Second highest post on Reddit politics right now talking about how Matt Gaetz was spouting CCP propaganda in congress.

Short version: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/M3pWEIG4UrE

Now Gaetz is a piece of shit, but he's not wrong about this. Of course the US funded and is funding Azov.

American racism against China makes them immediately discredit this true reporting. Does no one have any recollection of anything like this: https://thehill.com/policy/defense/380483-congress-bans-arms-to-controversial-ukrainian-militia-linked-to-neo-nazis/ It's all well documented. I guess Gaetz could have picked a different source if he wanted to land some epic point against Biden or whatever, but this is such a blatant example of how racists can be led around by the nose. Anything the enemy says can be immediately discredited.

Lately it feels like we're just waiting around for :posadist-nuke:

        Voice of America is Chinese propaganda now. I was being hyperbolic when I said radio free but it’s exactly that
