The People’s Republic of China, the fascist state of China, showed more of its Nazi-adjacent tendencies when it released its latest official maps of the world without any mention of Israel. Baidu’s Chinese language online maps show the demarcations for Israel-proper but fail to label Israel as Israel.
In China, it should be remembered that publishing maps not approved by the CCP could land you in jail or with a bullet lodged in the back of your skull. In the recent past, China has used map-making to “take” territory from its neighbors, like Russia and India.
Now, China has decided to use map-making to signal to the world their support of a Jewish genocide in Israel, yet the leftists who call themselves antifascists will continue to support and do business with this violent, imperialistic regime even as they destroy the lives of Americans for daring to call a woman a woman and a man a man.
From wsj.com: Internet users in China are expressing bewilderment that the name Israel doesn’t appear on leading online digital maps from Baidu and Alibaba, an ambiguity that matches Beijing’s vague diplomacy in the region and contrasts with its attentiveness to maps generally.
Baidu’s Chinese language online maps demarcate the internationally recognized borders of Israel, as well as the Palestinian territories, plus key cities, but don’t clearly identify the country by name. The same is true with online maps produced by Alibaba’s Amap, where even small nations like Luxembourg are clearly marked. Neither company responded to questions on Monday. It is unclear whether the development is new, though it has been discussed by Chinese internet users since war broke out.
China’s government has over the years cried foul and levied fines over maps published elsewhere online, such as on hotel websites, for failing to strictly adhere to Beijing’s territorial claims, like leaving off a nine-dotted line stretching around the South China Sea that isn’t internationally recognized.
The move by China follows its recent actions calling for an immediate ceasefire, which would only benefit Hamas, who initiated this latest war by murdering over 1,300 Israeli citizens, including women, children, and infants. It also refused to call Hamas a terrorist organization.
Here we have an openly Nazi state still being supported by far-left corporations like Apple that continue to do business with this regime while at home larp at being “antifascist.”
