What’s up with this straight up pro-china and pro-russia stuff on Lemmy lately?

It’s not even praising the people of China and Russia, but rather their gov directly.

Obviously the states have problems, and the EU to a lesser degree, but they at least have some human rights.

Is this some kind of organized disinformation campaign?

      If you see @lemmy.ml you can fairly safely assume that yes, they buy it. Tiananmen is either a “conspiracy by the west” or massively downplayed, online censorship is ignored, the Xinjiang internment camps dont exist and China can do no wrong.

      Funnily enough they almost always live in western democracies where they don’t need to fear reprisals for criticizing their government, something they wouldn’t dare do in China.

        bold assertion to make while pretty much every western democracy is cracking down on people protesting for palestine
