In all the years I’ve been around, both on the internet & among friends and acquaintances from Asia (incl. Taiwan & China), WtP has been a symbol of resistance against Xi Jin Ping and authoritarianism in China.

I know .ml is heavily tankie in general, but just need a double check from the more reasonable parts of the internet.

    I stopped realizing it, but MACA is quite literally the slogan of Xi: 中华民族的伟大复兴 often translated to “Great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation” in official English version. However, I feel a more accurate translation might be "the great resuscitation of the Chinese race."1

    Basically the xenophobia of MAGA with a sprinkle of racial pride on top.

    1. “Chinese race” is likely not a scientific concepts, as Chinese people are made up of at least tens of different races, for the last two thousand years.
