          You deliberately misled people by telling a partial truth and your response to being called out is “lol you’re from the instance I’m posting on”?

          You come here and deliberately lie to do propaganda and at the same time you’re backslapping about how you’re fishing for a ban to parade around. You should get banned. You’re a bad actor.

            I’m not OP genius.

            And oh no, not a ban from the troll farm of Lemmy. Whatever will I do?

                  Is this the “rational thinking and supportive behavior to convince people on your ideas” that you said I should adopt to avoid “push[ing] people away and remind them of how they don’t want anything to do with the “left””?

      The correct response to being corrected on media illiteracy is “thank you”.

        Here is another. Your personal views of media literacy are similar to that of a MAGA.

          Why would I need another? Your selective reading of the original you posted is what was pointed out.

          Re: MAGA, lazy sinophobia and only seeing the red meat for it is more of their thing. Not, “here is the rest of the context you ommitted”. If that is your metric for badnesd, you are guiltu of it.

              Please do your best to reply to what I say rather than changing the subject.

                I’m returning to the main topic. Do you or don’t you.

                  You’re just bailing on the rabbit hole you chose to go down because you ran out of retorts. My replies to “the main topic” are already there and cover adding additional context and calling out poor behavior or problematic tendencies. So far you have not directly addressed any of those things. Are you sure that’s what you want to discuss?

                    Okay? So let’s leave the rabbit hole you dug and just go back to the actual topic.

                    I guess you’re too afraid to answer it, so you divert the conversation into your comfort zone.

          I only stated the truth.

          For some reason, you don’t like that.

              They were arrested for mass distribution, not for writing. Keep in mind this law was written before the internet, back then distributing 5000 copies was a fairly large operation. I don’t think the writers of the law foresaw a future where distributing 5000 copies of a work could be done instantly and in many cases for free (although the punishment is more severe based on income)

              I’m only clarifying the facts. My personal opinions on the matter are quite different.

                Do you think people should be arrested for writing an erotic fiction book?

                  No, but I don’t think posting misleading headlines in an English-speaking forum is the way to change that.

                    It’s not misleading. It’s just focusing on one aspect of a much larger problem. The article never said “only gay fiction.”

                    You seem to exist on both sides of this topic. It must be exhausting to be queer, and pro-china, since you’re definitely not welcome there.
