    I’d rather believe in right wing conspiracies because I would at least know that I’d still be smart enough not to fall for Chinese propaganda trying to get both sides of the US to fight each other so they don’t focus on the bigger threat.

        The bigger threat is countries like Russia and China tearing down the freedoms of the west. Tearing down our system being able to speak against the government without fear of disappearing, without fear of mass censorship because we posted an official statistic that the government later decides is not to be spread and must bet claimed as false, the freedom of being able to freely move from one country to another without the average innocent person being pressured to return to their home country or else your family will be threatened and punished, etcetera.

      so they don’t focus on the bigger threat.

      It’s true, PLA summarily execute over a thousand Americans per year, with that number increasing year by year. Oh, whoops, I meant to say “American cops”.

        The threat is China, Russia, and the other anti-western countries. As someone who actually enjoys the freedoms the west provides, I’d rather not lose them to powers that will disappear you for speaking out against the most minor of criticism about the government.
