suspicious timing on a new R/place. Also suspicious is these new Chinese propaganda ads. "People Flee the AUD" with a the CCP flag over parliament house? Disgusting.
yeah I’m not joining r/place this year
I helped with a line of Fuck Spez. But thats it.
I'm just trying to defend Bluey and Bingo.
I'll always be on team void. In the post-place timelapse gif I find it to be most interesting contribution.
That isn't Chinese propaganda. It's implying people are "fleeing" Australian currency holdings because Australia's ties to China are too strong. The implication is that China had excessive influence over the current Australian government, causing people to switch away from holding AUD to other currencies/assets. It's "red scare" propaganda designed to capitalise on distrust of China.
