Is this article supposed to be a joke?
No, I’m confused after reading such a terrible piece and wanted to make sure
It’s mostly what the author left out like The Great Leap Forward orchestrated by Mao in the 60s that killed over 45 million people and now Xi’s goal to claim the independent nation of Taiwan through military force, both sound really peaceful. And the fact China is currently committing genocide against the Uyghurs which can be proven with unbiased news reporting and videos, not propaganda. Also the author’s use of “special military operation” instead of Russia’s Invasion on Ukraine is sad. There’s a lot more but those stuck out.
Now the US had/has its problems but saying China is leading the world in global peace is in fact, a joke. I didn’t know this was a communist instance and I’ll be sure to keep this shit off my feed.
"Now the US has its problems but [western propaganda]", it's always the same (or at least very similar)
It always is. And they always seem to think that it is "unbiased" to mention unrelated historical events in every single article about China, but if every article on the US mentioned all their brutal massacres, oppression and war crimes, these people would lose their shit.
I doubt anyone will be able to convince you not to be uncritically anticommunist, but for anyone else reading this, not even the government on Taiwan considers Taiwan a country, and neither does any other nation. See this comment for more details.
Saying "the US had/has its problems" is the understatement of the century. It's a genocidal settler colony that has caused hundreds of millions of deaths abroad in the post-WW2 era through direct invasions, coups, crippling debt traps and various other means. Read William Blum's "Killing Hope".
I agree, I'm sick of people leaving stuff out of articles like this.
Like when the Wall Street Journal recently did an article on the US debt, I was outraged. How could they talk about that without also mentioning the brutal slaughter of native Americans, or the decades of suppression of African Americans, not to mention the slavery before that! And they don't even mention the US's brutal war crimes in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan either.
Such an awful, unbiased news source, whenever they talk about America they never mention every single horrible thing the US ever did!
