      For the past week the people of China and the United States, as well as other countries have been comparing notes. Debunking propaganda on both sides. Realizing that much of what we’ve all been told for years/decades, has been lies.

          For starters, that the Uyghur genocide is yet another piece of atrocity propaganda from the US. We know what a genocide looks like and how it’s impossible to hide in the modern world, as Gaza showed.

          Blurry satellite pictures of buildings and a German fascist swearing it for ten pages (financed by Raytheon and Lockheed-Martin) isn’t proof.

              Because there are some functional governments in the world that don’t allow US misinformation to spread without challenge.

              They also suppress Falun Gong, are you telling me that’s in and of itself proof that their cultist shit is one hundred percent true? If so tell me so I can laugh my ass off

                So according to you it’s the job of a functional government to select which topics are missinformation and can be seen or not by it’s citizens?

                  Whose job would it be, corporations? Do you think the public was well served by anti-masker, anti-vax conspiracies being allowed to run rampant? Has the US benefitted from QAnon and Pizzagate being completely unopposed and sometimes boosted by social media?

                    How about no censorship? And you get to use your brain to decide. I like to live in a country where the government doesn’t preselect which topics I have access to but to each his own, you can go live in the CCP or North Korea then.
