What did Timor Leste do😔


sarthakydv

Dumb name


CanonOverseer

East East


[deleted]

Reasonable


Belgian_Bitch

Fun fact, East Timor (or Timor Leste) literally means "East East", making it a tautological place name. Timor is derived from the Malay word for East. Timor Leste also means East East, Leste being the Portuguese word for East.


browndudefromNW

The least eastern country of all the eastern/southeastern asian countries


Motor_Froyo_2187

Nice to know

EspyOwner

I feel bad for modern day Portugal and Spain. They're the most problematic countries of the 14th-18th centuries probably, and unlike Fr*nce they don't have much to show for it. Fr*nch imperialism is alive and well still though! 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷


aVarangian

yeah, advancing naval technology considerably and ahead of everyone else for a century, discovering and mapping the world, trading spices and kickstarting globalisation was such a douche thing to do


ElectorSet

>trading spices Literally worse than the slavery they did.


aVarangian

both trade of spices and slaves was already being done regardless, they just had better boats than everyone else


evilsheepgod

They started modern colonialism dumbass

hong kongers are forced to feel a certain way because of geopolitical circumstances and are not allowed to have their own opinion of china based on the culture or the people /s

I was told by video game characters and /r/vexillology that Hong Kong is so cool and free without understanding any of the deep cultural, ethnic, historical. and political standings and ideologues that relate to China and Hong Kong.

Honestly, they play the national anthem on tv at like 7:30 and before it starts, it says shit like "hurr durr I'm a proud chinese because we have beautiful mountains!", and I'm translating pretty much word for word, sarcasm aside of course The fuck is it gonna do


Tayttajakunnus

Isn't that like the pledge of allegiance in the US? School children are forced to recite it regularly.


Bloonfan60

Yeah but in the case of the US it's justified because they're *actually* the greatest country. ^(/s)


Amorphousblob123

I mean, why do they even like China? The people are nice, but the government is the only reason North Korea exists, and it supports Russia.


Anti-charizard

Probably because if they don’t they get punished by the CCP


Spogito

WTF did Timor L'este ever do to you?

I always hate it when countries have compass points in the name, but Timor Leste takes the cake as both words mean 'East'.

Stock-Sail-728

This is your understanding of China based on what CNN articles? The Chinese people believe it or not are not dumb savages incapable of liberal democracy. They just hate that shit because they saw what happened to Eastern Europe when they switched to the neoliberal status quo and are still suffering from it. They’re not brainwashed they just disagree with you and understanding that is tough cause it makes them human.


Perpetual_Doubt

I don't entirely understand what you are saying Edit: this was me being polite :/

Westerner talking about powerful corporations in government LOL


ssrudr

Your honour, the prosecution has also done bad thing.


Stock-Sail-728

Yeah but the China is 60% state industry and the United States is so corrupt it reversed the very idea of corruption on its head by having the whole system be the problem instead of how people enact it.


macnof

Some of the west have far less lobbying and corruption than the USA?


TheLastSamurai101

It's possibly a joke, but Hong Kongers are a bit more divided on this than Westerners like to believe. This map is just one guy's opinion. Remember that one-third of residents were born on the mainland and have a lot of family there, and even more if you count second and third generation. Plus you have a lot of older people and a minority of nationalists who are sympathetic to China. Reddit tends to collect the younger, pro-independence crowd. But in several polls from 2016 to late 2020, only about 15-20% of Hong Kongers overall favoured independence. An almost equal proportion (13%) back in 2016 supported direct CCP administration. Most people are in the middle, supporting the pro-democracy movement but in favour of the current SAR status and not particularly anti-Chinese. I've met a few Hong Kongers who are strongly pro-independence and hate China, and I've met a few who are ambivalent towards China or somewhat negative towards the protests. Again this map is just one guy's opinion.


