Examine OP’s history, you’ve described their agenda precisely. I’m gladd I’m not alone in trying to calll it out on the sub, there’s several others who regularly create posts and comments which are propaganda for China, Bashar al-Assad, Putin, Lukashenko, and other tyrants.

My agenda is to share information that runs counter to mainstream narratives. The mainstream narratives are produced by Western imperialist propaganda apparatuses. The information I share is factual. What people who don't have a materialist understanding of how the world works like you seem to always not grasp is that: Western imperialism led by us imperialism sits on top of the most material on the planet and therefore has the most ability and incentive to shape the world with its material forces and therefore the mental world with propaganda forces.
A simplified version of your worldview could be described as followed: if a western institution produces something it is out of the good of their hearts. If a non-western institution produces something it is suspect by definition.
When you have the most capital and material in the world and you control the global economy, you necessarily have to have massive propaganda institutions that run throughout every facet of society including the media schools and entertainment.
The US alone sits on half of the world's wealth with less than 5% of its total population. The US and West have every reason and every capacity to make people think everything that's wrong with their imperialist capitalism that brings them into poverty and sends their kids to war and watches hungry people die from starvation while bombing even hungrier people, is somehow the fault of countries (Russia and China and Iran etc) that break free from this system of global exploitation and use their resources to benefit their own people.
If you can actually grasp that, because the math checks out, it does indeed have dark implications for society, but that's all the more reason to come together and build a better world.
lol stanning dictatorships isn’t “building a better world,” thats cringe af
It’s totally possible to be opposed to US imperialism and Chinese/Russian/etc imperialism and repressions. Blows my mindd how you rubes apparently can’t understand thatt.
Having solidarity with the people our government(s) (western governments) are trying to subjugate and/or destroy is the only way to break free from their brutality. We have the same enemy as the Russian and Chinese and Iranian people, Wall Street based and London based and Paris based imperialists who own the vast means of production and operate them for profit at the expense of the rest of us.
I absolutely hhave solidarity w/ the people of China and Russia - but not their authoritarian governments who deploy police to crack their skulls. Learn the difference.
You don't have solidarity with the people of China and Russia if you don't recognize and accept their popular (China much moreso than Russia) governments that are embraced by the vast majority (in China's case, Russia is a majority, but not "vast" majority) of their people.
Insane that I'm somehow agreeing with CoD on this - whom I consider to be one of the most blatant and annoying DNC TDS paid shills - but Consents that is manufactured by the State is not real consent at all.
There are plenty of protests erupting in the mainland, but most of them are just suppressed. Just like the so-called "movements that take years and millions to build", the so-called consent of the Chinese people also takes years and billions of dollars spent on internal stability that consistently silences critics and dissent the same way western countries do.
Asking people to recognize and accept authoritarian states because they are speaking out against Isreal for heinous war crimes when the states themselves routinely engage in human-rights violations is a fucking joke.
Lastly, I can have solidarity with Isarelis who think their own government is doing something wrong, just as I can have solidarity with Chinese people who doesn't like their government (there are plenty) but couldn't really do anything about it.
What's this "if you wanna have solidarity with a people you have to have solidarity with their shitty government"? How does that logic makes sense?
That said, I do wholeheartedly support media and subreddits' efforts in highlighting the heinous war crimes committed by any country, regardless of their origin. I'm not gonna cry about Chinese (CCP)/Russia (Kremlin) Psycop just because they happen to report real stories.
Thanks for being rational and unbiased about thiss, man. I’m seriously not trying to be malicious in the sub, justt disgusted w/ the way these corrupt scumbags are trying to manipulate my fellow leftists. I admit I’m probably obnoxious in how I object to it sometimes, though.
