West lies to make China look worse, China doesn't even focus on making the west look as bad as it actually is (hexbear.net)

Someone posted a succinct wojak meme of this but it doesn't even do it justice

Western opinion of other countries is far worse than the reality of the country is.

Chinese (or any non-west) opinion of the West, is always way more favorable than the west actually is.

Even the few anti-western things that Chinese people are exposed to (healthcare costs in US, ineffective trainbuilding in US/UK/Europe) are just material. Chinese people do not know about things like Tulsa, let alone the other 1000 massacres equivalent to Tulsa that even Americans don't know about

Because of Chinese censorship laws, Chinese do not see the videos of American police officers releasing 50 shots into an unarmed already-detained man because a squirrel farted somewhere nearby

Anti-Western propaganda does not exist. And even a balanced reality of the West does not exist. ALL mainstream viewpoints on the PLANET are pro-western, sometimes even moreso if they DON'T speak english

CIA's consent manufacturing infrastructure is just absolutely massive

They don't even need to do it themselves. Most of the time, it's Americans making shit up and passing it off as fact. When Americans can't find a source for something, they will invent one. You see this a lot with neo-nazis and incels where they can find evidence of a Jewish conspiracy, so they make sock puppet accounts pretending to be Jewish, then use those as proof. Examples of them getting caught:

I've also noticed they use AI slop to make fake pictures of whatever, then say "these images were trained on real images but (((they))) won't let you see them." Again, implying a Jewish conspiracy that scrubs the internet of racist images of Indians or black people or women for...reasons. This content then spreads among reactionaries and is disseminated through places like r*ddit, Facebook, 4chan, etc.
