The China Thread

Compare the comparable.
The conversation wasn't about police brutality, but about online censorship/VPN ban.

Real Lives brought up the subject of police brutality in China, describing it and posting several old pictures of police brutality in Tiananmen Square, in this post above (link below), to which I responded.

There's a ton of examples how the west censors online speech (and there's more legislation in the making), You could use - posting some French protestors get shot by the cops has nothing to do with it.

Take what I wrote earlier to heart:
 
I would think that as a Catholic you would want the church to be able to manage their own affairs like they do in the other countries in Asia without secular state interference - especially when the state is in China's case is officially atheistic.

Okay, let's try to address this elephant in the room.

Countless Churches have been politicized and are clearly afraid of lawfare, or worse, from the state or other actors. This is all assuming they're not ideologically subverted. The reason you don't see Christian persecution is because there isn't much Christian resistance to state policies. We have seen plenty of defrocking to avoid this across the western world. Religions like Islam have seen state intervention for fostering extremism. It doesn't excuse China, but I'm not going to defend Anglicans teaching the Chinese God knows what.

What guys like IIMT seem to be alluding to, is the fact that some of "our" churches are not really helping to save the west. Something people on this forum say should be saved, in its current form even. I'm not sure how someone can advocate for complete religious freedom at this point. I want muslims outright banned to start. I can also see why Hitler decided to get involved.

It is true that in many ways, Catholics are more free in say Japan or Taiwan than in Mainland China. I believe that there are restrictions on Christian schools in China, and that might be the main problem, in terms of Christian life in China. This being said, by no means are the restrictions on Catholics as severe as the persecution of Catholics and Protestants alike in say, India.

The point that IIMT brought up is also valid, that secular state interference has also permeated the Vatican itself since the 1960s, and ironically enough, the local Taoist version of Logos or Dao is in some ways closer to ours than the post-Vatican II heresies, a point that E. Michael Jones has mentioned.

This is a good and very relevant discussion subject that should be addressed on this thread, I will try to gather and share some good info from reliable sources.

I think that both of You are no longer posting to have a conversation about China, but to prove the other wrong.
And all You can see is the mote in Your brother's eye, but not the beam in Your own.

So I would like to remind everyone about the forum rules: be humble.

Point taken brother, but Isn't pointing out the beam in our own eye literally what I did by showing RLS the situation in our own glass houses where the police shoots out people's eyes?
 
It is a much better thing than what we find in 99% of the churches in the west. If you don't agree, then you stand on the side of satanic feminism, homosexuality and anti-national state/tower of Babel. If you do agree, good, how can we fix our situation and not care what China does or does not do, because we have much bigger problems over here.
Nah this is a bad take. You wouldn't want to be a Christian in China. Not unless you want to hide in caves. While that does foster a purer, more Biblical form of Christianity, it's not ideal. You also have the CCP cooking up their own Bible translations.

In the West, you still have much freedom to believe what you want. That freedom is being eroded, but its more than you'll get in China right now. The tradeoff is you get a lot of garbage alongside the real Christianity, but if you are a real Christian, it's still nice to not have to go totally underground because of it.

You have freedom in Christianity in the west as long as you remain anti-White and pro-feminist. If you go against these two, good luck in what the govt. decides to do to you.

With that said, it isn't what I want, or you want, it is what is. And what is, is China is beating the hell out of the west because they don't import third world people. And this isn't going to change without a major revolution against the western system. So, unless we see something major, what I want, or you want, doesn't matter, China is going to win. And after they win, they will impose their will on us, due to being the stronger civilization. At best, or they just get rid of us altogether.

I'm not anti-white and I'm not pro-feminist and I still have freedom to believe the Gospel and go to a Bible-believing church unabated. Can't say that in China.

I agree that the US has lost the plot and that China has their eyes on the prize. Nevertheless, this is an aside.

The Chinese are free to believe in those things as well. The difference is, in the west, increasingly, churches are turning to anti-White/anti-family policies as they are controlled top down as well. At least the churches in China are not directed to attack their own majority population and encourage women to destroy civilization.

It is far from an "aside" it is all that matters. In the end might makes right. It doesn't matter what feels good, or sounds good, or is "fair" the most dominant civilization always rules. And as third world immigrants move into the west and spit out children, China just moves further and further beyond anything we will ever achieve. It is only a matter of time at this point, and the only stopping it is a Fascist White Nationalist uprising in the west, which I do not see happening due to numbers and lack of desire from young men.

I have read somewhere ( IIRC I think I also saw a video clip) of China policemen tracking down China Christians when they tried to do prayer sessions via Zoom. They traced the IP addresses to where the Christians were and had them arrested. Have also seen videos of China churches being set on fire by the authorities or being demolished with government bulldozers.

No. Don't tell me there aren't any underground churches in China and don't tell me that the CCP isn't working on a government-approved Bible translation of their own.

Sure, yea, I am sure they are. It still doesn't matter, they are winning, their way is winning, the will conquer the globe due to it. The only stop for this is a Fascist White National revolution in the west. You are arguing emotionally which is better, I am just simply logically stating that the system that wins all that matters, and who is winning is clear as day.

Yea, they might do this, I don't know. How are you going to stop them?
 
You went from defending the CCP for regulating Christianity as a positive thing to "I'm sure they actually do persecute people who practice Christianity in a serious manner but so what?" real quick.
No, I didn't, and again, everyone can read my words and see you personal attacks is all you have left.

I said, they might do that, I don't know, it is possible they do it, but that it doesn't matter if they do it or not, because they are winning. This isn't an emotional debate about what you or they, think is right or wrong. Life doesn't work like that. In life might makes right, and whatever they are doing is working better than what we are doing, because they are absolutely crushing us. Which is why I asked, "what are you going to do about it?" because the answer is "we can't do anything about it because they are much more powerful than we are due to our own even more evil ways of handling things in the west has caused us to fall way too far behind".
 
You were suggesting that the CCP oversees Christianity in China and then said "It is a much better thing than what we find in 99% of the churches in the west."


People are calling you out specifically for your claim that Christianity under CCP control is better then it is in the west. You are responding by trying to change the topic into your usual "China will turn everyone into soylent green" spiel. Changing topic to deflect is something you commonly do when you can no longer defend your point. You'll be losing an argument and then you'll suddenly bust out a non sequitur like "Do you think voting will change anything/do you think Trump will change anything" when no one in the argument was talking about voting or Trump. Likewise, people are specifically challenging your stance on Christianity in China and you are all of a sudden changing the topic to how China is winning when no here is talking about whether China will "win" or not.

Yes, I agree, it is better than what we have. They have a country with a bright future. We have a country that is collapsing. Are you trying to say this isn't true? I sure hope not, but it appears that you are. Your feelings about what you think is better means absolutely nothing. Reality is, it is a war, and they are winning and that is the only thing in life that will matter.
