I don't know if this has been discussed, but crazy...

China's Been Flooding Facebook With Shady Ads Blaming Trump for the Coronavirus Crisis

Will Nasty Pelosi and Shifty "bug eyed" Schiff and the Democrats go after Chinese Collusion?

--------
excerpt..
The ads have been running for months, but Facebook's systems didn't catch them and flag them as political until now.

Chinese state media has been flooding Facebook and Instagram with shady political ads praising Beijing and bashing “racist” President Trump as part of a wider campaign to rewrite its part in the global coronavirus pandemic.

The undisclosed political ads, from Global Times, Xinhua News Agency, Global China Television Network (GCTN), and China Central Television (CCTV), all ran on the two platforms in recent months, targeting users around the world in English, Chinese, and Arabic, but they've only now been flagged by Facebook as being political.

The ads ran without a political disclaimer, ....

Considering how they reacted to a few Russian Facebook ads in 2016, I’m sure we will hear from the Democrats and the media anytime now how they’re outraged over this foreign interference in our coming election.

Anytime now

There are literally HUNDREDS of examples of Filth Blue Checkers doing what you posted on Twitter. It is disgusting and shameful, but again, these are Progressives on a Progressive platform.

The left is completely bought in to supporting China now and their propaganda. We have an enemy sitting right here in the US, and they hate their fellow citizens more than they hate the country that did this.

Yesterday I called two of our favorite Chinese restaurants here in Baton Rouge to order take out (of course) and both of them were closed.

This was around 6 PM so it was prime supper ordering time.

We've been ordering from them for close to 10 years.

Is there a backlash against Chinese owned businesses that has caused Chinese restaurants to have to close down?

I would advise China to use propaganda and direct influence of US politicians and corporatists to sway the US attitude towards China. "Blame Trump" is the obvious correct propaganda message, because it will receive ample support from domestic US entities such as US mass media and the US Democratic Party.

There will be plenty of time later to bribe the powerful and hire lawyers to maintain the status quo ante-Trump. Right now the main propaganda effort for China should focus on maximizing the use of domestic US entities (mass media and Democratic Party) in order to BLAME TRUMP.

Whenever China's propaganda objectives dove-tail completely with US domestic-entity propaganda objectives, China's efforts have the best chance of success.

With a bit of luck, China can look forward to the restoration of the Clinton-Obama Era of US-China relations.

China is good friend to USA. Trump is bad.

I thought these platforms were policing misinformation and dishonest propaganda? You mean to tell me big tech is biased and working for China? They’re coming for it all right now and we better be ready.

That reminds me, how come “Chinese Flu” is considered racist, but “Russian Collusion” isn’t ?
