Has anyone noticed that at least 99% of any "news", forum posts, etc. containing "CCP" are pure regurgitated political garbage? It cannot be just bots and psy ops. Real people do this sort of thing, too. Quite impressive how an entire population has been whipped into parroting this crap while pointing the finger. It wish it was funny but it isn't.


In what way is this article "political garbage"? Did you even read it?


> how an entire population has been whipped into parroting this crap

It's not organic. Fairly apolitical people are being tricked into passively supporting it by the media illusion that it's an overwhelming consensus.

Well, it's probably because they don't call themselves CCP or CPC but 中国共产党


Yes in Chinese. CPC is their preferred initialism in English.
