The Nazis made sure their factory workers got paid enough to vacation on the French Riviera. China builds giant nets to catch them if they attempt to commit suicide to escape.

Those are safety nets. Meanwhile America has to put up nets next to every bridge to stop all the homeless from escaping from their neoliberal hell.

You don’t put safety nets outside your building unless you expect people to be jumping from the roofs for some reason. And I can tell you right now that people have been jumping from bridges since people made bridges, so don’t try to turn that into some argument for why a “Based China” is so much better than the West.

I would like to thank @LurkNoMore for finding this piece of horrid PRC propaganda, and I would like to state that this just makes the ROC in Exile sound even more based.

Practically speaking European construction aid, the introduction of modern(ish) medicine/agriculture techniques and institution building has raised the standard of living of millions of Africans and vastly increased their population, colonial warfare and measures like Apartheid were a small price to pay for that.
IMO the issue is how will this develop? The amount of power China has over them from being owed this much is almost unlimited if they play their cards right. I don't know if shit like Leopold's Congo can happen in the age of smartphones, but I wouldn't put it past the CCP to try. And even further along, what happens if/when the Chinks lose interest? The Europeans pulled out hastily when imperialism stopped being fashionable and the results ranged from endemic corruption and anomie to literal race wars .
Edit: How come this thread was completely inactive for a month until the post just before mine? Did the CCP pull the plug on the wumaos or something?

Imagine where SA would be if Mandela had fallen down some stairs in prison. Imagine Rhodesia lasting into the modern day. Hell, consider what could've happened if Angola wasn't turned into a Cuban puppet state. Honestly, the colonial governments just keep looking better and better.

Hahaha they use an example of a non-contiguous territory that culturally and ethnically shares little with the mainland, and was treated as absolute garbage by them (even later on well into the cold war), in this scenario even the confederates of all people being the ones in charge of Puerto Rico would be a big improvement if it meant independence. Not to mention equating the normal American government as the PRC in this example is pretty fitting considering the commies only won with the support of Uncle Sam, who betrayed the KMT by forcing them to stop fighting when they were about to win. This analogy is perfect for all the wrong reasons.

Also, no analogy can save their stupid argument of "imagine if one side of a war was never completely defeated, and for some reason didn't want to drop everything and surrender when they had a stable position with natural barriers that they could hold for the forseeable future? They should just let the enemy win and have access to more civilians to kill!"
You just KNOW they'd be shilling for Taiwan in an alternate timeline where the nearly-defeated commies retreated there, this isn't about a "split up territory" (not that it would matter since Taiwan has enough of an independent cultural identity throughout history that it's a totally different situation than dividing a country in half), it's about "commies good KMT bad" and they throw around whatever convenient arguments just happen to be lying around that seem to support the conclusion "commies good KMT bad" regardless of if they agree with the specific argument or not.

I haven't seen an actual wumao outside of the great firewall in forever, so maybe. They have western tankies to do their jobs for them now.

The Chinese have been really hard on social media lately. In addition to the economy plummeting and fuel running out they had their national day this month and they don't want people to see anything out of Taiwan.

I honestly have no idea. I just know that I have turned this thread into all PRC shills on social media, paid propagandists and tankie alike.

But, uh, the US didn’t annex PR until the Spanish-American War.

You know what's funny about this is that a lot of Confederates actually did make a settlement in exile in Brazil. They're called the Confederados and their home city Americana, in Sao Paulo, is beautiful and filled with the same Neoclassical architecture that Americans of the era loved. Also despite being in Brazil the city and local region are 85% White.

I think some Confederates got to Mexico as well.
Also I've read many of the Confederados have intermarried with the locals, so they are 'white' if you go by 1-drop rule.

It's almost like the civil war wasn't a good vs evil "ethics" war and was more about a dispute of powers. Once the union got what they wanted nothing more needed to happen.

Remember that nobody really gave a shit about Brazil still having legal slavery for 20 years after the Civil War, nor was the Grand Army of the Republic particularly concerned about emancipating slaves of loyalists until after the war. I hate to sound like some stupid Neo-Confederate, but the Civil War was fundamentally about the expanding power of the Federal Government and opposition to their encroachments on the individual states' rights to self-governance, even if one of the big concerns among the CSA leadership was the attempts to outlaw slavery. And, of course, the CSA is vindicated in any assertions that abolition would lead to a slippery slope of federal tyranny, considering what the 20th century entailed.
