Hell, even their mass produced fake electronics paint a grim picture at the micro level of how that country operates.
Where do most iPhones and other smartphones and laptops come from? What country has more high speed rail trackage than every other country combined? Yes, they will also output cheap crap if companies are willing to sell them.
That’s also hysterical that you are removed about western propaganda, when China is the undisputed king of bulk fake news.
Where to start…
A KGB spy and a CIA agent meet up in a bar for a friendly drink.
“I have to admit, I’m always so impressed by Soviet propaganda. You really know how to get people worked up,” the CIA agent says.
“Thank you,” the KGB says. “We do our best but truly, it’s nothing compared to American propaganda. Your people believe everything your state media tells them.”
The CIA agent drops his drink in shock and disgust. “Thank you friend, but you must be confused… There’s no propaganda in America.”

Below is a copypasta of my own comment last week, in response to someone’s weapons-grade gish gallop: “I’m pretty sure the Tiananmen square massacre was a bigger crime. Not to mention their genocide of the Uighur people, their oppression of Hong Kong, their attempts to steal Taiwan’s sovereignty.”

This bullshit never ends, does it?
Hong Kong was the product of the UK’s century of Chinese oppression, and their 99 year lease on oppressing Hong Kong ended in 1997.
Taiwan is only considered sovereign by eleven countries, most of which are micronations like the Holy See, the Marshall Islands, and Tuvalu: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_status_of_Taiwan
I guess some things just never actually happened.

The banality of liberalism.
My country is manufacturing consent for a World War III that could end in nuclear winter, and I dissent.
Delete more of my posts you coward.
Reporter, I’d like to know how an anti-imperialist stance is reactionary or how a debunking of Five Eyes propaganda is tribalist.
