If this isn’t a message to move to indie web I don’t know what is

How much US military-industrial Kool-Aid have you drunk?
A wild tankie appears and minimizes China’s surveillance state. Hey there you, have any Chinese immigrant friends? Did you know they are survielled and harassed around the world by the Chinese govenment? Your leaders will always fail you, mine too. I’m not gonna sit here in denial about it.
