Brilliant piece @nytimes on PRC propaganda machine's goals:
1)Spinning optimism
2)Protecting Chinese image
3)Disputing the origin of the virus (not Made in China narrative)https://t.co/QxSO9fNdKM

China’s Communist Party has long excelled at rewriting its own history for a domestic audience, but with its latest propaganda blitz on the novel coronavirus, it’s rewriting the present for a global audience. My latest for @ForeignPolicy https://t.co/ko8dar96iM

Wanna see Communist Party disinformation in action? Capitalizing on the real rise in racism against Asian Americans — this is going around inside China saying a Chinese American brigade (implication armed militia) has formed out of desperation to fight off a violent white riot. pic.twitter.com/2zQZ98sRJC

The implication is the US government has neglected the safety of Chinese Americans. Arguably true, but under Beijing propaganda, it's become a full blown reign of terror with guns on the streets. This is why when Trump says "Chinese virus" — it's a gift for Chinese propaganda.
