I was banned without notice for calling out that supporting Putin is not something we should be doing, check my post history, you won’t easily find people more radicalized than me.

This was my final post:

///

To let things slide for the sake of peace and friendship when a person has clearly gone wrong, and refrain from principled argument because he is an old acquaintance, a fellow townsman, a schoolmate, a close friend, a loved one, an old colleague or old subordinate.

Like we’re doing with Putin?

///

“Like we’re doing with Putin?” in reply to a Mao quote, genzdong’s front page at the time was full of threads and posts defending Putin.

Not defending Ukraine is understandable, attacking the USA is understandable but trying to defend and justify Putin is a direct offense against Mao’s teachings.

Putin has clearly gone wrong, we mustn’t refrain from principled argument because he’s an old acquaintance (is he?).

    Agreed. Critical support means you have qualms about something you support. China, DPRK, Iran, Russia, Belarus fall under my critical support category.
