China bad. US bad. Russia bad.

All three can be true at the same time. (And they are)

Bold of you to assume I am American, did you not check the instance I am from ?

Yes, there are many lies about China, but don't get stuck in second opinion syndrome. China is both worse and better than you know.

The fact the government lies about China, while China is still bad behind the scenes, can both be true. During the cold war, both sides accused the other of being evil, and both were right.

Don't let anyone who puts a "communist" sticker on their own forehead fool you into supporting them.

It is nice to see the western propaganda machine start to fail. I never thought I'd see the general public recognize Israel is a genocidal settler apartheid state until the last couple years, even though the propaganda machine has been working overtime for it. Hopefully other areas in propaganda start to crumble as well.

Born to early to explore the cosmos, too late to explore the world, but just in time to see the fall of the US empire propaganda machine 😁
