    Shitting on the CCP in any ML community will get you banned for “orientalism”

    I specifically said the people of China are nice but the CCP can go fuck itself

      I met couple of Chinese who acknowledge the party is tyrannical but they avoid delving deeper into politics. Despite having emigrated, it’s a learned response I guess for many Chinese not to talk about politics.

        This is because it’s illegal to criticize the CCP in China. You can get arrested for this.
        We in the west talk a lot of crap about freedom of speech but don’t realize how precious a thing it truly is.

        That’s a totally understandable response. What’s not understandable is denying any wrongdoing from the CCP.
