The conversations are amazing

A meme captioned "Rednote right now:" followed by an image of an American man saying that everything they were told about China is a lie, and a Chinese woman saying that everything they were told about the US is true.

Imagine allowing citizens to be so free that they can go to your biggest rival's social media to read narratives favouring them, get influenced by rival propaganda, and then shit you on your percieved weak points.

    It’s never too late to discard your patriotism to a state that doesn’t give a fuck about you. You don’t owe it your allegiance, be it Burgerland or India or whichever shitty capitalist state.

    Patritoism?
    I suppose it is easy to be patriotic to a state which hides even publicly known events from its plebs.

    Try to get opinion of the Chinese on RedNote about Uyguirs and Teinman Square. I'll wait.

    Tiananmen square is one of the most popular places in China, it'd be like saying Times square in new york city. You're referring to what they call the june 4th incident, and you can absolutely talk about it on chinese social media.

    What’s a “secret” are not those events, but the garbage that propagandized Westerners believe about those events.

    So you’re right, the “genocide” is a “secret,” and the “massacre” is a “secret.”

    Thanks for sharing.
    This paints "massacre" as retaliation against CIA sponsered armed factions. Looks very much like what happened in Bangladesh recently, but unlike China CIA succeeded in Bangladesh.

    Perceived weak points, huh? So the brutal genocide of Gaza is just a little whoopsie that we should.move past? Fuck no. This isn't weakness or a mistake, this is America pulling off the mask, and anyone making excuses for it this late in the game is close enough to a fascist as makes no difference.
