I have been seeing images of skull pieces scattered across the streets for two months for a son of a bitch like that to come and say that the deaths in Myanmar are the invention of the CIA. https://twitter.com/BenjaminNorton/status/1380190759828262917
The Curious Case of Benjamin Norton, the anti-imperialist who rooted for the empire.
"This Human Rights activists receive money and awards from Europe and US".
Oh, sorry, I didn't know that, I'm going to look for a human rights organization that receives money and awards from Russia and China to work with.

But Ben has a point, we may have been fooled to be on the wrong side by a CIA psyops. Perhaps the historically genocidal military elite who seized power in a coup and are censoring the internet while shooting peaceful demonstrators in the streets are the real victims here.
To people who believe in this shit and is not a bad faith actor like Ben, I leave this personal observation: Myanmar today is at the forefront of the anti-fascist struggle. Milk Tea Alliance is the state of the art of intersectional internet activism.
Journalistic efforts to document what is happening on the ground in the country has been a successful example on the power of the combination of citizen and professional journalism in the midst of censorship, arrests, intimidation and murder.
Listen to local journalists and activists and learn from them instead of trying to be the outsider who thinks he's the one who really knows what's going on sitting behind a computer screen 8.000 miles away from the scene.
