Mmm i feel so harassed
Obviously a lot of state actors are involved in forms of information warfare including China and they certainly have the resources to be very effective in that area.
You follow the money and a lot of the time it is going to end up the same place as a disproportionate amount of the world's capital which is in the USA and the west in general. The amount of damage the fossil fuel industry has done to the world is immeasurable and makes China insignificant by comparison. They funded anyone who would take their side and supported many forms of extremism in the process, all to prolong the value of their investments at the cost of leaving a horrendous legacy for future generations.
I am concerned about China's massive military expansion and their impact on regional stability, but dealing with that is on a whole different level of concern to some of the other influences on our media and politics.
Obligatory fuck the CCP, but also they aren't going anywhere unless the Chinese population fights for democracy and we aren't setting a great example for them while we refuse to participate in and improve the democracy we have.
So CNN finally discovered Hexbear?
