    “Days later, Tam reversed his decision and decided that Li had a case to answer, saying it was the defence who must bear the burden of proof, not the prosecution.”

        Yup, and we should 100% abolish that nonsense. And while we’re at it, let’s abolish qualified immunity as well.

      I mean…incidentally everyone seems to be more concerned with poking the bear in this thread, than the actual topic being discussed…

      World [email protected] removed an opinion peace critical of the CCP. Check the mod log filtering on my name. So now I post in lemmy.ml which seems to have a more mature culture of debate and discussion based on search of opinion posts and pinned politics post of the lemmy.ml owner.

        I just looked at the mod log for that community and it doesn’t show anything removed with your name, nor anything related to the CPC or China at all. In fact, there’s almost nothing in the mod log for that community; it seems to remove hardly anything.

            Opinion article. Please feel free to repost with facts and a better source. See the sticky post about missinformation and news soruces. >Thanks

            As long as they’re consistently removing all opinion pieces then I don’t really see a problem.

                Interesting how you take advantage of, and work like a moderate shitlib for INGFASH promotion. You should really ask NED for grants, they will be happy to oblige for your hardwork.
