I wish my hospital bills used the same paper as their propaganda so i could stare lovingly at the work my freedom dollars were doing on my way to debtors prison

Thank god they are spending 1.6 billion on this instead of building houses for the homeless. I was worried for a moment that I only dreamed that I existed in a Fascist hellscape.

It's clear that the propaganda machine works wonders on westerners that are eager and salivating to consume anti-china propaganda.

I don't think it will be anywhere near as effective abroad, especially outside of the "international community" international-community-1.

My sister repeated the "gutter oil" racist bullshit the other day. I'm not surprised but it's like everyone is a fascist these days when it comes to China what-the-hell

Yeah that's wild.

I expect it to get worse too as it becomes increasingly undeniable that China has surpassed the US
