    1. Cool.

    2. China is not supporting Israel, nor the plan. They’ve already said they are dedicated to building a Palestinian state and that the current plan doesn’t include that, and they also stated that disarmament is unacceptable.

    3. Wrong on two counts. China is not aiding or supporting the colonization, they just haven’t taken an interventionist approach to stopping it like we would both likely prefer. Either way, this is not imperialism on China’s part. Imperialism is a form of international extraction, the reason the west is imperialist with respect to Palestine is because they need the settler-colonial project as a landlocked aircraft carrier. China doesn’t rely on the same international extraction, nor is it one of the active participants in colonizing Palestine. At worst, it’s insufficient in its actions.

    4. You keep saying I’m using the same logic as Kamala supporters, but here you are saying “it’s beyond obvious” and gesturing to things that don’t have clear connections. This kind of baseless bashing is exactly what liberals do.

    I’d appreciate if you answered this directly:

    Do you believe China is imperialist, or insufficiently anti-imperialist? Which is it?

      1. They voted for the colonization plan haha are you going to tell me Kamala Harris supports a two state solution too?

      I will not respond to anything else this is a massive waste of time.

        The DNC was and is actively arming the IDF and is part of the same country planning and pushing for the colonization plan. This is ridiculous. China abstained, restated its continued goal of Palestinian statehood, and has stated that the resistance cannot be disarmed. China isn’t the one arming the IDF, nor is it the one pushing the colonial plan. These are entirely different.

        You’re pulling the same shit as those who said voting for PSL or not voting was a vote for Trump, literally doing liberal gymnastics right now, and accusing me of doing the same.
