Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse. We need to discuss ways to combat this. One group- memes or something is wholly controlled by Chinese state actors. What do you think?

        The whole point is that there is no comparison necessary. It’s nothing but a deflection.

            No it is not. If that’s the case, nothing matters except the worst of the worst. Everything can be excused by “yeah but that other guy is worse so it’s okay”. It’s preposterous.

                it’s not china holding the world hostage

                I’m not going to play this game with you. The US being shit doesn’t excuse China from being shit. Or vise versa. Simple as.

                    equating them is dishonest

                    Criticizing one of them on it’s individual merits while avoiding comparisons is very obviously not the same thing as equating both of them.

                    and very deflective.

                    LOOOOOLOLOL you can’t be serious.
