    Awesome, isn’t it?

    Turns out that if the government is controlling the narrative by threatening, harassing or jailing whoever dares go against it, people will only read about the good things!

    Wouldn’t it be great if the US did the same thing? Could we all become a happy place like China if we tried a bit harder to make our country… I dunno… great again?

Or even fucking TikTok from recent years that bent the knee and started spewing american R/Trump propaganda after last election is USA
