I work around teenagers. I once listened to a highschool redditor coaching his league of legends team and tell them that if they are losing to a Chinese team then to start yelling “tianammen square!” over the chat because the ceeceepee will disconnect the Chinese team. He claimed he did this all the time and it worked each time. The amount of confidence he said this with was unnerving.

These reddit libs really believe this is some sort of incantation that banishes reality and Chinese people.

As a Chinese-American, sadly I can confirm that in my experience, most Chinese-Americans are pretty brainwashed by Western propaganda and hate/are ashamed of China or being Chinese at some level. Personally, I love and support China and the government but I’m afraid to openly admit that. Once I just simply said “I got friends in China” and a (History) teacher whipped his head around and screamed “WHAT!?!” And gave me the most evil glare. I’ve had a college professor literally tell the class that Chinese people have no concept of love.

I don’t know how internalized the propaganda actually is for Chinese Americans, or if they’re just simply afraid of vocalizing support of an “enemy” country while knowing that every person surrounding you has an insane irrational hatred of China and all chinese people and literally want blood.

The plea deal probably: agree to be an imperial propagandist or die in a mysterious accident.
