    And criticisms of the west focus on real shit we’re doing. Like Soviet propaganda was just, “look at what they’re doing, its bad”. Whereas our propaganda has to make shit up. Chinas criticisms of the west are far more likely to be real than ours of them

      Honestly most of the news that gets posted here is from western sources anyway, the evidence the west is bad is so strong even western media can’t really hide it. Obscuring it really relies on insisting other people are worse.
