And when people found out that they had been lied to, do you honestly think they will still swallow more disinformation or misinformation generated from a particular source. I speak not of the USA citizens that are already brain-dead and will continue to swallow the poison pill, just like the junkies lying on the streets of Los Angeles. They cannot be cured.
It does not take much to demolish state sponsored propaganda built up over decades with expensive investments to boot. Sometimes, it just takes a little app like Rednote to overturn the massive propaganda built up over decades. How is the propaganda machine going to deal with it? Banning Tik Tok or Rednote is just going to send a clear message that the truth really hurts, and the USA cannot handle the truth. That makes those who are awake to seek other sources of information that could be more detrimental. Rednote just exposed the lies pertaining to living conditions and cost of living between USA and China more or less. Other apps may expose more harmful political issues.

Ironic how easily the decades of misinformation and disinformation by the USA propaganda machine had been taken down by Rednote and China opening up to foreign visitors using visa-free travel. It was just a demonization bubble that has now been pricked. The USA lost its credibility, not that is still has any credibility to talk about.
ReplyDeleteIt was all done cheaply and beneficially as well for China, having not needing to pay a cent to those foreign vloggers doing the countering for China while earning all the foreign exchange spending by foreign visitors to China.
On the other side of the coin, the USA is now avoided by foreign travelers particularly from Canada and Asians, China in particular. Why visit a country when you are not welcomed? And where everything is going to be expensive in the light of all those tariffs erected by Trump. It would be stupidity to do so. And now, the USA businesses catering to foreign travelers are crying and folding.
Make America Great Again was done the wrong way. But never tell your enemy when it is making a big mistake.
