The United States government is admitting to deliberately promoting the spread of COVID-19.
I am sure other global south comrades can tell but this was not only done in philipines. In mexico there was propaganda spread about the sinovac too, the elites literall flew to the US to vaccinare themselves with pfizer or whatever instead of taking sinovac and much people simply refused to vaccinate because it was chinese.
This was a global campaign.
I can’t fucking believe they admitted to that.
The information in this is surreal considering it was published by a bourgeois news outlet. It almost makes me feel a little uneasy because why would they suddenly not care anymore.
The US has already done so much harm to my family in the Philippines by propping up Marcos Sr., and now this.
They are monsters.
The article still manages to paint China as the bad guy and gets in a few shots at Russia. Look at this:
Beijing didn’t limit its global influence efforts to propaganda. It announced an ambitious COVID assistance program, which included sending masks, ventilators and its own vaccines – still being tested at the time – to struggling countries. In May 2020, Xi announced that the vaccine China was developing would be made available as a “global public good,” and would ensure “vaccine accessibility and affordability in developing countries.” Sinovac was the primary vaccine available in the Philippines for about a year until U.S.-made vaccines became more widely available there in early 2022.
Xi you sneaky mf. Propaganda of the deed with Chinese characteristics.
Fr, though, the US is run by truly, truly despicable people. The US could’ve chosen not to limit its global influence efforts to propaganda or straightforward coercion but instead it doubled down. Not content with murdering 1 million of it’s own, it killed countless others in the shadows. For anyone wondering whether the US ruling class would rather destroy the planet with nukes than change it’s ways or give up power, there’s your answer.
