    Yeah dude, let me take some time out of my day to track down the history text books I used in high school so I can cite to you some anti-China propaganda. You’re funny.

    Edit: Oh hey look. I literally just googled, “US education anti-china” and here’s a pretty informative article:

    https://thehill.com/opinion/education/4472696-the-anti-china-academic-panic-is-hurting-america/

    I’m sure that’s the extent of it though, right?

      That article doesn’t, at all, support your point. It’s about academics being harassed for being Chinese, not about our education system teaching kids that Chinese people are sent to reeducation camps for petty things.

      Heaping dishonesty on top of your empty claims just makes your position look even weaker, and casts a shadow on your credibility and objectivity.

        It’s the chilling effect from years of anti-China propaganda, even amongst scientists. The fact that you’re incapable of putting 2 and 2 together there speaks volumes. Or maybe you just don’t want to.

        I’m not a scholar on anti-China propaganda in the US (I just live/lived through it), but I am certain that if you actually gave a shit about this, you would do a modicum of research yourself. I’m not making some kind of fringe claim here dude.

        Should I just call it “anti-communist” propaganda? Would you understand then? Or are you gonna pretend that’s not real too?

          Lol I asked for your “2” and you were unable to provide it.

          You’re projecting your ignoring of the facts to maintain your conclusion.
