ELI5 guys, are we supporting or not supporting the Junta? All their moves seem to be in line with what we believe in..

Damn good question.

The problem is ... with the state of 'journalism' these days it's literally impossible to get a real feel for what's actually going on or not.

We know that the cops in Myanmar recently arrested 200 peaceful protestors, and that there have been deaths.

But we also know that in the US the media reported full scale riots which caused billions of dollars in damage, destroyed countless businesses, and resulted in an unknown number of deaths, injuries, and rapes as 'mostly peaceful'.

We also know that in Hong Kong the CCP absolutely attacked peaceful protests for no good reason.

I really can't tell what's going on.

The junta are horrible towards the people. Hundreds of protesters have been killed in recent months. If the burmese people had guns then junta would have been gone a long time ago. They dont have the support of the people, you should not either support them iether. What moves are you talking about? Have you seen the state of the country? They took money from soros great! The next day they sent police out with orders to shoot unarmed protesters.
