I still remember at first the likes of Google and big tech companies refused to take down content unless it was illegal, copyright, or a "true threat" to someone life etc .. then it went from that to censoring "hate speech" , while not even clearly defining what is hate speech, and then it went from that to anything that went against "community guidelines" and basically any speech not towing the hegemon's official narrative gets branded as "conspiracy theory" thus against "community guidelines"...
The most blatant is now only allowing one side to even report or speak at all .. see reddit new policy that only allows Israel side of the videos, stories to get exposure but videos and news from the other side get blackholed as a policy...

I doubt that's what he meant; I think that's his escape but if that's what he meant then he didn't say it in English. To legislatively outlaw antisemitism or Nazism is common sense; America is founded on a legislative assurance of non-racism. It's not even worth saying. But how the people feel cannot be regulated by law.
And this guy keeps shifting the goalpost pretending to say things he didn't say to escape being obviously wrong.
Yeah, it's no secret there is no encouragement of free thought in the West and there's no freedom either. It's all made up bullshit for their citizens to feel a moral high ground. In Germany, you can go to jail for painting a mural against Zelensky or wearing a T-shirt with Z on it. In the US, it's a cancel culture war for your political beliefs to scare people into political assimilation. Americans literally believe that free thought means you politically agree with the US or you're a foreign government shill/bot. If the US is going on a tech/trade war against China and a Chinese netizen calls out the US for doing so in fear of China's rise, then they think the CCP paid him to say it or that they'll shoot his family if he doesn't because deep down, he has to be anti-China and pro-America. That's their understanding of free thought and that's how smart they are.

The ROC was one of the only countries to accept Jewish refugees fleeing the Germans in the lead up to WW2. The overwhelming majority of Jews remember and are deeply grateful for this, even if you yourself have forgotten this part of your own country's history.
Your post reads like a bunch of logical leaps and extraordinarily cherrypicked examples to justify a pre-existing prejudice. Yes China is not at the top of the minds of a diaspora that originally came from the levant and has had nearly all of its history confined to the western hemisphere. Why should it be? Likewise Jews do not take Chinese apathy towards them as a fault, since China historically had nothing to do with them aside from the above example. They actually like being ignored since being the center of attention is a bad omen for them.
Yes the overall number of Chinese killed by the IJA is higher than Jews killed by the Germans. Why is this relevant? I understand the west in general downplays the Chinese experience of WW2 but this is done mainly by neglecting the subject of the Pacific theater and only showing the American perspective of fighting the Japanese when it is discussed, not by appealing to Holocaust casualty figures. You are making this about Jews when it just isn't.
And your anecdotes are void. There are 20 million Jews and 1.4 billion Chinese. In the ensemble of all interactions between them there are bound to be good and bad ones, what matters is the statistical trend and that emerges, and that is one of general mutual indifference aside from the very much positive memory of Chinese generosity in Shanghai.
I just didn't know about your zealotry towards English, which interprets everything literally and methodically spends thousands of words trying to contradict others ignoring figures of speech and informal language.
But I believe that normal people understood what I said, so there is no need for so much discussion.

Without solid documentation, along with elaborating on the context (how many, what happened to non collaborators?) and what you mean by talks (a handful of people? An organization? How large?) this is just stoking ethnic hatred with ill defined claims
Yeah I just want ask is this true. If yes then it would possibly explain why both ROC and PRC avoid this topic. (Btw this does not justify anti semitism) (I looked up the dolphin plan)

Oh really, we're not going be using standard English definitions now? Then is this another one of your figures of speech? In Quim "English", is this you apologizing for foolishly attempting to defend an indefensible statement then pretending it meant something else?
You believe wrong again. In our conversation, this post garnered the highest support rating.

You guys remember that Assad came to China right before the Hangzhou Asian games. China really went all out on the propaganda to show strong bonds with Assad, and Assad did the same. Assad also left Beijing with a huge smile, I'm thinking it's more than just a few economic cooperation projects ;)
