      I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it til these lungs are airless: “terrorist” is nothing more than the 21st century “savage” in the way the crackers weaponize it against people.

      • When we create, they call us copy right breaking thieves. When they kill us, they call us weaklings who can’t defend themselves. When we starve, they tell us we can’t live without the white man. When we fight, they call us terrorists. and we build something, they calls us a dictatorship regime. and just like we say in Algeria “Yetnako”

Then goes on to say how their version of ICQ was a) adapted to Chinese internet b) had extra features. I wonder what Chinese companies should’ve done according to him, just accept that ICQ solved chatting once and for all? Of course that’s a stupid question because he’s just fearmongering/spreading propaganda, but still…
