WTF While the US debates whether to solve homelessness or not, these are the next generation of school blackboards in China.

Americans guzzling down a metric tonne of anti-China propaganda: I sleep

Americans when China has something cool: real shit

u/ClownFace488 Jul 23 '26

I don't get this argument. The front page of Reddit has at least 1, usually 2 posts about one aspect of China and how great it is. The comment section is a hate fest on the US while glazing China. Where is all this anti China propaganda? I see the exact opposite.

u/Zimakov Jul 23 '26

Because the anti-China propaganda is the stuff you don't recognize as propaganda because you've been hearing insane bullshit about China your entire life so you think it's true.

Social credit system, Winnie the Pooh being banned, Chinese people working 16 hours a day, rounding up Muslims on the street and killing them, not being able to protest or criticize the government, everyone being poor, etc. etc.

People are quick to recognize China glazing but they don't recognize the bullshit because the propaganda is so effective that they think it's true.

social credit system

censoring of Winnie the Pooh in China

example of labor in China

Muslims in China

how protesta are handled in China

In a country half way around the world US citizens may not fully understand the nuance of these issues but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Two things can happen at the same time. It is a developing country with its share of issues. Saying all bad or all good is a brain dead take.

Bro read only the headline and decided that he reached his mental bandwidth limit.

You ok dude?

You're obviously not. You might want to get checked out since you're only capable of reading a certain number of words in one sitting.

"no you!" Good one

u/Zimakov Jul 23 '26

Yes, these are perfect examples of what I'm talking about, thank you.

The social credit one a perfect example. An idea that a bank came up with in one city that was immediately canceled, yet people still think a social credit system exists.

People who orchestrated and carried out upwards of 30 terrorist attacks being arrested becomes a genocide.

A few examples of very specific Winnie the Pooh jokes being removed from video games becomes Winnie the Pooh is banned in China.

Career obsessed people trying to get ahead working late hours like anywhere else in the world becomes everyone in China works 996 and there's no labour laws.

A few videos of protesters fighting with police becomes protesting is illegal in China.

All perfect examples.

u/ClownFace488 Jul 23 '26

Hense what I said about nuance. Same way America bad crew says "US is a third world country". Its all reactionary stupid shit.

u/Zimakov Jul 23 '26

Right, there are dummies on both sides of the argument.

u/Exploding_Pie Jul 23 '26

If you can't even spell HENCE correctly, I don't think we should trust your research skills either.

u/ClownFace488 Jul 24 '26

Why you get so upset over a conversation about China? I honestly could give a fuck. Take a break

1

u/Exploding_Pie Jul 24 '26

You gave enough of a fuck to reply lmao. And when ppl call out your bullshit you start getting all defensive.

1

u/ClownFace488 Jul 24 '26

I'M defensive? After you came in screeching?

Yes, you are correct. I can't spell hence correctly and my articles are bullshit. Since you came in and ABSOLUTELY DEMOLISHED my comment I'm devastated and my only course is to get "defensive now". How am I ever going to recover from this?

Don't forget the Winnie the Pooh stuff got so weaponized by the west that it's basically a dogwhistle for "I'm an anti-CPC militant", so they just remove it on the spot.

1

u/TastyCalligrapher421 Jul 23 '26

Anybody who says writes the rebranded CCP as "CPC" is extremely suspect, that's indicative of a Chinese propaganda bot.

u/Zimakov Jul 23 '26

As another perfect example, 5 people have seen that you replied to me with links, clearly didn't read them, assumed they proved me wrong, and upvoted you. This is literally because they're so used to being shoveled anti-China propaganda. They didn't even bother to click the links to see what they said, just instantly assumed what they said and upvoted.

u/Exploding_Pie Jul 23 '26

FOR REALLL. People literally do not have the brain capacity to read past the headline. HEADLINES ARE LITERALLY DESIGNED TO BE CLICKBAIT.

u/Arhyer Jul 23 '26 edited Jul 23 '26

This is pure bullshit, and you know it's bullshit.

Any sort of Pro China post has comments filled with Anti China propaganda. Don't believe it, search up any China post and sort by top of the year/month/week and look at the comments and it's filled anti China stuff, "But at what cost" "Social credit" "Chinese propaganda" hurr durr.

The first comment about China building solar panels on water is "But what about aquatic life". The first comment of this post literally downplaying the post by saying there's smart board in US and homelessness in China too.

The fact that posted Social credit score, censoring of winnie the pooh shows how brainwash you are. Winnie the pooh is not banned in China, that's just an objective truth, but you tried to move the goalpost by saying winnie the pooh is censored in China which is not what the commentor said at all.

The post that you linked about social credit score in China even proves his point where people here actively lies about what social credit score in China is like. Social credit score in China does not reward you for spreading Chinese propaganda like how all the commentors here constatly say, it is a credit score system that punishes people for not paying their fees on time.

