To distinguish real friends from real enemies, we must make a general analysis of the economic status of the various classes in Chinese society and of their respective attitudes towards the revolution.

people on the other twitter are always posting like. “i’ve had it up to here [gesturing at thigh level] with this site. the addition of a button on every woman’s page to harass her with deepfake nudes of herself is the penultimate straw. i’m about ready to seriously consider leaving.”
