  • To be fair, none of that was in your original post. Not knowing all of that, I think it was a safe assumption you meant the allegations of mistreatment by the CCP, rather than the Falun Gong claims of benevolence.

    Obviously you didn’t though, and a quick Google search suggests you might have some valid points. I didn’t know any of that!

    However, I do want to point out that you could say most of the same things about fundamental Christians, and while I’d personally take the same view of those types ( I do believe they’re a dangerous cult) I wouldn’t say anyone calling them peaceful religious types was engaging in “Alex Jones level of manipulation of the truth” and wouldn’t discount them entirely for holding that view. Particularly when, as you say, it’s very likely they are actually being persecuted

    But hey, if nothing else I think you’ve shown that I have no idea what I’m talking about here. Maybe that comparison doesn’t actually hold. Also, for all I know he’s a bought and paid for propagandist. Honestly, nothing surprises me these days


  • I don’t think what he’s saying about Falun Gong is so far fetched to be outside the realm of plausibility.

    There’s been enough reports of similar treatment of other groups, like the Uyghurs and Tibetans, from reputable sources that I believe something is going on there.

    As for sources, if the CCP is half as bad as he makes them out to be, it would be irresponsible of him to give sources.

    I don’t know enough to refute anything you’ve said, but frankly you’re less credible than him right now. I mean no offense but you have a single comment on your account and you’ve offered nothing to support your claim of twisted truth.

    Too much smoke to conclude there’s no fire










  • My idea is essentially to match the official stand that ships with it, but flip it and put a stand on the “bottom.” I think it’ll be really nice aesthetically but unfortunately it seems like it’s not as simple as just mirroring it. To tell the truth, I’m probably going to end up going this route anyway, but I feel like I have to at least try the hard way first
