They've been shielded from even critical support of China and other AES for so long they literally, not figuratively, literally cannot process that people exist that have beliefs that aren't Reddit Approved. They immediately assume it's bots or wumao. Human beings can't possibly hold these beliefs, so they must be Oriental hordes or actual robots.

Chinese version of SorosBucks. Supposedly the evil sea sea pea pays people rmb¥.50元 yuan per internet comment to support them.

In seriousness, in Chinese currency, there is fen (1分), 10 fen is a mao (1毛) and 10 mao is 1 yuan (1元)

In some liberal fever dream, people were paid 5 mao per post to defend the CPC on the internet. Which doesn't really make a lot of sense since they also believe mentioning Tiananmen Square will get you SWATed. So dissent is never posted online, but when it is there's a ready team of professional posters defending China. Which even the west admits is a lie, even the Wikipedia article notes "In contrast to common assumptions, the 50 Cent Party consists mostly of paid bureaucrats who respond to government directives and rarely defend their government from criticism or engage in direct arguments because "... the goal of this massive secretive operation is instead to distract the public and change the subject.""

This has spread to any defense or China on a western platform being done by highly bilingual Chinese state employees for 50 cents a post.

Ah, so it's basically the right wing conspiracy theories of paid protestors, which seems to show up everywhere.

I was just thinking about that! Next time my response is gonna be:

Sorry, but I actually can't get paid for my China posts because of a noncompete clause I signed when George Soros hired me as a crisis actor - I'm not allowed to be a paid actor in any conspiracy theory until it expires so I'm just defending China pro bono to keep my posting skills sharp so I can get a job as a wumao once the clause expires.

I saw Curtis Jackson in Tiananmen Square yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him to join the 50 Cent Party or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face.
