China-Related Cognitive Dissonance 101

Lesson 1 - How to most effectively ignore any positive comments about China

Chinese Mainlander: They can't access the truth

Overseas Chinese: Brainwashed from childhood

Undetermined: Bot

Foreigner: Paid CCP shill

Lesson 2

If you've decided to join the high-demand wonderful world of anti-China journalism, increase your efforts to lable those with opposing opinions as "CCP Shills", it helps to effectively divert attention away from the fact that you actually do get paid for your narrative.

Lesson 3

If you find you've pushed the limits too far, and others begin to suspect you of being a racist, immediately use the first available applicable line below:

- I have a Chinese wife/husband
- I had a Chinese girlfriend/boyfriend
- I have a Chinese friend
- I like Dim Sum

Lesson 4

When using content/material from one of the many friendly anti-China propagandists working with ASPI or similar NGO's, call any critics in your comments "Tankies" in order to divert attention from the fact that the source material was funded by actual tank manufacturers
