  • epoch times is not far-right...it's against authoritarian china... i mean, like, i never bothered with those weirdos and their stuff, but a lot of the cult accusations are also part of china's narrative. Why are the falungongians so salty about china? well, their organs are harvested by china. they are treated worse than hailsham students in ' never let me go' - literally by losingfocus2015 (Sat 14th Nov 2020 6:56pm)

  • nice formatting, much wow i'm not english or wtever so defo not the other party, there is no 'we' here considering i mentioned china being a genocide regiem and you go off the handle over the shitty things this countries have done, yeah it is whataboutism i mean, unless you are about to say that you personally perpertrated those crimes then yeah, i get your point and it makes so much sense now because i just saw your comments on cia blah blah blah seriously, if CIA did everything people say they did, they'd probably have to employ more than usa's population in their department...try again tankie by losingfocus2015 (Sun 15th Nov 2020 5:12pm)

  • that's such a waste of time though, if they are just advertising at a lower price to get people in, what's the point if people who offer are going to offer too low anyway? especially if the sale price is 10% over the home report price by losingfocus2015 (Sat 23rd Oct 2021 1:43am)
