You can post articles critical of the US, EU, Australian or any other government, but if you post a China-critical text you are whatabouted to death.

this will be a blunt comment. people would have no problem if you were doing this, but just in a quick scan, something like 10 of your last 15 submissions on our instance (Beehaw) are you obsessively posting about China--often from sources that are straight up fearmongering and/or guilty of doing literally the same thing they're complaining China is doing. one of the most egregious submissions you've made in this vein is quite literally from the House Select Committee on China, as if the American government's committee on "competition with the United States" doesn't obviously have a vested interest in portraying things China does in the most uncharitable light possible (much as China would for America).

separately, and in a Beehaw context: at least from our userbase, you will largely not find disagreement that China is bad--nobody here really needs to be proselytized to the fact that China is an authoritarian capitalist country guilty of acts of imperialism against their neighbors, and probably of ethnic cleansing and genocide in Xinjiang. in fact, partially because of our political disagreements in that space, we do not federate with many of the Lemmy instances you might characterize as "pro-China." this fact makes it incredibly conspicuous when someone like yourself obsessively posts every neurosis a Western country has about China on our instance. we've had a pattern of several users doing this in the past year or so--and at this point it's blatantly propagandistic and Sinophobic bullshit we're just not interested in letting people use our instance for.

even if you aren't doing this for propagandistic reasons, though, and just think you need to push back against pro-China campists on Lemmy or whatever: this is also not your personal anti-China dumping ground, nor is it a place for you to shadowbox with campists who think China is cool. if you are genuinely posting in good faith: diversify your submissions and, if you don't, at least drop the persecution complex when people push back on your voluminous China posting; if this is just using us as some middle-man in a bigger thing: going forward we're going to aggressively prune these types of post.
