I will never understand why anglos think they are more susceptible to Chinese or Russian propaganda than they are to American and British propaganda. American propaganda spans then entire globe. They run entire media companies for the USG. American and British propaganda analysts have demonstrated just how powerful Anglo propaganda machines are.

Chinese propaganda, by comparison, can only be a very recent phenomenon because 70 years ago they were a total agrarian society without any technology while the US was the most technologically advanced society on the planet.

It doesn’t take much to understand that when the CIA funds a group like The Epoch Times and the Victims of Communism that they can’t be trusted with telling the truth. But they don’t even TRY. All you have to do is look into their claims and they fall completely apart. The original authors of the book of the victims of communism have denounced their own writing as fabrication and deliberately misleading. They counted KIA Nazi soldiers as victims of communism FFS!!

No, these are not equal sides. No these are not abstractions that have equal valence. They are distinct and distinguishable historical processes. You can look at them individually, you can compare them. You will not find an equivalent of Voice of America or Radio Free Asia. You will not find an unbroken history dating back to before the Opium Wars of oligarchic manipulation of the media for the purpose of going to war and plundering. You will not find another empire that dominated 80% of the world’s population.

You imagine me some empty headed brainwashed robot but you fail to understand that I was raised on the same TV shows, video games, movies, books, and rhetoric that you were. I was taught the same false history you were and I believed it like you do. I am aware of the information you have access to and the perspective you had because I personally used to have it.

I have empathy for your position. You have none for mine.
