.ml stands for Marxist-Leninist so for some reason there is generally a lot of praise for China which is closer to fascism than either of those idealogies.

I am once again asking liberals to learn that fascism doesn't mean "a thing I don't like"

It's authoritarian with large amounts of state capitalism combined with high amounts of nationalism. That sure as shit is not communist.

I am once again asking liberals to learn that words in general have meaning beyond synonyms for "good" and "bad".

Good lord you butchered each and every single term you used in this comment.

Did you ever have a period in your life where you just shut up and listened until you felt you understood what was going on? It doesn't appear to be the case from the outside.

Now that you're in a community that's liberated from the US-centric echo chamber you just came from no more than a month ago, it's a very good opportunity to start now!

Mali gives (gave?) out .ml domains for free, which is why it was chosen
