    On another note, if you say "Yeah the Shen Yun thing is anti-Chinese government propaganda" or something, nobody is gonna give a fuck, but if you ever talk to a lib about it, you can hammer on the anti-environmentalist and homophobic themes that are in the performance which would be more effective

      Every single year I tell my coworkers the ballet is weird and they shouldn't see it. Every year they go anyway and come back with tales of like the actors on stage saying homosexuality is a disease and going to the doctor makes you evil. One year they did a production where there were dancers in pre-revolutionary China dancing in a field and Marx's head came out of the sky and everything turned red and then everyone died.

      Somehow it keeps going and somehow most people are unaware it's run by a weird cult doing anti-communist propaganda.

      There’s an MSNBC article taking them down too. Don’t forget they’re the biggest spreaders of pre-Covid anti-vax propaganda and hate interracial couples. Lots of ways to tame the libs with their own issues

      They also have ties to pro trump stuff. That hits them right in their feelers
