Oh yes, nothing like suppressing the new and media, and giving false numbers. Oh, and let's not forget at one point China blamed our military for it. And the scientist who released a video informing the world that China's government was definitely suppressing information, who suddenly died a day or two later, due to "complications from COVID."


But you're right. Their communist government is ran much better than ours.

who are you referring to? the doctor that broke protocol to disclose an unknown, novel virus via social media under active investigation, or the scientist who claims the virus was wuhan lab created?
either way, both have already been debunked as false.

tell me, are their numbers any more false than ours?
ignoring the numbers, by the looks of what's happening on the ground today (i.e. they have mostly resumed normal lives and our cases are rising with talks of future lockdowns), I'd say yes, without a doubt their govt handled it far better than ours.

That whole idea that China is bad and wrong just because it is (somewhat) communist, is so absurd and outdated.

Let's face it, they are doing a fine job, and if the West were not so ideologically biased and intolerant, we would learn from China instead of condemning everything and anything just because it is Chinese.

the US gov/media propaganda machines are powerful institutions.

people will believe news sources from the opposing political side are biased, but can't imagine that news regarding china could possibly be propaganda.
the CIA all but confirmed that they plant fake news stories whose primary goal is to sway public opinion about communist states.

Good point ... both China AND the Democrats call it the Trump Virus.
Facebook and Twitter must agree ....Nobody is banned from saying Trump Virus.
Everyone is banned from saying China Virus.

The GOP doesn't run Europe though, in fact there are many left wing governments there.

have anything of substance to add to the conversation or just resorting to name calling, as you always do?
try refuting something I said, if you have the brain cells for it.
