Absolutely shocked he doesn’t have a blue check
:xi-pog:
Zenz sucks, but this ironic dipshitting around jailing critics is cringe as fuck.
Maybe actually read the article before just believing what a notorious China watching liar has to say about it. The headline buries the lede. They were arrested for publishing books they didn’t obtain publishing rights for, not for criticism. They just claim that “ACTUALLY IT WAS ABOUT US HATING THE GOVERNMENT, NOT ABOUT THE VERY CLEARLY ILLEGAL BUSINESS STUFF WE DID”
Good try. Everyone does illegal shit, they just make examples out of dissidents.
Your rationale is the same that justifies the targeting of minorities for drug laws and traffic infractions. Maybe next time they just shouldn’t be doing anything illegal.
This literally just sounds like a less explicitly racist version of when Liberals say some shit like “chinese culture is breaking the law”, she sold 200.000 illegally produced copies of books but because she once said a critic was good thats the only reason she was punished.
Yeah. Its past time for Chapo to unironically support the jailing of liberals.
He said Geng had been indicted over illegal business activities involving 200,000 copies of mostly cookery books for which the full publishing rights had not been obtained.
“‘Illegal business activities’ is just an alternative charge to ‘inciting state subversion’ when it comes to entrepreneurs who are critical of China’s political ecology,” Ji said. “The purpose is to intimidate, silence and cut off all social networks they have with political dissidents in a bid to isolate them.”
This is literally just a case of some petite bourgeois fucks cutting corners to make a buck and running crying to the western media trying to become an international incident.
This is like the psycho conservatives in America crying about oppression of the MAGAS when they get busted for wage theft or whatever.

I just crossed off “didn’t read the article” and “believed the first white person at face value” off my Western Liberal bingo card.
Andrain Zenz hands you their business card and it reads, “Adrian Zenz, Honey Pot”
Okay, first time seeing his image, not to body-shame or anything, but he literally looks like a CIA/government stooge.
It’s a vibe more than anything. You know, the bald/balding middle-aged white dude who wears a suit and glasses and smiles like this
You know he’s thinking how he’s gonna fuck up some African/South American democracy in that image.
