Oh, messing with the China propagandist who just posted a statistic saying that China surpassed the US in life expectancy.
They always post these weird china-glorifying not-world-news bits in this world news community, so I make verifiable counter-posts.
It's a hobby
Ah, makes sense now lol
They're hardly a propagandist. They've made plenty of posts which paint China in a less than flattering light.
I haven't seen any of those. Many of their posts are about a less-than-newsworthy milestone, demonstrably false and posted with heavily biased titles to exaggerate or fabricate "achievements" of China.
Turns out, you were the propagandist all along.
Also, super rude and offers zero supporting evidence for their headlines when called out.
Just because you have a frothing hatred of China doesn't mean everyone does. It seems totally reasonable to compare the US (the world superpower) to the up and coming main competitor.
