    My original spawn was a dictatorship, I wasn’t supposed to be born.

    Guess what, I left that dictatorship, now I’m in a different dictatorship (I mean its better, but only slightly better, with unique challenges like having to deal with xenophobes). Isn’t life just so wonderful? 🫠

    Please don’t be Earth, give me a Class 3 civilization with a post-scarcity civilization.

          Lol the other way around wouldn’t make sense.

          China does not accept immigrants, The US does (or at least they did before 2025, idk about now).

          First dictatorship, the one I was born in, is People’s Republic of China.

          The second dictatorship I’m referring to, the one I’m currently living in and have citizenship of, is the 2025 trump regime.

            Better jump the train to the EU. We don’t have a dictatorship, we only have a neighbour who tries to invade.

            Service guarantees full citizenship!

            ;)

              Because its a protest flag done out of spite.

              Just like people can wave a Ukraine flag to protesr against Russia, or Palestine flag to protest againsr Israel. Its for solidarity.

                From the Chinese immigrants I know that were actually at that event, they say China was not like it was today. There was “democracy” and open exchange of ideas, but as the left pushed for more and the government was changing it came to a head.

                I think eerily similar to what is happening in USA with Trumps admin.

                After the clash, their government went full authoritarian, and hunting down protestors.

                It looks like USA left movements have been too slow to become the tank man guy though.
