      From what I’ve heard, China tends to embrace the mistakes of the past and uses that as guidance for present decisions.

      I’m not here to like boot lick for them or anything, but like, be accurate.

          The Chinese government denies none of it—aside from Western disinformation about it—nor is it kept secret from the Chinese people.

            Thank you for clearing up the truth! Fighting propaganda is important praxis.

              It’s because you’re spreading false information. Like I said I am no fan of China but you shouldn’t be spreading obvious lies. American propaganda is just as bad as anything.
