This is literally my parents. They told me to stop criticizing the people in power, even going as far as saying I shouldn’t criticize the government of my former country. I don’t even have citizenship in my former country anymore, not sure how I could even get in trouble for criticizing is effecively a foreign country to me. (I’m talking about PRC btw).
My mom told me to “just focus on improving your own life and stop worrying about things like you can’t control like politics” (as in, both the politics of my former country and the politics of my current country)
Am I in the wrong here? Should I just keep quiet and not say anything so that I don’t “get in trouble”?
Unfortunately that international pressure appears to be disintegrating before our eyes…
Yeah… fuck.
The pressure from the US is gone, since the US is now itself becoming dictatorial. So now it might work in reverse. Maybe trump is gonna try to make China to ban LGBTQ people, who knows. I mean, Russia and the US is getting so close now, and both countries are trying to ban LGBTQ people, this type of backwards policy could spread to China.
I hope the EU and other “progressive” trading partners of China is enough pressure to keep the CCP in check. (Seeing the AfD of Germany doubling in support, I’m kinda losing hope)
