weight. Give it time, we'll get there.
- forestrywat 1mo agoThere are people being arrested for being in Signal chats where non violent protests are being discussed. People being arrested for carrying water bottles. ICE is shooting people who are not even in the way, just making noise across the street. Rubio called the DSA a terrorist organization. And second, I don't think I said "at the same level as China". It can be the case that both countries are authoritarian and punishing dissidents. And still be the case that China is worse.
