Trump had a helpful reporter in the press room today really dismantle the perversion of language some reporters (like NBC and CNN) have been parroting from the CCP. Nations are a construct of identity defined by systems of belief, not physical races. Chinese isn't a race, it's a nation of ethnicities, all under the boot of the CCP. Trump struggles to parse such a nuance, but has been unflappable in dismissing wokester accusations he is fanning hate toward anyone who looks like they are of asian ancestry. Incidents have happened, but hardly an epidemic... like the one that is actually killing people which DID come from the nation of China. He has plenty of cringy, eye rolling moments of self congratulation and dodgy figures and projections, but he at least set the stage for a serious, not faux-woke, reckoning with the CCP after the dust settles. The lapdog media tried to help the CCP pivot who is the real villain, and Trump squashed them with conceptual tools laid out for him in Fox News' previous news cycle.

2020-03-20 08:29:26 +0000 UTCWhen the CCP came into power 70 years ago, they created their own 50 cent army to spread propaganda across the world. Now that we have Facebook, Twitter, and whatever social media network flavor of the month, the CCP propaganda machine is churning out their message faster. The bad and astounding part of social media is that the more something is referenced, the more it trends and mainstream news outlets start using the propaganda as truth. In other words, social media becomes an echo chamber. Let's give some SJW some respect. Some of their ideals are meaningful and not malicious. The CCP propaganda machine is absolutely malicious.
