Some Chinese company decided to sponsor the local pro basketball team here and instead of thinking: โ€˜good for the teamโ€™, the media is al like: โ€˜SHOULD WE BE CAREFUL FOR CHINESE SPYING?โ€™. Like, surely it is the utmost importance for China to be able to spy on a mediocre basketball team in a country that doesnโ€™t like basketball.

I think it would be hilarious for Chinese companies to just start sponsoring tons of sports teams in the US, no strings attached, just money. And watch the American people implode with paranoia of their own making.

How do westerners fall for cold war propaganda? Read a textbook

Their textbooks are also full of red scare propaganda. From the moment they are born they are bombed with red scare propaganda, its fairly hard to get out of that indoctrination.

Many also choose to pretend to believe it when though they know itโ€™s not true because it gives licence to their hate.

An absolute fuck ton of it disguised as something new (by changing a couple words) from the moment youโ€™re born until something pulls you out of the circle of influence.

Went down to the US for the weekend to visit gamer friends. Iโ€™m driving in a school zone and slowed down as a result, there were yโ€™know kids everywhere crossing the street. A USian then speeds behind me, barely avoids plowing into my back, then slows down to hang out of the car, yelling about how slowing down was bad for their dog. Then at the next few lights they tried to ram and brake check us, again hanging out of their car yelling slurs and murderous threats.

White americans are so fucking absurd, I grew up there and they will all kill if you even look at their ridiculously abused pets the wrong way. Like a friend was bit once and got pepper sprayed when she tried to stop the dog. Not saying Canadians are much better (in a lot of ways weโ€™re worse and more mask off with our racism), but USians are a special kind of unhinged. I constantly have to remind myself that just about every single white person in Canada or the US is descended from someone that killed to live there
