That matters too.

Sir, this is GameFAQs.

Really horrible that some people are denying it

some super woke celebrities and corporations and even CEmen strangely seem to never say anything at all about it as if its not happening or not in the news.

Remember this? People raised the alarm about how the NBA was being the CCPs bitch back in 2019. Now we see what ended up happening w/ Hong Kong.

this really should raise some eyebrows tbh. Not just the NBA, but Blizzard too at around the same time.

Exactly. Propaganda purposes.

If the American government actually cared about genocide, it would stop enabling Saudi Arabia's genocide in Yemen

Ah okay, so you guys are CCP shills basically?

How many fucking topics are you gonna make about this

This is obvious bait dude

---

As many topics as I want. Like I said, feel free to add me to your ignore list if you do not agree or wish to not see them.

But also what they dont say.

That matters too.

Well, unless you're willing to pick up a rifle and fight for their freedom, I don't really see the point in constantly virtue signaling that you're "against it". I mean, bitching about it non stop on a dying video game social forum probably won't help them out very much, and just reeks of priveledged white people sitting around saying how awful it is and anyone who isn't outraged is trash to feel better about themselves.
Idk much about the situation beyond there's fuck all any of us can do about it, so I just don't see the point of spinning our wheels in the mud and fighting about it.

The point is that our corporations and institutions should not be CCP bitches.

and talking about it everywhere and anywhere is low effort and necessary

You can talk about it until your jaw falls off, and the only difference you will have made is now you eat your meals through a straw. Point stands, you constantly bitching about it and looking down your nose at thise of us who aren't outraged has exactly as much effect on the situation as complete ambivalence.

lol wait who is your main account? I don't remember a PoundGarden ever being on CE in the past.

When enough people are outraged, things start to happen, like companies that continue to deal with China getting too much boycotts to stay afloat.

One person can't make a change, but one person can grow into more people, and many people can make a change.

Of course, you know that, you just don't want to see China held responsible.

No, obviously not, but if we really want to stop genocide, we should get to work on the one we have a much greater ability to stop.
