    A random person dies by ordinary reasons - without sources - but he was Chinese, so therefore we just write it anyway…

    Nonsense ‘article’…

      Lmfao, the fake communist would rather ignore the health risks of over work to blindly support a fake communist country. Tell me you’re Wumao without telling me you’re Wumao. 🤣🤡

        When I see on Lemmy a post about immigrants in Spain (my homeland) dying in summer due to heatstroke being overworked at 39°C, I’ll believe you. Until then, shut up, propagandist

              I didn’t. I’m say the news exists… but Lemmy doesn’t have it. Which is a problem with Lemmy.

              The user who initially commented suggested that the entire act of writing an article about this topic was only because it was about China. Which is just the favoring China, for… whatever reason.

              But, to your complaint, I agree there are a lot of countries that don’t get enough coverage on Lemmy. It’s usually US and China, because Lemmy has a large population of fake communists who hate the US, and have never been to China.

              I would enjoy knowing more about what is going on in the world outside of the loud countries.

                This post wasn’t posted by “fake commies”, it was posted precisely by libs. It’s atrocity propaganda of working conditions in China to make people dislike the country, and I posted my comment because it’s patent that you don’t care about the living conditions of the working class as much as you care about doing dunks on China because you dislike its form of socialism

                  It was posted because it was written. The person complaining about the article was a fake communist.

                  You’re, suspiciously, trying to twist words to your own desire. But I’m sorry, you’re just wrong.

                  I’m not the one complaining about articles pointing out poor living conditions. They did.

                  Then you, suspiciously, pop up trying to gaslight me into coming off as the bad guy? WOW. Try harder.

                  Maybe you should care about the living conditions of the working class in China for once in your life.

                  China isn’t socialism. Lmfao, Wumao.

                    All propaganda is written at some point. It being written doesnt make it less atrocity propaganda.

                    You seem very worried about “fake communists”, what’s an example of real world socialism to you?

        Wumao refers to posters who post unrelated content to disengage conversations around subjects that are critical of China. The term also referred to a phenomenon on chinese social media platforms, and alleged that the community party was paying people to make the posts. The majority of people engaging in that pattern of content are members of the communist party, party officials in any capacity.

            Is Lemmy a chinese social media platform? :o

            Also, you’re using the term to describe someone who is not engaging in the behavior the term is meant to describe.

                I genuinely did not know that, I had not checked what instance they were from.

                You’re essentially saying theyre a paid disinformation disseminator? But thats not what wumao means. It also doesnt describe a phenomenon in western online spaces, but rather one on China’s social media networks. I’m not making a statement of agreement or disagreement with the idea that theyre a paid bad actor. I am calling out your usage of the term wumao.

                  You know what I’m saying, you’re purposefully pretending to be ignorant because you support them. Or, they are your alt. Few people here are confused what I mean, even if they disagree with me.

                    If you read the comment I just sent, I point out that I think I know what you mean but that the word you are using is not the correct word for that and in fact refers to something entirely different.

                    Meaning can be conveyed its just in this case you’re actually diluting a term used specifically to talk about an obfuscation tactic used by the Chinese government to interfere with political discourse on their social media platforms.
