I've had quite a few people say I've been brainwashed by Chinese or soviet propaganda, a thing I do not encounter often, and then slowly explain the most bog standard white Australian nationalist narrative to me. I wish I was better at confrontational social situations
I mean, I've checked out a few English language Chinese news programs out of curiosity. Not really anything vitriolic I've seen, if anything they all seem a bit more chill and relaxed and maybe even a bit boring. It's obvious that some of it is propaganda but they don't really bother to hide it behind this facade of "NO SPIN" and "TOTALLY RELIABLE" or controlled oppositional pushback that American corporate news (aka propaganda) feels the need to project.
