  • The chinese state, as most authoritarian regimes are, is first and foremost concerned with maintaining power. They do this, primarily by suppressing political opposition. In furtherance of this goal, they restrict the flow of information that could encourage political opposition in any conceivable way. That is the main reason it exists.

    They do crack down on piracy when economically beneficial, as I understand it. But it’s not the purpose of the firewall and, even then, they do have means to circumvent it.



  • If your world view is based upon a conspiracy theory with little to no backing evidence, you are bound to face mockery.

    When you use these theories to suppress the rights of others and act like a barbaric caveman, either conflict arises or you have an ideological dictatorship.

    Religion is great at detaching you from reality and your fellow man. Calling it human decency to encourage both of those behaviors is absolutely awful and you should be deeply ashamed.
