I don’t believe it’s a comparison between the two. More like a meme showing paralels between supporting imperialism from different sources. I say this as someone who thinks USA is a bit worse. But I also think its a garbage to garbage comparison. So theres that.
I wish China was something I could classify as socialist but alas…
Yeah. I mean, we could quibble all day as to their relative awfulness, about where supporting another country’s genocide to the hilt and planning others (Trump) measures against executing an ongoing genocide (PRC and the Uyghurs) weighs, but in both cases, it’s, uh, close enough that I wouldn’t want to be caught dead playing apologist for either. The point is that tankies disdain one boot and love the other, when if they had any sense of decency they would just not lick boots; not that they should love the MAGA boot or prefer it to the PRC’s.
