From Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/de1ysj/china_acc... -

"If you ever wondered how the whole world stood by and watched as the Nazis came to power and began committing atrocities here’s your answer."

The whole thread has similar commentary - along with morbid humor: "The next Disney movie will feature forced abortions to appease China."

Makes me think of brand names - who are still in existence today - who provided services, products, to similar regimes; Russell Brand Rips on GQ, Hugo Boss, referencing Syria War and Nazi Germany - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inB-6R1-4ng

Edit to add: Seems the pro-tyrants of China's leadership brigade is here: I had 2 upvotes, now at 0. Or if the people downvoting don't understand what's going on in China is akin to Nazi Germany then they're either indoctrinated in propaganda or haven't studied, analyzed, understood the situation adequately.

The pro-china movement on HN is extremely strong. It's fun to look at all the pro-China commenters, and then look through the account history for how long their account has existed, the kind of articles they submit and their comments.

It couldn't be more obvious.

Playing the devils advocate, maybe they are using an alt account because they don’t want people like you finding them in real life.

That's not what playing devil's advocate means in the slightest.
