Like China has been made out to literally be the boogeyman. Anything and everything bad in the world is blamed on them when your average Chinese person has never even interacted with an anglo before.

We saw this too little while back with Iraq and Afghanistan, two countries that had fuck all to do with 9/11 but the new york times said they're the baddies and libs and chuds like the toilet slaves they are said "YES SIR".

It's not just USians, the whole West™ has started blaming everything on China and Chinese people.

They all fall under the same propaganda bubble so it makes sense.

Is that the "not in China, Russia, or NK" bubble?

America has killed 2million innocent people every decade since ww2.

All 3 of those countries are better than america, and your perception that they're worse is not based in material reality judging actual things that have actually happened but instead on your feelings defined by movies and television.

No, it’s actually the “same map” bubble that makes up about 20% of the world. You’re clearly stuck in it yourself.

THEY are the reason our perfect system isn't functioning properly. THEY are the ones preventing the tide from lifting everyone's boat and trickling down on us!

As a European, please don't forget that criticism should be on the whole west, not just on America, and even less on Americans as people.

I was thinking about how the most fucked-up perceptions of homeless people are pretty easily debunked if people look at information about systemic poverty, the causes of homelessness, etc., but how it basically doesn't matter because we have so many people who want to believe that there are subhumans among them who need to be culled.

Okay I was being harsh, your average toilet slave is a lot better and nicer than these assholes.
