#except the aforementioned chinese government propaganda machine that wants you to call them out without calling the ccp out

constantly seeing shen yun adverts is so surreal because i'm always left wondering how many people know that it's a show run by a weird far-right new religious cult that's got a propaganda machine in an underground war with the chinese government's propaganda machine. and why they advertise themselves like a tour of kinky boots

#personal crap #it isn't really a rabbit hole bc you can basically find it out with a quick google search #but it's weirdly fascinating to me bc they advertise everywhere and i've never known anyone to give a shit #except the aforementioned chinese government propaganda machine that wants you to call them out without calling the ccp out #if your response to this is basically 'jesse what the fuck are you talking about' that's completely normal don't worry
