The far-right populist Alternative for Germany party rejects a values-based foreign policy, just as much as it rejects NATO and the US. That approach has attracted the attention of Beijing.
Two Jews meet on the U-Bahn in 1935. One is reading a Nazi newspaper. His friend asks him “how can you read those outrageous lies about us?!” He replies “If I read a real newspaper, its persecution this and deportation that. But in this paper? We own all the banks, the movies, the government!”
Classic but red flag (lol) conspiracy theory vibes in this context. Jewish people owning China or vice versa? Either way fits more in line with qanonists
God could the point go over your head harder. That user wasn’t engaging in a conspiracy theory that Jews on all the banks movies and government, they were comparing your apparent belief that the Chinese government controls the American government to those antisemitic conspiracy theories.
Also zero points in an argument with a bunch of people who can’t downvote
I think that in 30 years you’ll be considered the anti-Semite of this age, honestly. Sartre once famously claimed something like “if the Nazi didn’t have the jew, they would have created him.”
Sartre, for all his faults, understood that fascism always needed the external and periphery, whether defined geographically or ethnically, in order to sustain itself through expropriation. Who this was doesn’t matter as much as that this group is defined as having more than it deserves for bad reasons and is therefore justifiable as a victim of violent expropriation. The values represented have become more progressive™ in that you believe China owns American representatives in order to mistreat Muslims or something. But materially it’s identical to “Judeo-Bolshevik” antisemitism
Here’s a bite-sized analysis from a guy who’s pretty good at this:
Though, in fairness, red man is actively hostile to LGBT people, migrants, and women whereas blue man is content to let LGBT people, migrants, and women suffer via apathetic neglect instead.
Weird how democracy didn’t stop the genocide of the Native Americans, or the Aboriginal People of Australia, or the First Nations. I guess “true democracy” has just never been tried.
Democracy is when you vote between red man and blue man, both of whom have the same policies.
Let’s topple all fake democracies. China’s red-blue man owns US’s red and blue men anyway.

Whooooosh lol 😉
Would someone actually create a “your apparent belief” in their mind from that
You know what, it’s not even apparent, you explicitly stated it:
There’s actually a looong leap from the known China-sponsored politicians to antisemitic cabal conspiracy theories
Not really, no.

Did you seriously read this as saying the Nazis were right?
I don’t know who would read that
And both are funded by the same Bankers, Weapons Makers and Resource Extractors

Truly a vibrant political system.
Democracy is when The People Decide if trans people should exist but the tax rate policy is written by the rich
