      This guy probably said "here's 100 bucks, just put these shirts on so I can take some pics of you" to some random tourists for propaganda / clout / whatever reason. They're probably just confused and ready to get on with their trip with some extra spending cash.

    who the fuck is this guy?

    Brendan Kavanagh (born October 1967), also known as "Dr K" due to his PhD in English, is a British pianist and piano teacher of Irish descent. He specializes in playing and promoting the boogie-woogie genre, almost exclusively improvised, often combined with classical, jazz, blues, rock & roll, and traditional Irish music themes. He regularly performs in open venues on public pianos, sometimes in duet formats with musically inclined passers-by, friends or family.

    so, basically street performer with a youtube channel who films people watching him play music. aka a neverwas dreaming himself on the cusp of discovery. his wiki page has a description of the incident where he became a prestige class douche complete with media appearances on tabloid media. check out his wiki photo...

    I'm honestly curious about how these people (anti-CPC Chinese nationals) come to exist. I doubt they're lifelong undercover CIA. I doubt they're stumbling on CIA or at least pro-western liberal democracy type propaganda online or elsewhere. Is it just resentment from the pre-revolution days? Newer resentments from changes after Mao died? It's just weird. I know the lib response would be "of course they hate their oppressive authoritarian..." blah blah. I'm sure some policies do rub some people the wrong way. Maybe drive deep resentments. But turning fully to the US for like the hope of what? Doing a grifter podcast like "How I escaped Chinese Fascism!"? I just don't get it. Unless it's mostly the old resentments explanation which I still don't get but I understand at least. Considering Miami is full of those exact types.

      there seem to be people who just do not enjoy socialism or anything close to it and are instead blinded by the idea that they could have MORE from american/western propaganda. having the state provide a living, cheap housing, a stable job, etc to them is not enough when the "american dream" promotes the concept that if you work hard here, you can have even more than others. and some people buy that. i know a lot of former soviet citizens who bought this and became anti-socialists because why have the soviet state provide the necessities for their lifestyle if they can get rich in america? of course, it never happens, and many of these anti-socialists who leave end up really struggling financially in the west because, surprise, capitalism was never about giving everyone an opportunity to become rich.

      Most of the loud spoken anti CPC Chinese are either from ROC or Hong Kong that have drank too much of western propaganda. I guess they could also be Falun Gong members

      Given the racism of Anglos we should question whether the people in the photo have Chinese backgrounds at all.

      Buy if they are, there's plenty of ways for people to get brainworms. A common one is Falun Gong.

      Usually social media propaganda they see when using a VPN and interacting with foreign libs.
