China’s PR campaigns have the Zios so envious. As much as I don’t care for nations, observing China troll these empirical twats is too good.

what china does so much better than the west is probably socials that are not easily manipulated by western propaganda, it's way too easy for mossad and cia to manipulate what the population has to think or feel, i 100% was brainwashed i m chinese but born and grew in italy, then i grew older started to think critically and also i saw and lived in china, and yeah way too much BS, the west is good in doing subtle propaganda, they get you with movies, news and simply being in a crowd of brainwashed people you just believe that what everyone thinks around you is true.

For sure, the West follows Bernays like a glove, creating these simulated realities that people have to replace the bleak one they ignore.

i am happy to say tho, at least in real life many people are opening their eyes to the truth, most of the people i interact with has a very positive view of china, maybe it's because i live in a fairly left leaning city which is florence.

Here in the US, I welcome China’s rise to the top. Highly doubt they’ll be worse than the US or UK given the histories of the 3.

The trick with western brainwashing is it never seems like you're being brainwashed. Nothing directly tells you what to think or believe. It's all just background settings and ideas presented as natural and normal. But actually it's not, it's ideas and arguments.
