American Internet MLs when someone defends colonization by criticizing the prior systems of the colonized people: "Let colonized people dedcide their own fate! >:( "

American Internet MLs when someone criticizes China’s colonization of Tibet: “[5000 characters criticizing prior systems in Tibet]”

I just want some consistency. Why is it liberation when China does it to Tibet but colonization when America does it to Afghanistan/South America/everywhere else? Fuck em both bro

Also have you ever noticed that criticisms of Tibet’s former systems always rely on the secondary source of The Timely Rain, an account written by foreign travelers in Tibet? (Or, as MLs might call someone who travels to Asia to do this today, written by “colonizers”?) Why is that perspective okay with you, enough to justify China’s actions?

So the two solutions I’m seeing are either the Lemmy version of a “multireddit”, or another bot that reposts things across instances lol

Yeah but that can be determined just by account age and number of posts, not by the public reception of those posts.

Nah, it’s been enabled, it’s literally just that instance that wont show anything without an account on their instance.

Unless you mean the setting for my *.world account can be on everywhere else but OFF on the *nsfw instance alone??

No some communities need a new login. lemmy NSFW has no content without it. th there’s the issue of having a slow instance like world vs another instance

Yikes. Asking all visitors to enter ID? They just don’t want anyone on those sites. You could just as well use a device-based age verification system and cut out a major point of access. Looking like Arkansas and Mississippi are following the South Korean model.
