Right… the video and photos are fakes and Columbia Journalism Review is a conspiracy rag 🙄
Previously on c/asklemmy: What are some good places to start getting acquainted with American politics in as unbiased a manner as possible?
The videos and photos are very much real, but they do not leave any evidence for your titles or descriptions of them.
The article of the Columbia Journalism Review does not argue that the Chinese government did not massacre people as a result of pro-democracy demonstrations. It just argues it didn't happen literally at the square.
You might be the one absorbing and repeating propaganda here.
Golly, after all these years of investigating and talking with people, that thought had never occurred to me. You‘ve opened my eyes to new possibilities.
You seem to focus entirely on English-language American propaganda. Did you ever apply that to yourself and wonder if you've absorbed any Chinese propaganda?
I focus on Five Eyes propaganda because I live there and speak English. It’s the propaganda that I’ve lived under my entire life, and it’s the propaganda that’s targeted specifically at me, my peers, and my community.
China is on the other side of the world, and I can’t read or speak Chinese. I’m hardly affected by China’s media, and I can only significantly affect my own community, not ones that are oceans away.
You're on the internet, on social media, which is accessed by people from around the world, and Chinese people can speak English. People from outside our own community can and do try to manipulate us using propaganda.
Wow, yet more wisdom revealed to me for the first time. Where have you been all my life?
