The bizarre secret behind China's spy balloon

Earlier this year America's military defenses were put on notice against a Chinese balloon believed to be on an espionage mission. Gen. Mark Milley talks about what we've learned from an examination of the balloon's wreckage.

Nobody could have predicted this. I have my doubts even when they call it "spying equipment" or whatever considering Chinese claim it was a meteorological balloon, certainly no doubt they would try to paint those tools as such.

    Just do a search for "China balloon [nytimes, washington post, wsj, etc]" and go look at the feverishly stupid coverage from just February of this year. And aside from just the regular shitty media, think back to how furious the reactionaries were whipped into becoming by blaming Biden for just not shooting it down instantly over some country bumpkin's head, but instead allowing it to float off over the Atlantic before shooting it.
