    The fact the government lies about China, while China is still bad behind the scenes, can both be true.

    This is just vague-posting unless you actually link some credible china-bad studies that aren’t sourced from British or US state media.

      Something like a one-party political system with dear respected leader, concentration camps, surveillance, social rating system, GFW?

      Note how I don’t say anything about propaganda from every crack. That’s because western propaganda has successfully evolved in the conditions of outright censorship not being allowed. Like killing cockroaches in a building again and again you make them evolve for the poisons used in the past.

      If you are going to pick the “all this is not credible” line, then don’t bother. Also credible is a synonym for “believable”, and nobody can make you believe things you don’t want to believe.

        Can you name a single piece of anti-China propaganda from the West that you don’t accept unquestioningly?
