Lmao. The reasoning is ChIna used social media to urge investigation of Fort Detrick, so the US military ran an Anti-Vaxx campaign in a 3rd party country. Pretty standard US response tbh.
Also, if they’re claiming China is behind the Fort Detrick lab leak theory, that bumps up its legitimacy in my eyes.
Also, also, I read some of that DOJ complaint and they also claim that China tried to sow discourse by posting about George Floyd and American hypocrisy. Which is pretty wild how even according to the US, US enemies are always like “and this bad thing the US is doing is bad and you should do something about that” while the US is like “we will provide arms and training for death squads for capitalism.”
Really drives the point home, imo.
Actually pointing out America’s blatant hypocrisy is doing a heckin whataboutism
whataboutism
I was skeptical about the Fort Detrick lab leak theory for a while, but when Biden stopped pushing the Wuhan lab leak theory the second China said “sure, you can investigate the Wuhan lab if we can investigate Fort Detrick”, that made me a lot more suspicious

“What are we, a bunch of Asians?!” is the most bipartisan phrase in Amerika.
says it in response to whenever they need to accept the fact that yes, Amerika did do a bad thing.
says it in response to you suggesting the simplest, most objectively good policy like high speed rail or walkable cities.

Counterpoint: I actually think a lot of these ghouls are 100% self aware, know their the bad guys but just love all the power and treats they get. I suspect they literally cackle like Lord Freeza in the privacy of their own homes while loudly announcing their cynical Machiavellian plans to nobody.
Not too far off with people I know working for weapons manufacturers.
Americans, doing American things Americanly: Wao! You’re so Chinese for doing that
How many countries has China bombed since World War Two again?
Not as many as the US but far more than they should have. The Sino-Soviet split was a disaster for humanity.

See for yourself. History is not a secret. You can know things.
I mean, if you’re talking about “bombing” strictly as arial bombardment sure.
I don’t think anyone believes the PLA’s use of artillery rather than bombers makes, say, the Sino-Vietnamese war and subsequent decades of indiscriminate shelling any better.
Hang on there, who did they shell indiscriminately for decades?
Truly funny how this article is dripping in sinophobia, but still comes off making the US look like it overreacted to relatively minor acts that they claim China made.
They put so much effort into demonizing China, but the US is the star devil of their article.
to counter what it perceived as China’s growing influence in the Philippines, a nation hit especially hard by the deadly virus.
Damn, I wonder why.
Pentagon used a combination of fake social media accounts on multiple platforms to spread fear of China’s vaccines among Muslims at a time when the virus was killing tens of thousands of people each day. A key part of the strategy: amplify the disputed contention that, because vaccines sometimes contain pork gelatin, China’s shots could be considered forbidden under Islamic law.
No comment.
The military program started under former President Donald Trump and continued months into Joe Biden’s presidency
Of course it’s bipartisan!
The U.S. military is prohibited from targeting Americans with propaganda, and Reuters found no evidence the Pentagon’s influence operation did so.
Sure, Reuters.
Only 2.1 million of its 114 million citizens were fully vaccinated – far short of the government’s target of 70 million. By the time Duterte spoke, COVID cases exceeded 1.3 million, and almost 24,000 Filipinos had died from the virus. The difficulty in vaccinating the population contributed to the worst death rate in the region.
No comment.
Reporters also reviewed Facebook, X and Instagram posts, technical data and documents about a set of fake social media accounts used by the U.S. military. Some were active for more than five years.
But the smol bean companies were doing their best!
Central Asian countries such as Turkmenistan represented an influence battleground between the United States and China, which arrived earlier than America did with vaccines for the pandemic-plagued country.
Is that the fucking takeaway here? That the US couldn’t sell their fucking vaccines to Global South countries?
“It was terrible,” said a senior administration official describing the reaction after learning of the campaign’s pig-related posts. “I was shocked. The administration was pro-vaccine and our concern was this could affect vaccine hesitancy, especially in developing countries.”
By spring 2021, the National Security Council ordered the military to stop all anti-vaccine messaging. “We were told we needed to be pro-vaccine, pro all vaccines,” said a former senior military officer who helped oversee the program. Even so, Reuters found some anti-vax posts that continued through April and other deceptive COVID-related messaging that extended into that summer.
Disgusting fucking pigs couldn’t care less about being pro or against the virus itself.
And in February, the contractor that worked on the anti-vax campaign – General Dynamics IT – won a $493 million contract. Its mission: to continue providing clandestine influence services for the military.
Glad to know they’ll keep contributing to the death counts for millions of dollars
Posting this list of people for no reason:

Our defining moral character sets General Dynamics apart.
Well, they’re not wrong.
Because the internet is a series of tubes, the military takes great care to avoid contamination of the American tube when poisoning the others.
:Laughs in Radio Liberty:
I love my tax money paying for (incompetent) internet trolls…
But I thought only Russia would dare to spread misinfo on social media?
If it’s for some glorious avocado toast and overpriced coffee, I can make an exception
The Pentagon’s audit concluded that the military’s primary contractor handling the campaign, General Dynamics IT, had employed sloppy tradecraft, taking inadequate steps to hide the origin of the fake accounts, said a person with direct knowledge of the review.
“We’re not mad you did it, we’re mad you got caught!”
The CIA continues to be a blight on humanity
Ok, now I’m completely convinced that the Fort Detrick theory is 100% true. What ever happened with that mysterious vaping illness?
It disappeared right as Maryland had their worst ‘flu’ season ever in the latter half of 2019. There were also several nursing homes in the vicinity of Fort Detrick that suffered outbreaks of a “severe respiratory illness” that spring and summer
Rather than an image of google news searches, someone with time on their hands should really see about sitting down and pulling up the hospitalization numbers for that time period. I’m sure they’re available somewhere.
Yup. That’s what I’m talking about. United Snakkkes released that shit in China to cover up the Ft. Detrick leak. It’s the only narrative that makee any sense at all.
It doesn’t even need to have been intentionally released. My guess is that the lab fucked up under lax procedures and that the virus went to China, where it morphed into something even worse in Wuhan. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was intentional, though.
I’m starting to believe.

is there a bad thing in the world that the US state apparatus isnt heavily involved in?
No, and if there is they rush to get into it
That is thr number one proof that a bad thing isn’t happening. If it was we’d be invested in it. Us companies made a bunch of money of thr holocaust.
Just how much do the CIA and the American regime want the rest of the world to suffer? It’s honestly pissing me off.
Have you not read The Jakarta Method yet? Because the answer is, a lot.
Not yet only because Im reading through the Holocaust Industry and couple others, but now Im definitely starting that book.
Word. The Blowback Podcast is also good as they cover some of the creation of Fort Detrick and a number of times the US has used biological warfare.
It goes all the way to the 4chan ethos: I did it for the lulz.
I’m sure that the US really is just horrific for the sake of horrific, and since our “culture” is determined by the bottom 10% of any given graduating class. They probably think being the asshole of the world is charming.
Pretty sure they’re running one all over
Man I wonder what kind of political messaging would be getting spread by American military contractors that were given carte blanche to do whatever the fuck they wanted in service to an operation literally designed to kill innocent people to spite their socialist geopolitical rival
also, why does this keep beeping
how am i still getting surprised by this shit. it’s like they come up with a new way to commit war crimes every other day
yeah
i mean we already knew this, that they are mass murderers. but theres never enough blood for them is there?
jesus fucking christ
