'Once upon a virus': Chinese video takes swipe at US response to COVID-19

A Chinese state media outlet releases an animated video using Lego pieces to mock the US response to the novel coronavirus.

Propaganda? Naw, it's true.

Mocking? Yup. And they got us good.

I take it this is some more of that good old fashioned conservative winning.

Jesus... Syria, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, North Korea, Brazil (via business bail outs), China, Mexico... the US as gotten it's ass handed to itself, over and over again. That'll do Trump, that'll do.

The truth is CCP propaganda... OK.

I mean fuck the CCP, but that shit's funny the way they trash our Dear Leader who has steered us on a course towards death. Just like I can laugh at our Dear Leader because he's funny sometimes even though I find him a completely worthless pile of shit who is the enemy of the people.

Ouch. I mean they aren't wrong.

Something false?

Something false?

Yes. LAUGHABLY so. Take almost everything "China" warns about in the video for December and January and in reality they said the exact opposite.

The video portrays them as forthcoming with information and warnings but they were not forthcoming at all. They literally tried to suppress anyone who was. You know it's true. They tried to hide the "strange pneumonia" and human transmissibility all while pressuring the world NOT to take drastic protective actions that might hurt China's economy... all while hypocritically taking those same actions against Wuhan/Hubei to protect the rest of China.

Did you know that the CCP demanded that all research related to the virus be approved by the CCP before release and they never approved the release of the genome for which the video gives them credit? Indeed, they did not respond to the request of something so monumentally important prompting the lab to go ahead and release it without permission. What did the CCP do next? Shut down the lab that sequenced and released the genome... during a time when their services were obviously needed more than ever.

China was still saying that there was no human-to-human transmission but these researchers knew better. They knew it was too grave/important not to release it, despite the repercussions.

It's straight-up lying propaganda. Unless you live in China with their censored media you should be ashamed for not knowing this and defending it. We have no excuse for not knowing better.

I for one always take my advice from random nobodies online.

The world is looking at Trump and they see him for who he really is just like anybody else who hasn't been conned into Trump's cult following.

By now, if there's anyone out there who thinks Trump is still the best hope for our nation's security and welfare, well all I can say is good luck with that when he loses his reelection bid and please do visit him often at one of our fine correctional facilities where quite a few of his close associates are now residing in.

If and when he ever gets convicted for the many crimes he's being accused of and sent to jail the only people I feel sorry for are his Secret Service detail that have to follow him there and share in his cloistered lifestyle.

The only thing China got us good with was covid19. They got the rest of the world as well. Now you applaud their laughing at all the people they killed.
What the fuck is wrong with you?

So did Trump not know the Chinese government are lying pieces of shit? Is this some brand new revelation that the nation of Mao puts no value in human life? Is that the new right wing defense? Anyone with a room temperature IQ knew this virus was an enormous threat back when Trump was saying it was 15 cases going to zero. And he and the GOP knew it too, that's why they were selling off their stock before the inevitable crash.

It's funny because Trump kept pretending it wasn't shit. The GOP early response to the pandemic:

1. Cut off some air travel from China
2. Dump stock before the Dow crashed
3. <crickets>

Sure, Chinese propaganda sugar-coats the Chinese behaviour and contribution to the disaster. But Trump did give them plenty of material to work with for the US side of that.

There's a ridiculous tit-for-tat petulance about that video. Seriously undignified and childish in the context. Almost Trumpian in that respect.

 

[pcgeek11]

LOL. Fuck China.

I hope the world is smart enough to stop allowing China to own all the drugs, chemicals, PPE Markets.

It was indeed eye opening that they have that much under their control. We need to stop that crap now. It is much better to pay more and not be at the mercy of another country that obviously don't give a shit about you.

It's something even Trumpsters can understand. I figure they're the target audience.

As Americans we're already at the mercy of a country that doesn't give a shit about us though. Not like we have to go to China for that.

I guess you could move...

Ah typical love it or leave it nationalist bullshit from the right. Call out our failed nation and the response is leave like we're just going to be granted citizenship in nations run by responsible adults like Canada, Denmark, Germany, or New Zealand.

Is there some reason you are talking to me about Trump, Right-wing defenders, and the GOP? I made ONE post here and none of that relates to what I said or what I was responding to.

What does that have to do with my comment about people here sharing Chinese propaganda without shame? CNN and the CBC got pilloried for doing exactly that. Anyone doing this deserves ridicule/shame for being so easily manipulated.

When hal2kilo cluelessly challenged others to point out the falsehoods he accidentally revealed just how easily manipulated some here are by self-serving propaganda from Communist Chinese state media. Don't be a stooge.
