There’s really nothing beneficial for the Uyghurs or the Hong Kong protestors or anyone who’s being oppressed but the Chinese government by

Someone on Reddit making a Winnie the Pooh meme.

No, you’re not sticking it to the man.

No, the Chinese president is not going to be following your Reddit account and crying in the corner after seeing how much karma your post have received and change his ways.

No, you’re not helping anyone in China and Hong Kong get freedom by posting Tiananmen Square pictures.

Uniformed Chinese people from China aren’t going to become “woke” by you posting these on a site that is in English and not popular over there.

There’s also literally nothing to be gained for anyone who’s being oppressed by China from you boycotting Blizzard. At the worst, Blizzard games would be banned in China and all you’re doing is taking away another form of entertainment from the citizens who already have very limited access to things from around the world and making them even more uninformed than before.

——————-

What you’ve gained is just for yourself.

You have showed off to others how much you’re for freedom on social media.

You got nice amount of karma.

Next month, you would forget about all this and chase after another trend that would get you more attention.

Disclaimer: not towards those who are posting news updates related to China. This is for those who post crap like, “let’s not let people forget X and Y”, “let’s cheer for the protestors because freedom, America and eagles”, “I hate blizzard”, etc.
