Russia opposes Taiwan’s independence in any form and considers the island an inseparable part of China, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in remarks published on Sunday.
In an interview with Russia’s TASS state news agency, Lavrov also urged Japan to “think carefully” about what he described as a course towards militarisation".
I used to believe everything these people are saying. It took me years to recognize how propagandized I was and how ignorant of history, politics, and law I was. I thought that because I went to college and was intellectually curious and I challenged the positions of my elders and read counter-cultural texts that I was basing my views on facts and well formed reasoning.
Now that I realize just how wrong I was, and how ignorant I was, and indeed how difficult it was for me to admit that I was making all sorts of claims without the least bit of real historical engagement or understanding of the things I was talking about, now I feel compelled to disabuse people of their miseducation.
Used to be, but still are, too. Just with a different slant.
Yeah, because I spent 16 years in Chinese schools, watching movies rewritten by the Chinese military during my formative years, have members of my family in the Chinese military, adopted new parents to socialize me in China, etc.
Sorry. That’s not how this works. There’s nothing China could do that would be anything more than a drop in the ocean of propaganda and socialization I have received from the North Atlantic empire my entire life.
