I do think we should raise awareness of attacks on democracy, freedom of speech or journalism.
I kind of annoys me a little when some person on Lemmy says how great Russia or China is. Sure US surveillance is not great to to compare it to China is not a great comparison. Maybe I’m just taking it to seriously.
I don’t live in those places, so 1) they don’t affect me or anyone else in my country and 2) there’s nothing I can do about them.

China is no utopia and Russia much less so, but neither is nearly as bad as imperial core governments & corporate media try to convince us they are, and neither holds a candle to my own country.
