I’m Chinese on fediverse. Guess I’m propaganda now.
I'm sorry to say that lemmy is not popular enough to be on CPC's radar.
The CPC's propaganda budget is mostly focused on what Chinese people would read if they get over the great firewall (mainly YouTube and Twitter).
Second to that is the general "feel good" stories, like scenery, food, or panda (recently high-speed trains), aiming at the mainstream Western public. You may see those on lemmy, but it's very unlikely that the state propagandists are the ones posting them here.
One group- memes or something is wholly controlled by Chinese state actors.
As one of the moderators of !memes@lemmy.ml i encourage OP to look at the sort of posts i make and tell me - do you really think i'm a "Chinese state actor"?
Do you think all these posts i make in, eg, !hoch@lemmy.ml and !goodnews@lemmy.ml and !badnews@lemmy.ml and !eleven@lemmy.ml... these are all part of a carefully-crafted cover, and I'm actually being paid by China to delete totally-not-racist posts depicting their president as a yellow cartoon bear?
And for this service, to maintain my cover, they also pay me to create memes like this and this and this and this and this and this (and defending that one against less informed nerds) and this and this and this (a small sample of my OC here)?
And do you think China paid for this understandable explanation of asymmetric cryptography using high-school level math, because someone asked, deep in a thread about a service which I'd also already debunked the snake-oil privacy claims of?
Really?

Of course it is. Its what the block button was made for.
Really? I thought it was just the opposite.
Kind of weird how you're posting this from .ml, though; one of the most propagandized instances in existence.
They are likely seeing all this propaganda they are talking about while browsing local.
How do you define "Chinese propaganda" and why do you think CCP even cares about a place as small as Lemmy?
As a side observer, I just see some people being more loyal to China and others to the US. This does happen on a decentralized platform where you can't shut down the other side of the discussion.
Overall, Lemmy remains America-centric and America-dominated on all fronts, so if there's any bias, it's here.
