There are a lot of communists on Lemmy, and communists tend to support socialist countries. Simple as that. Plus, in the current era where the US Empire is dying, China is presenting itself as a better trade partner for the global south, one focused more on multilateralism and not on imperialism.

Why are they trying to brute-force propaganda? At least be subtle, and bribe us next time.

What do you mean by "brute-forcing" propaganda? Agitprop is one of the main ways communists recruit new members.

Apparently "telling the truth" is now labeled "brute-forcing propaganda" lol

Communists asserting our stances and sharing memes? Straight to jail.

Ah yes, convincing argument: "China good, USA bad"

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 months ago

That's just a stance, the arguments are in the comments.

To the liberal brain pickled from a lifetime of soaking in American propaganda, the stating of simple and demonstrable fact in an online discussion = "brute forcing propaganda."

Also I hate to do a redditism, but fucking hell does that username check out.

lol would you prefer for us to lie and say all the countries of the world are horrible, cynicism is the only consistent ideology, and we're all doomed so nothing matters?
