Seems like they don’t care about tiktok at all Idk if I’d call that support.

China has more trade ties to the US than Israel does.

I see no calls to stop investing in Chinese companies, or buying Chinese products because of the Genocide happening within their borders.

Also, I can’t speak for him here but none of my tax dollars go to the Chinese government

"With data provided by the Congressional Research Service, Senator Ernst and Open the Books determined more than $490 million from U.S. grants and contracts were paid to organizations in China since 2017 and another $870 million were paid to entities in Russia."

Seems America just loves supporting Genocidal regimes with tax money, and Americans love pretending it doesn't end up there.

So if hes from a country aiding Isreal like me he has an obligation to say something about it or else be complicit is his labor buying weapons for genocide. Its the same reason US protestors focused on Biden instead of Netenyahu when this stated. We don’t get to vote for or against Bibi, but Biden, we do.

It is morally okay to support, or completely ignore, countries like China according to you and the person I originally responded to.

Can you elaborate on why that is without making false claims about tax dollars?

Social media is bad for your brain. There’s plenty of communities on lemmy

If social media is bad for your brain why is lemmy, a social media site, not?

What is the difference between Israel and China to make it morally right for you to support one genocidal regime and not the other?

Can you elaborate?

I just did.

None of this is my opinion, it’s just how the world works LOL

This may be of some use to you.

Which Government?

I already answered this one as well.

The gov typically need some sort of warrant, and they need approval from the country they’re requesting it from.

United States of America? Canada? North Korea? China? Australia? Saudi Arabia? South Africa? Brazil?

The point is the app was designed for secure communication, specifically from corrupt governments, which is why it is problematic to allow access to user data as long as the individual is breaking a law in that country.

Or to use the example from the top:

So who gets to pick what’s a lawful request and criminal activity? It’s criminal in some states to seek an abortion or help with an abortion, so would they hand out the IPs of those “criminals”? Because depending on who you ask some will tell you they’re basically murderers. And that’s just one example.

Not necessarily, but kinda. The gov typically need some sort of warrant and they need approval from the country they’re requesting it from.

Which Government?

Pardon my ignorance as this is my first time using the internet, but I am pretty sure that every Government on the planet does not use a universal set of laws or procedures for enforcement.

The country in which the perpetrator lives or the crime was committed. First time using the internet?

In your opinion, all companies must disclose the personal information of customers whenever a Government says "This person broke the law"?

The…law?

In which country?

The prohibition of drugs is harmful.

When did I say it wasn't?

Do try not to quote me out of context this time.

Your position is asinine and wrong, which is the point of this entire thread.

What is my position?

edit oh like I said, you ignored the parts of the last comment which would humiliate you. you can try to ignore them to keep that thought away, but even when you delete the comments, the idiocy will remain. your need to up your rhetorical game.

Posted a comment and edited within 2 minutes because you forgot to attempt an insult, yet I am the one who is "provoked" and "angry".

Stay mad homie.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I stand by everything I have said. Made clear by the lack of editing done.

Maybe stop quoting me out of context. You may understand why you are wrong.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (5 children)

You keep moving your goalposts.

The goal post was to answer the questions posed. You still haven't and the posts haven't moved.

It’s so easy to provoke you. All I need to do is to quote you back to yourself and you’ll get red in the face.

I think you may have reached a point beyond projection, in a realm known as total delusion. The only one provoked here is obviously you. Easily verified by you putting everything "important" in bold(pretentious much?), attacking anyone who responds to you, all while pretending you are some enlightened individual who just has to be listened to for the good of man kind.

Sorry to burst your bubble but you aren't special, intelligent, or worth listening to. Which is why I continue to ignore what you are saying. Which I explicitly told you I was going to do.

I do have to give you some credit though. The fact you have kept this going for almost a week is rather impressive. Sad, but impressive.

I cannot wait for the next mess of a comment you decide to post!

Go ahead and stand by your words anytime you are ready. Feel free to copy paste my questions, and put the relevant rant that "answers" any one of them below the quoted question. If you can answer all four with what you have previously written in your comments I will go back and answer every single sentence you ended with a "?".

Otherwise, I will just keep doing what I am doing. Which is showing this thread to my spouse, and anyone who finds chronically online nut jobs humorous, and laughing at you until we all get bored and move on with life.

On that note, there is a lot of hope that you will continue responding as we are drinking now and having a great time. If you do not mind continuing with whatever it is you are doing that would be greatly appreciated by approximately 5 people.

Cheers!

A bit ashamed you were wrong? It’s okay. It’s the internet. It’s full of people like you saying dumb shit they can’t back up and get flustered about. There’s nothing to be ashamed of.

I know it is hard, because I cannot find it in me to listen to you, but you should at least listen to yourself. ;)