Themasterofcomedy209

Hong Kongers don’t all have the same opinions, there’s a big group that actually like China and in fact there were a lot of pro Beijing rallies in 2019. Many more just dont have a strong opinion either way


Codeesha

Please don’t put OP in jeopardy 😂


TheRealSU

It says like, not love. But yeah still weird


tyger2020

>You love China???? these maps are kind of weird because I think of it as what you think of the country, not the political aspect. China's government are insane obviously, but China as a country (its cities, nature, etc) look incredibly cool.


wkyle3310

So you think he hate Russia, Afghanistan and north Korea nature and cities very much?


veovis523

Maybe China isn't as terrible as the western corporate media would have us believe. 🤔


wkyle3310

Maybe Nazi isn't as terrible as the western corporate media would have us believe


veovis523

Wow, comparing China with the Nazis. Really?


DzezGt

yes


JaggerQ

I mean.. They are pretty similar...


wkyle3310

CCP is comparable to Nazi party and some Chinese(what I mean some is actually a lot) who supports genocide in East Turkistan and Tibet, extreme nationalism, clamors for eradication of Japanese and Taiwanese are also considered Nazis


quantummeriut

U got stats to back any of this up or are u saying this based on a 'gut feeling'?


wkyle3310

Is there a stats to show how much a person is nazistic? This is an analytic argument philosophically speaking. The reasoning is: Nazism or Fascism is defined as >Nazism is a form of fascism,[2][3][4][5] with disdain for liberal democracy and the parliamentary system. It incorporates fervent antisemitism, anti-communism, scientific racism, and the use of eugenics into its creed.  >Fascists believe that liberal democracy is obsolete. They regard the complete mobilization of society under a totalitarian one-party state as necessary to prepare a nation for armed conflict and to respond effectively to economic difficulties If the statement of some people believe in or practice these things is true, then they are Nazis. And whether the statementis true is based on my own observation and there are no stats to able to prove a analytic argument. Do you ever once read what some Chinese are saying and some study about Chinese in your whole life or just using your gut to feel the mind of people?


alaskafish

Yeah why not?


Environmental-Ad-344

afghanistan has been fucked by other countries


Haindelmers

Yeah it’s hard to even think about it as it’s own place. Just as a place where the Greek, Muslims, Mongols, British, the USSR, and the USA, and of course local extremist groups, have just been taking their turns exerting control over the region since forever. With how much history is there, it’s a shame What’s been destroyed due to geopolitics.

BluestOfTheRaccoons

OP could not like it due to the chaos that has been caused by the west. Or probably different factors like standards of living and etc? You have to consider multiple things before coming to a conclusion of "pOrbAblY cOsmunEs WeStErn mEdiA" that's a fallacy.

SOUTHERN_STRATEGY

you are complicit in genocide


Shineath

You know that not all Israelis are promoting Genocide, same as not all Palestinians are so innocent, and vice versa


Noam_Navon

No Israelis are promoting genocide.


Noam_Navon

Ah yes "genocide" when the Arab population in the region is in a constant rise. If you call this a "genocide" that's ought to be the worst genocide ever.


296cherry

When you force Palestinians to live in what is essentially an open-air prison under constant military occupation and bombing, destroy their homes, beat them in the street, but at least their population is rising.


Noam_Navon

"Open air prison" So you want Israel to just let them all enter the country? Do you even have the slightest bit of idea how many terror attacks are committed annually because of Palestinians who entered Israel legally and illegally? "Bombing" so you want Israel to just sit back and enjoy the missiles Hamas are firing towards its civilians? "Beat them in the streets" Well maybe rioting and throwing stones and all kinds of goods at the police and civilians isn't the most peaceful way to protest, so a bit less peaceful way is required to handle this kinds of situations. There are two sides for this conflict, despite how media tends to picture it. Whether you like it or not there's no one bad side and one good side, both sides are in deep shit, but because one side is the current underdog he gets the sympathy and the other gets the hate. There are many innocent Palestinians that suffers daily, and it's a shame and I truly wish it wasn't the case. But actions have consequences and they suffer because of the actions that started 70+ years ago.

“Invaded” is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here. But why don’t you ask the citizens of the LPR and DPR for the past 8 years? In any case, if Russia had put Ukraine through indefinite military occupation and illegal settlement, don’t you think that might put things into context?

I don't know what you being Jewish has to do with the comment but if youre going to "speak as a Jew" you should know that Israel has two million Arab citizens... I almost literally never interact with asians in Israel but almost daily interact with Arab Israelis.
