eldertree @la branch I saw this thread in the spam box since it was first posted but never brought it up intentionally. I did give hints here and there (by mentioning the Tibet thread and how double standards is the EB88 standard). I was just waiting, testing to see the first person to notice that thread. To tell you the truth, I was hoping for someone to bring it up. And lo and behold, you were the first (but that's something I've observed about you all the while I've been browsing EB88).

And I'll tell you why it's in spam. Depending on who put it there, the motives vary but remain roughly the same. TBH, I think it's poohunter the hypocrite who placed it there but I can't be certain. They're basically either:
1. trying to "protect" non-existant Burmese members on EB88 from being "played against each other" (but have no qualms about playing 'Han' Chinese against our own ethnic minorities/neighbors)
2. brushing aside any persecutions against 'Kokang Chinese' because we're lower than dirt, our lives don't really matter compared to other Asians they pander to (and who they've barely had a relationship with)

Here's why that logic is stupid and shows how racist and hypocritical EB88ers really are.
1. The MNDAA aren't just Chinese, they're multi-ethnic people including many other ethnic natives to those regions of which the Kokang are a part of. They've been fighting for a civil war for a long, long time. You don't even have to guess why they've decided to unite against the Myanmar army
2. They only care about Asians/peoples persecuted by "Chinese" (and mostly in the distant past), but think nothing of the natives persecuted/genocided by SEAs NOW.
3. They step all over these people just to trash the Chinese, who've tried their best to remain neutral (you can see Qu Don's retarded comments on Vietrealm for reference).

It's really easy to politicize what's going on in Myanmar, look down on them or silence their sufferings just to score brownie points vs China. Or say they're all Chinese, they deserve it. Easy especially when you don't have to suffer bombs, mines and artillery but instead write garbage on a forum.

So where's poohunter to defend these people's right to build their own paths? Where's 222, the expert of Shan, Dai and all Indochinese/Myanmar ethnicities to wish for their freedom? Where's the respect and compassion for people who clearly need it most?

The people I hate most are those holding contempt and little compassion for the most vulnerable, the undefended, the weak, the poor, the downtrodden. I despise those who callously mistreat and slander minorities without a voice of their own. Always have, always will.

To the certain somebodies, grow a heart and get some compassion for crying out loud.
