Such criticism is unusual, as Beijing is one of Russia’s top allies and has not condemned the all-out invasion of Ukraine.
These kind of titles OBLITERATE my desire to read the article.
Why? I read the original article published by Chinese embassy, the translation is accurate, even the use of “slam” seems justified given the wording of the original article.
Just trying to understand the downvotes here? What’s the criticism regarding this article?
Maybe because it’s using “slams” in the title.
that’s where my downvote comes from, at least
Tankies.
Maybe because it was released yesterday and people are angry it not fresh news. :)
I would guess it’s tankies or Russian apologists.
Lemmyers SLAM clickbait headlines with this one simple trick!
I downvote and don’t read any article that uses hypewords like “slam”. It’s like the arrows people put on their youtube thumbnails. Low effort journalism, but I guess it works.
I see no downvotes 🤔. It’s at +61/-0 right now so far as I can see…
For some reason downvotes from Lemmy don’t transfer over to kbin, but I don’t know how you see +61, for me it’s +35/-2
I mean it’s Politico - that alone makes me want to downvote.
Body slam!
It might be a very close relationship, but they still have to demonstrate to each other that you can’t mess with them. Don’t mess with my people is a cornerstone of diplomacy
