I will say that I stand with Hong Kong, cause it’s on like Donkey Kong.

KNOW WHAT THE ENEMY IS THINKING....

FROM THE ARTICLE:

The crisis is a “propaganda gift” to the communist regime, which is currently drawing widespread condemnation over its encroachment into Hong Kong’s autonomy, said Helle Dale, senior fellow for public diplomacy at Washington-based think tank The Heritage Foundation.

Beijing has “been handed the situation on a platter and they’re making the most of it,” Dale told The Epoch Times. “They’ll do whatever they can to fan the flames of the problems we have.”

It is attempting to turn world opinion against the United States, shift opinions domestically, as well as stoke racial tensions to exacerbate the crisis, she said.

Gordon Chang, China expert and author of “The Coming Collapse of China,” said that while the Chinese regime’s specific goal is to shift the global conversation away from Hong Kong, its propaganda efforts form part of a multi-decade campaign to undermine the United States.

The regime is “trying to go after the U.S. and tar our reputation in general,” Chang said. “Their real goal is to destroy the United States.”

Dale said that the regime has proven itself to be “quite nimble in taking advantage of current events,” and has ramped up its global propaganda efforts since the CCP virus outbreak. During the pandemic, Beijing sought to deflect attention away from its responsibility in causing the virus’s worldwide spread by spreading disinformation about the virus origins and portraying the regime as an exemplar in global containment efforts.
