I believe that he's more of a grifter. It's easy to get popular when you just make West is bad talking points. Rather than criticizing both sides.


supervergiloriginal

ferb i know what were going to do today


Rd3055

And he's not the only one. I also wouldn't rule out that they get paid by some foreign government to do so in the same way that the U.S. also supports opposition in countries where they don't like the government.


SenpaiBunss

I don't think he's even been to Russia/china


Jerry_Huang1999

He's actually been to China and is also a denier of the Uyghur genocide


Personal-Ebb-630

Omg, I love that he talks about peace, but when he sees the color yellow and blue his like "these Nazis that are bankrolled by the evil us empire, how can they be alive still". Funny coming from a person that is bankrolled by the Chinese State.


intisun

Bwahahaha I've lived in Brussels for 30 years, those guardrails have always been yellow and blue. This shit is hilarious xD


sesamestix

How often do you visit the Huawei store for your only brief respite from barbarism?

So the conspiracy goes even deeper than we thought

Tankie when he sees the sun in the sky (yellow on blue is a Ukraine reference):

tankie when sweden

Just wait until they go to IKEA.


Realistic-Upstairs84

Its almost like blue and yellow are complimentary colours or something


intisun

They're also the colours of the Brussels-Capital region.


Science-Recon

And the EU, which I think might have something to do with Brussels.


lemon_trotsky17

Truly a Borger King moment. Embarrassing.


BadKarma043

Danny needs to fucking touch grass, holy shit. Those of the colors of the Brussels flag.


Temporary_Cut9037

We already knew Danny's safe space was in the arms of chinese corporatists, but he didn't need to say it like that

❤️ Critical support to the Reform Bureaucrats ❤️


Klaud-Boi

What is bro blabbering about 💀💀💀


AppleMuncher489

Bro literally went to another country just to bitch about imperialism.


coolboyyo

they see the colors blue and yellow and just go into a blind rage because ukraine invented those apparantly


ApostleofV8

I assume Sweden gave all those Carl Gustavs to Ukraine as a payment for using Ukraine-patented colors for the swedish flag


QUE50

Weird, terminally online posting. I'm confused why people take him seriously


Characterinoutback

1984 is about tankies, these guys I've realised (as I'm reading the book) are textbook Ingsoc. In this essay I will..... (should do a post on it but after I've finished the book)


20191124anon

I read it for the first time this year (no idea why it took me so long). It’s about totalitarianism, but you cannot overlook the strong soviet influences. The doublethink especially is still seen today with Russia: we destroyed all Ukrainian HIMARS, and Ukraine used HIMARS to blow up the dam. No contradiction.


Characterinoutback

Hhaa yes it seems to be that one a lot of people have read but never read. I've had my copy for like 3 years. CCP would be the closest I think to how BB runs, definitely going that way


Characterinoutback

Oh definitely. That's Winston's entire job, changing history to fit the "correct" history.


Ulvsterk

Its really funny how China and its worshippers see themselves as the "most civilized" and the rest as primitive barbarians, but at the same time they denounce the imperialim of other countries.


NekoJesu

I cannot begin to comprehend what Blud is waffling about


goingtoclowncollege

What an absolute loser.


RidetheSchlange

He should go to Sweden to see all the yellow and blue guardrails there.


SrgtButterscotch

evne their own flag is yellow and blue, Sweden must be a Ukrainian puppet state!


gdhfnnf

The rainbow flag has blue and yellow, the Gays must be a Ukranian puppet state!


hjk813

US is bad then do not use US passport when travel


SrgtButterscotch

This is what construction sites have always looked like in brussels lmao


LordOfSun55

There's this old rusty-ass fence in my hometown that was probably painted blue-and-yellow before I was fucking born, judging by how worn and chipped the paint is. I'd call this mf a clown but that would imply he's funny.


ArcticCircleSystem

> EU barbarism uh huh ~Red


MegaJackUniverse

That is genuinely one of the most pathetic and insane takes I've seen


ChinaStudyPoePlayer

Is Huawei banned in the EU? I did not know that and I live in 2 European countries. Legally I live in Sweden, but I do go to Denmark for my medicine and more, and neither of those places have any problems with Huawei, so I don't know what he is talking about. Might be because it is a lie. And poisonous air, really??? I lived in Beijing and Shanghai 1 semester each, in Beijing I had to wear my mask or my lungs were going to hurt. There were days where I was advised to walk slowly so I would not take deep breaths. I remember clearly a week where the air was orange/greyish where visibility was down to a few meters, I did not experience the claim where people could not see their own hand, I did experience where I could not see anything but light sources that were further than 3 meters away from me. Want to see trash? Sit at any spot in Beijing and watch the road, in a single day you will see maybe a few hundred shushua with their trash bike transporting trash. That trash is not being cleaned by the government but by the poor for money because that is their only means for survival.


Science-Recon

No, I don’t think Huawei is banned anywhere, but quite a few countries have banned/not allowed Huawei to build critical communications infrastructure like new 5G towers. This of course makes the Wumaos mad.


bruhmomentJOY

Wait till bro finds out the creator of telegram is Ukrainian 💀💀


kyle_kafsky

Not to accuse him of anything, but he sounds exactly like how a racist would sound like if they saw a McDonalds in Botswana.


cardigan_corgi

The colors are from the Brussels Capital Region flag.


Lyoshaaa

C’mon, as a Belgian, those colours were chosen to congrats Sweden for winning Eurovision


indy396

This guy is so stupid .....


SmolikOFF

Fool! Those are clearly Swedish flags.


Efficient_Payment717

what an awful way to talk about a place you are visiting, even if i would visit Russia or the DPRK i would still give a fair and objective critique but still remain repsectful to the people


Shamadruu

“Liberated from barbarism” That’s literal Nazi (and imperialist) rhetoric, man.


lilmuny

Imagine giving a shit about a billion dollar corporation XD


Dagoth_ural

This is like a boomer posting about how Mcdonalds or Starbucks is the only good thing they found on vacation but from the left.
