@yogthos ?

@yogthos I don't get the meaning of the meme... Or the meaming, if you will ^_^

@yogthos That's not what those photos prove, that's what those photos were selected to suggest. With a different choice of photos from those two very same people you could have suggested anything else, don't you think?

@yogthos Which one of those two links seems more interesting to you?

@yogthos OK, I'd go with the one that is not on YouTube. It compares Australia and China, I guess it's not closely related to HRC but it's interesting nontheless https://www.trotskyistplatform.com/workplace-safety-now-better-in-china-than-in-australia/ what do we know about how data from the two countries has been collected?

@yogthos Look, the source cited in that article to show that the Chinese government is doing good comes from the Chinese government itself http://www.stats.gov.cn/english/PressRelease/201602/t20160229_1324019.html with this kind of circular logic we could praise anyone we want

@yogthos @popolon What you're saying is not entirely true, as you mentioned before, some European countries incorporated some socialist policies. Also, if the PRC is no longer communist, and you're communist, why this passion for the current gov of the PRC?

@yogthos Well, we can read alternative sources. Here's one: https://lausan.hk/

@yogthos In fact that website is from the HKSAR, a region with more freedom than the rest of the PRC because of the Sino-British Joint Declaration

@yogthos Well, no, it's not true that the HKSAR is now entirely under the laws of the rest of the country. The new national security law introduces new, severe restrictions to freedom of speech, but the HKSAR in theory is still a different system within the same country, so it makes sense Lausan may still find there more freedom than in other parts of the PRC. This is how the collective itself talks about the national security law: https://lausan.hk/2020/hong-kongs-new-era-of-terror/

@popolon @yogthos Mais alors, qu'est-ce que tu crois, que avoir moins de liberté maintenant va resoudre quelque chose? And so what, do you think that having less freedom now would solve anything?

@yogthos @popolon For everybody to disagree with their government and to participate to the election of the next one, for example

@yogthos @popolon Well, I already told you, freedom house, reporters without borders, but let's pick another one https://www.eiu.com/n/campaigns/democracy-index-2020/