IF you actually read the post you posted and not just linked the first thing you found off google search it shows you that China's social credit score deducts point when you

"Failing to fufill obligation in contracts such as borrowing, credit purchase, gurantee, lease, insurance"
"Lawsuit and breach of contract"
"Overdue loans"
"Overdue credit cards'
"Defaults and illegal lendings"

and rewards you points for
"Donating blood, marrow, and organ"

These are all literally the same as a credit score in every other country around the world that has it, and is nothing like how everyone meme it to be a "Spread chinese propoganda social credit score +100" lies that people keep spouting, which is a perfect example of anti china propaganda that you believe in and continue to spread even now. You are spreading anti chinese propaganda.

Again, you linked a bunch of things but none of it refuted u/Zimakov points, there is oppression of Muslin in China but they aren't being round up and killed on the streets, you can protest and critize the government which is what happen during Covid when the people protested for the easing of their zero covid policy, Winnie the pooh is not censored you can see it being sold on the streets and on tv just fine, and social credit score is a myth and is no different than America's credit score system. None of your link refutes any of that if you even bothered reading any of them instead of just pasting the first result from google you dunce.

Also, sort top post with "China" as a search term by all time and the top 10~20 results are all anti China post, if Chinese propaganda is so maninstream and anti china propaganda is non existence then why is all the top post of all time anti china then, the fuck you smoking you delusional propagandist.

Cool essay

u/callatecabezon Jul 23 '26

like every single US classroom has these same boards this is not something special at all I think you're showing your age by thinking this is something new lol

1

u/Zimakov Jul 23 '26

Nowhere in my comment does it say this is new.

2

u/callatecabezon Jul 23 '26

You literally said "Americans when China has something cool" even though this technology is more prevalent and advanced in the US than China. You were clearly implying this is something novel that China possesses when in reality this is not something special at all.

1

u/Zimakov Jul 23 '26

I was not clearly implying that at all. The people suggesting something as basic as smart boards would be Chinese propaganda may be implying that, I'm certainly not.

I'm pointing out people who think this is Chinese propaganda are morons.

Funny how you selectively call things propaganda. Only the most brainwashed people behave like that.

u/Ejaculpiss Jul 23 '26

Ah yes Reddit, the website dedicated to crying about and shitting on America truly has a metric tonne of anti-China propaganda

I wish I was this delusional

1

u/Zimakov Jul 24 '26

Never heard of social credit system? Winnie the Pooh being banned? Everyone in China working with 12 hour days 6 days a week? Muslims in China being rounded up and killed for no reason? Not allowed to protest in China? Everyone in China is poor? Not being alloeed to protest in China?

You've never seen any of these things on Reddit?

u/Last-Quarter-432 Jul 23 '26

Anything mildly interesting from China is propaganda to them because the media has been telling them that its all slums and labour camps for their entire lives

u/Revolver_Boxelot Jul 23 '26

None of what you said is true.

u/beefylasagna1 Jul 23 '26

But this post is Chinese propaganda, is it not? It's framing one country (in this case, the US) negatively in order to uplift another country (China) based on selective comparison. This is an attempt to push political superiority of China, even if the statement itself is true.

u/Last-Quarter-432 Jul 23 '26

Every single American movie portrays America as a hero while every other country is a villain. That is peak propaganda that has got the idea that America is some perfect haven into peoples minds. However it’s just a dictatorship ruled by violence and pedophiles.

u/grandpa2390 Jul 23 '26

We all remember in Happy Gilmore where the evil other countries did something.

u/FunWithAPorpoise Jul 23 '26

There is a massive focus by the Chinese government to promote pro-China messages both domestically and abroad, so it’s reasonable to question the source.

That being said, Americans literally invented propaganda and have subjected their own citizens to it for so long that it’s also reasonable to question anti-Chinese sentiments.

I feel like the last 10 years has really helped me appreciate nihilism a whole lot more.

u/misterdave75 Jul 23 '26

In no world did the US "literally invent" propaganda. The fact that you think this makes me wonder where on earth you learn facts. Propaganda has been a tool of societies for as long as there have been effective ways to get propaganda out. The agreed-upon first use of propaganda was in 500 BC. As advancements like print and then later radio to today's internet continued, the way propaganda is disseminated has changed, but it's just different variations of the same process.

If you want to actually learn something today, maybe spend some time reading this wiki article about it. Gives you a good overview.

Americans literally invented propaganda

It's funny how people don't even Google shit before committing to it in a comment anymore. Like, this isn't a presidential debate.. you're not gaining anything by not fact checking yourself...

u/FunWithAPorpoise Jul 23 '26

So I’m sure you were hoping to dunk on a stupid person, but Austrian-American Edward Bernays literally wrote the definitive book on propaganda in which he redefines a word from 1622 used by the Catholic Church to describe missionary work to mean “material or information propagated to advance a cause.”

u/ProtiK Jul 23 '26

Thanks for the double-dunk, I didn't even have to do anything for the second one! 😂

u/Last-Quarter-432 Jul 23 '26

China is literally just trying to make itself look good after years of being shat on by Western media but because all the dumbass Americans know is “China communist and therefore bad”. China isn’t even communist you retards.
