(1,301 posts)i do understand, or at least i think i do, i was furious when i was indirectly accused of racism for daring to question obama's lies.
i do not wish to post links for a reason, i think i explained that?
but i will explain, when you have the mainstream press in the US as mouthpieces for the 1% and the authorities in this country, when the NYT can sit on a story of bush and the telecoms warrantless wiretapping of americans for 1 year, and across a election cycle, when you had almost the whole US press cheerlead without question the invasion of iraq based on a pack of lies it is then racist for people to turn around and equate the chinese press with the chinese government, its a double standard, its jingoism.
and to then use this as proof that edward snowden is a spy for china is, to me at least, quite disgusting.
do you see what i mean now?
i do not wish to get into a long discussion with you again when you are one of the people i could never have a issue with, can you understand that? even if i might disagree with some points you have, they are you points, you have a right to them, you are polite about it. i have no argument with you.
