1 year agoIs this even true though? I assume the “imperial core peers” you are referring to are Europeans, and if so, I would categorically reject the idea that they are “orders of magnitude” less brainwashed. What is your reasoning behind this statement? Because to me, the way europeans talk about muslim immigrants, or the roma, or the legacy of the soviet union, echoes all the same brainrot that seems to inflict the burgerlanders.
Let me put the tinfoil hat on for a second and say, I have noticed this as well and I’m 99% sure its Black Propaganda (if im using that phrase correctly).
Someone else in the thread correctly points out that there are lots of uncritical “multipolarity enthusiasts” all over the internet, but personally I think that can only explain who is liking and sharing the videos. The real question at hand: who is making these posts in the first place?
The only satisfying answer ive come to is that its something resembling black propaganda. Although, instead of the idea being that the propaganda is abhorrent and turns the viewer away from being pro-China or pro-Traore with its ugly content, I think the idea is instead for the aforementioned enthusiastic multipolarity enjoyers to love the video, share it, and then get smacked down by an enlightened lib going “umm, thats actually fake”. We all understand that ideology is a bit like dominos; confidently sharing something that subsequently gets disproven doesnt just make you question that specific fact, it makes you question the ENTIRE ideological framework that led you to believe in that thing in the first place. The goal is to make these people go “Huh maybe the libs are right and everything good about china is a lie and they are an authoritarian hellhole”. That fake China airdrop video was literally everywhere, even Gustavo Petro (the fucking president of columbia) was reposting it uncritically on his twitter. His post is a good example of the phenomenon im talking about. He attached a commentary to it that said something like (some countries help (China) other countries create misery (US/Israel)). This is a powerful message, one that should be a thorn in the side for libs and zionists, and yet the entire thing is disarmed because the comments can just go “Umm, actually, that videos fake” and ignore the message entirely. Its not like we need to invent examples of China being more helpful to Gaza than the fucking USA, who are the perpetrators of the genocide in the first place. Any actual comrade would never dream of mislabeling a video of previous US aid, because the Chinese DO give aid (on the ground), so you could just find an article talking about that and use it as your evidence. The only person who has a vested interest in lying about this is someone who wants to HARM the reputation of the Chinese with respect to Gaza, not help it. Thats my two cents.
