这个论坛目前由一个不会说中文的人主持,他不是共产党员,而是一个反帝国主义、反附庸国的欧盟联邦主义者,他似乎在任何地方都找不到立足点,因为他国家的所有政党都是亲美附庸国的,所以暂时居住在这里。

Bear with me, on this boba liberal's video.

She talks a bit about restriction, censorship, and standardization of exported media by the ebil CCP /s, but rather focuses it on its consequent dullness, on-the-nose approach and cheapening of its media products...

How would you respond to this, point by point? (Sorry if I may sound like I argue in bad-faith)

Additional thanks if you don't rely too much on whataboutism (yes, we can apply the artificial-politics-imposed media label, associated with CPC, on U.S media, like G.I Joe and Rambo, some of them even funded by the Department of Defense)

China has actual soft power, in that they build infrastructure for other countries. People can point to a hospital or a highway and say “China helped up build that.”

USSR did that. And whoop dee doo, would you look at that - near damn all former republics hate USSR, call it totalitarian oppression and simp for USA!

That's a bit different though, that was an internal issue, nothing to do with their power projection abroad, and the former states of the USSR hating it has more to do with 30 years of neoliberal propaganda being shoved down their throats rather than anything the USSR actually did.

China gives aid with few strings attached, whereas the USSR demanded that they mirror their political system, which led to things like the Sino-Soviet split and otherwise.
