Misinformation spreads in China on ‘civil war’ in Texas::Chinese social media cheers intensifying standoff between Texas and the White House over illegal migrants.
Gosh. It’s so unlike China to spread lies. I mean, any comparison to the GOP must be purely coincidence.
A classic chicken or the egg scenario
Yes, should I get general gau chicken or egg foo yong
How about egg on face?
It’s a big disgrace
Waving your flag all over their face.
The egg predates the chicken by a long shot, no one ever specifies it’s a chicken egg.
Can’t wait to see the animated Chinese news broadcasts covering this topic like they have with some other American news events

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Amid the escalating border standoff between Texas and the White House over illegal immigration, misinformation has spread in China that the Lone Star state has officially declared war to secede from the US.
Popular Chinese outlets have been suggesting that events in Texas have led to deep divisions in the US widening to a point where unrest has become a stark reality.
More than 6.3m migrants have crossed into the US illegally since the beginning of 2021 - record highs that have intensified a standoff between President Joe Biden and Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
As part of his Operation Lone Star, Mr Abbott has sought to block or deter entry into his state, including by installing about 30 miles (48km) of razor wire barriers along the city of Eagle Pass.
A Voice of America journalist Wenhao, who specialises in Chinese online disinformation, posted on X that the “biggest US related news on China’s internet for the past few days is Texas governor declaring war with the federal government, which did not happen in reality”.
Social media users in China on Friday, for example, were able to read reports that Florida’s Republican governor Ron DeSantis is sending up to 1,000 members of the National Guard to Texas.
