  If you'd ever wondered what pro-CIA astroturfing looks like, this is a pretty good example of the typical playbook. - Accuse someone of being a shill without addressing argument - Dismiss completely valid comparisons as whataboutism Repeat ad nauseum. It never ceases to blow my mind how deeply people are willing to shove their head in the sand in order to justify the misinformation funded by their government. US intelligence aactively manufacturing genocide campaign against geopolitical competitor and lying about it on the world stage. That is a face, and no amount of reframing or PRC blame shifting is going to change that.

    Yeah see this is essentially what I'm talking about. dirtyid isn't really willing to engage with the points I made about China itself, so instead they try to divert attention to the CIA (??) It's almost comical how underhanded and ineffective this type of debate is. It's as if you're trying to have a debate about the actions of Enron and your opponent insists on bringing up how what Bernie Madoff did was worse. My friend, I'm a Canadian. I have nothing good to say about the CIA. But I have far, far worse to say about the most bloody and repressive totalitarian regime present in the world right now. You and every other ignorant pawn have blood on your hands, and I hope some day you feel rightfully ashamed.
