U.S. President Joe Biden said on Wednesday he had not changed his view that Chinese President Xi Jinping was effectively a dictator, a comment likely to land with a thud in Beijing after the two leaders held straightforward summit talks.
Early reports are saying that Biden said under his breath " A dictator says what?"
I think people presume that too often. "If it bleeds it leads" on its own would lead to Western media actually detailing American crimes or Israeli crimes against Palestinians. People give Western propagandists way too little credit for deliberately creating the narratives they do and I don't know who is proliferating this idea that they're just sleepwalking into these narratives that serve Western ruling class interests. I would assume it's all entirely coordinated and intentional until proven otherwise, especially given that we already know about how people in the CIA directly talk with their journalists to run certain stories in international media outlets, and we know journalists talk to people in the govt because they say so in their articles. I just wonder more about who is talking to who or what the cues are for this kind of thing.
