      Propaganda in action.

      There’s a trade war between the US and China, so useful idiots are proud to do the dirty work for their rulers.

      Whenever I see someone spreading FUD about tiktok or huawei, I would question them only to be met with “it’s so obvious, I’m not going to tell you the details” or linking to a blog that doesn’t contain any evidence. This happened, without fail, every time.

      It really cemented in my mind that most people are just sheep being herded by those smarter and richer than them.

      Stupidity is in vogue. It’s cool to be a useful idiot.
