You think that China does not extract any economic value out of Tibet? That’s pure naivete.

The victorious imperialists ALWAYS claim that their subjugation of another is to the benefit of that other nations. Always.

When people say “anti-woke”, they actually mean that they are anti-doing anything about the awareness of systemic inequality that wokeness indicates. By definition, someone who is against change/progress is a conservative, so when someone says they are anti-woke, they are by definition expressing a conservative stance. That is, wanting to do something about systemic inequality is synonymous with having a progressive stance on systemic inequality.

Being a tankie, on the other hand, is not synonymous with being a comunist. Tankies are just one form of communist (militant).

Listen, yes, I do see that I’m being unfair and dishonest. I tend to pop off without thinking

I actually think conservatives usually use the term “woke” correctly, though? Like, everything they call “woke” is typically good.

Yes, I can have an opinion on socialism without having been a socialist-revolutionary. That is correct. Spot on.

Yes yes yes, China freed and liberated Tibet by taking it over. Of course. Nothing imperialist about that.

Just like the US has been liberating and freeing all those people in the middle east.

I don’t generally believe in supporting the US, since it is an emperialist, capitalist country.
