It is somewhat organic though, like the US did seed a lot of the propaganda initially, but like most of the West's propaganda it's self-fuelling now. It used to be that people kept to within the lines of the propaganda, now people just invent whatever the fuck they want and the scarier it sounds, the more real it could possibly be - and if you push back, well, you're just a red fash tankie SeeSeePee shill

Like I've seen people just whip out the most asinine shit about China clear out of thin air, and not from terminally online users either. I know someone who's otherwise fully disconnected from politics and online discourse but truly believes that China is building back doors into consumer cleaning robots so that they can map out someone's house and, if they ever speak ill of China, break in and kidnap them to disappear them. He doesn't even mean like dissidents living here, he straight up thinks China will disappear random Canadians for speaking ill of Xi around their Roomba

The ad revenue is worthless compared to the facial recognition data it can generate. They've all got inward facing cameras, and most have outward facing ones. The company gets the absolute best marketing data they possibly can: demographic information, a face to match to other information, what products you looked for, how long you shopped around for a product, which products your ultimately bought

It's an immensely invasive system but incredibly lucrative for the company. Millions of data points for millions of shoppers nationwide to sell off

They should absolutely let the ban happen then. Influencers are modern day snake oil scammers, and infinitely more harmful, given how often they're scamming children

A just society wouldn't allow someone to become a multimillionaire off of promoting drop shipped garbage and other scams

Libs will praise this because at least they're given the opportunity to ask their government to provide documents, because if you asked this in China or Russia they would execute you, disappear you, then send you a document full of lies and propaganda before sending you to the gulag

Western sources refuse to report on the truth, and any non-western source is automatically dismissed as biased disinformation propaganda etc

Can't counter a narrative if no accepted sources ever differ

Boycott, Divest, Sanction. A call to action against companies that either work in Israel or otherwise materially support the Zionist government, which directly supports the genocide of Palestinians

Hi how're ya

This comment doesn't really make any sense, would you mind clarifying?

Their biased state propaganda station, our ethical unbiased national broadcaster

Me and the pals watching this "Roman slaveowner" with 105 IQ fail to maintain his crops during our yearly seccessio plebis

Open the Mega Buffoon pack there, you might find Pareidolia and suddenly the entire deck is face cards

Germans today should not still be punished for what their old government and what some of their ancestors did over 80 years ago?

And yet this post is likely directly in response to Russia, which is constantly being punished for the 1917 revolution and constantly being treated as one contiguous entity ever since

China should sell it to a shell company that's American in America but run by a Chinese company instead, and continue to play shell games every time they're forced to sell again

Just constantly waste the US government's time indefinitely over this

Plus it's always from arrogant as fuck Westoids who think they should be allowed to visit China and make snide comments about "West Taiwan", wear Free Hong Kong t-shirts in Tiananmen Square while asking their tour guide how many people died there. Then they invariably get in shit with the law there and complain about and how it's impossible to "criticize the government" there

Oh you mean when he was handed power by the actual sitting Chancellor at the time, Hindenburg, who was voted in as the compromise candidate instead of the NSDAP because the fucking SocDems massacred the leftists and said the only way to curb the rise of the NSDAP was to work with the center right? That 1933?

The first one is pretty fun, the second is a baffling inexplicable mess, and the third one is so incredibly libshit while also being incomprehensible to the point where I'm sad they cancelled the franchise because I need to see where they go after "Wizard Hitler No. 1 is defeated by the power of vooooting"

Libs will just Great Man theory it. Oh he got away with it because Russia + fascism + stacked courts + rigged judges + Russia and they'll never even stop to think once let alone twice

This had me curious enough to do the napkin math

A single water bomber has about 6,140kg of water/suppressant payload. A single heavy-lift cargo hexacopter drone has a payload capacity of 8.7kg

It would take 706 drones to exceed one water bomber, but they would naturally be far more spread out and thus far less effective. There is at least 4 water bombers I've seen deployed to California, so at 2,800+ drones, it would be one of the single largest drone performances ever and probably about as effective as pissing on it

been preparing 20 years (unlike when COVID began)

Motherfucker I lived through two global respiratory outbreaks brought on by coronavirii before COVID what the fuck do you mean you weren't preparing for another one

Fuck do you mean failed to get word to her she's a senator during a senatorial vote and she's still sitting Vice President

Where the fuck else would she be if not vooting?
