Yeah, they're really resisting. It's so silly. If they are so correct, then watching the video should have no impact on them at all.
It's kind of interesting in a way. They honestly seem to think that "Chinese brainwashing propaganda" is a real thing, like a cognitohazard, just being exposed to it is enough to make someone like China. Which is true, I guess, but they seem to think it is a magical capability of "Chinese propaganda" that does it, not the actual content of the videos.
If I were to make up a story about this lib, I'd say this is a guy who routinely makes racists jokes and complaints about the Chinese, and recently has noticed a lot more pushback for it. And they're concerned that they might be a racist, but they aren't! They're a good person which means that something insidious is going on, their friends, family and coworkers refusing to tolerate their racist jokes anymore is proof of a big Chinese conspiracy to brainwash people.
