    I sincerely doubt that a covert arm of the Chinese propaganda machine would label themselves as Marxist-Leninist.

      Why not? Socialism and Anarchy are both very popular among the fringe groups and youth demographics they’re trying to persuade into subterfuge. They’re also targeting LGBT.

      Go over to Hexbear or Lemmygrad and you can clearly see tons of pro-China and pro-Russia (more specifically Pro-Jinping and Pro-Putin) posts all hours of the day, and all of it is constantly flooding into the instances that federate with them.

        Yeah, it’s honestly been really disappointing to me to see the general apathy towards all the propaganda on here

        I’d love to recommend the fediverse to friends, the idea is incredible

      They stoke extremist political views in their “enemies” societies while also spreading propaganda. Its a facade
