it's true though. think about all the things that people "know" about China. Uyghur genocide, foxconn high suicide rates, tiananmen square massacre, tiktok controlled by the "ccp", hk riots, social credit, ghost cities, etc none of it is true.

As I said, the concept of social credit is real. It's just that it's not in China, it's in the US, it's created by banking overlords, and citizens have it in their phone banking apps telling them how worthy they are of receiving the impressive reward of a mortgage from their banking overlord daddies.

Such a good article, such bleak conclusions for westerners

I think Roderic makes a lot of good points and observations, but this thesis of his has shifted my perspective the most. Even though it is focused on the mechanism of propaganda, it elucidates a LOT of the western mindset and the failures of the western left. Really challenging but really eye-opening and sobering.
