      Yea maybe we'll have another round of everybody agreeing China is lying about their military capabilities again.

      Unrelated, anybody seen my F-35 there's a light sprinkle in the forecast so I gotta get it covered up.

      I'm not sure these people who believe this stuff are in positions of power though. I would imagine the US ruling class are more acutely aware of what is really going on.

      On the other hand, some of their actions only make sense if they believe their own bullshit, so I really have no idea.

          Or look the current issue of Prigozhin death. Even many people here and on Hexbear have no doubts FSB offed him, but writing this on some obscure messageboard is one thing and state officials saying it ex officio is another so Pentagon had to come in and remind Usians, inluding their officials, it's nothing confirmed yet. Btw i got no answer but downvotes on lemmy when i asked is Pentagon putlerbot rooskie propaganda now lmao.

        Being given access to accurate intel is no guarantee that they actually leverage it to form their own views.

        There are anecdotes of US officials using mainstream media to spoonfeed them their positions on issues as they can't be assed to do anything resembling actual work.

        Pretty funny that all the self-hating liberals they funded ended up tricking their handlers themselves lol.

        In their fanatic bid to become honorary aryans they instead became the strategic fool you agency. 🐶

    the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry

      Conditions in America are currently worse than the Great Depression by pretty much every metric related to working people. And the media is blatantly pretending it's not happening.

      It's easier to believe in something you want to happen. The "hope people will be ok" part is just so no one realizes they are a piece of shit.

    This is actually just enrichment for them. Kind of like a cat knows that they won't catch a laser pointer if they chase it, they just want to exercise their natural hunting instinct.

      The cat actually doesn't know and if that's the only form of enrichment they can get incredibly stressed out because they are never able to catch anything, so people should give their cats something real to chase after using a laser pointer.

        Really? That's sad, my kitty loves the laser pointer. I need to get her one of those string toys to play with after now.

          I'm not sure how true that is.

          Cats don't literally think they're hunting when you play with them, since cats don't pur when they're hunting.

          I've two cats, the more sociable cat that can play with people/animals without hurting them shows excitement as soon as I pick up the laser pen.

          The one that can only play with toys ignores the laser pen.

          They both understand they're not going to catch anything, and the one that only enjoys catching things doesn't engage.
