  • Indigenous people were enslaved in equal or greater numbers to Africans in the U.S. These people don’t know what they are talking about. The difference between why a colonial becomes settler or not is if you settle it. Europeans didn’t want to live in the “savage” lands, they wanted to send just enough grunts to get the resources back to Europe. The US happened because those grunts proliferated and formed such a large society that they decided to break off and reap the benefits of the colony without paying taxes to the colonial founder. Israel happened because the Europeans wanted to get out of the region they were extracting from but needed someone to take over for their grunts, and there was a perfect group willing to do that in exchange for settling the land.




  • I don’t think that is what is happening at all.

    In nearly every case it could be seen as self defense. They aren’t killing people as a means to benefit society, they are killing people in self defense, perhaps revenge. One was their landlord who had a gun and was threatening them. He was killed by a new Zizian in 2025 before being able to testify against the trans women who were being charged with stabbing him on the day he threatened them with a gun and killed one of their friends in 2022. The first deaths were end of 2022, the parents of one of the Zizians, and there is no clear info there about motive, but a trans kid killing her parents isn’t a random act of violence for the sake of killing people. It could have been an act of revenge on being abused as a child, which she blogged a lot about being the case, it could have been in self defense because they were going to call the police or some other oppressive authority on her. I’m not justifying the killing, just saying it isn’t some random death cult just killing people for the sake of human sacrifice or something. The last person to get killed was a border patrol agent in Jan 2025 who stopped two Zizians, one of which was a German national on an expired visa, and they rightfully freak out and wrongfully open fire.

    Four people killed in three years, each by different people. One was a landlord who killed one of the Zizian’s friends with a gun and shot another, another was a cop who was about to lock up one of the Zizians on an expired visa and deport them, and the other two were the allegedly abusive parents of one of the Zizians.

    A bunch of trans women with mental health issues, knowing they won’t be given any justice by a transphobic system, choosing to do something irrational to someone they know out of self defense or revenge. If a gang member kills another gang member for snitching, is that a death cult? If a cop approaches a gang member and catches them doing something illegal and gets killed, is that a death cult?

    It seems really reductive to call this a death cult. The people who were killed didn’t die because the Zizian ideology says they must kill people, they died because they were seen as threatening the lives of the people who killed them, and those people were armed and mentally unwell. I think it is dangerous for average trans people when others keep parroting the reactionary media narrative about scary trans death cult. It’s not a death cult, it’s a vegan anarchist group afraid of AI destroying humanity that attracts mentally unwell outcasts who end up arming themselves because they live in a nation that will absolutely abuse and kill them without due process for being trans.












  • To your first point, it is the sheer volume of it that makes it easy to assume there are many cases that haven’t (yet) been caught. China is producing such an absurd amount of patents, and there are clearly people who are willing to try and defraud the government in China enough that it’s been a real problem. There is also a huge problem with providing enough jobs for qualified scientists in China, it is not hard to imagine that there will be people doing whatever it takes to provide for their family if the alternative is not having any job at all. I wasn’t even saying China was trying to hide anything, although we know that they do that. The Thai building collapse I mentioned in another comment was pretty quickly scrubbed from Chinese social media, for example. In the case of fraud, I would imagine that China would prefer to be open about that data domestically because it shows they are diligent to the masses and potentially scares other people from trying. I haven’t had the time to look for it myself yet. Either way, I wasn’t making a point that there are many cases that haven’t been caught, I was saying that in context to being told the very notion is a conspiracy theory with no evidence, that there are some that have been caught that we can see makes it real, and surely there are more that haven’t been caught.

    I’m just posting on forum, not writing to convince an audience of anything, so I feel fine making speculative statements without statistical evidence. I get if you hold yourself to a different standard, but I don’t take any of this seriously enough to think about it like that. I agree that China is probably setting the global standard on fraud prevention and prosecution, and that the US does something like the opposite.


  • Yeah, and honestly the construction issues seem to happen more in other countries. There’s that big scandal right now with the building that collapsed in the Thai earthquakes, the only building in the area to collapse and the most recently built, and which the company touted their earthquake resistant design.

    but yes, the crackers being confused about planning things in advanced that will affect millions of people’s lives was a good one. It’s amazing how many waves of anti-China memes that have happened over the years, and to look back now on how China’s development has just changed everything.


  • I hear you, I had someone tell me 10 years ago that my position in favor of China’s counter terrorism measures in Xinjiang had the same vibes as the US using terrorism as a way to justify oppressing people in Afghanistan. China says they are terrorists, and now they are being oppressed by China in response, are you a denier of genocide? We see how that turned out, their vibes based analysis was very emotionally driven but not taking into account the very real things that exist in the material plane. I think a lot of vibes based analysis struggles to differentiate the content of things versus their forms.

    Individual humans living within a capitalist society have material reasons to lie, and it may even be easier to get away with in a nation like China where they want to give money to people to do cool shit. I don’t know if it is easier, but it isn’t hard to imagine, based on the information available. China has had a long history of corruption, especially in the 80’s and 90’s, and Xi’s political momentum lied heavily in his anti-corruption commitments. These things don’t just go away overnight, and for a nation that is investing billions back into scientific research and development at an unprecedented scale, an opportunity arises for those who seek to get a piece of that action without being able to promise the results that funding warrants. The Chinese government has put out statements about patent fraud. People have been tried in court for these things, an example of which I linked in a different comment. I get that, at first glance, you see a comment online by a stranger and want to uplift the possibility that narratives critical of China could be based in Sinophobic rhetoric. My comment wasn’t that, just relevant anecdote I heard from Chinese people in China about a real thing that is going on that Chinese people are talking about, in China. To me, an interesting peek into the incredibly competitive, endlessly expanding science machine that is developing in China which, if I’m being honest, is one of the few things I have hope for if our species is to survive. stalin-approval

    According to a news report by 知识产权界, on December 3, 2020, the People’s Court of Shehong City, Sichuan heard the corruption and bribery case of defendant Guo, and the corruption case of defendants Chen, Wu, and Wu . The court of first instance sentenced Guo to 6 years and 8 months imprisonment, fined Guo 400,000 yuan, and ordered him to refund the economic losses caused by his corruption. Guo had fraudulently filed and obtained 231 utility model patents and then applied for awards of 3,000 RMB (~$459 USD) each from Shehong County Government’s intellectual property award funds.

    As I said in a different comment, fraudulent patents are taking government grants that could be going to teams working on quality work. Here are the conspiracy theorists of the people’s court of shehong city, sichuan confirming such a thing. This popped up from a cursory search on Google in English, but it is widely talked about in Chinese on Chinese platforms, it is a real thing that is happening
