Oblivious of the anti-imperialist sentiment around the world, media is still in the old mode, tells and relays imperialist lies, and does not relent in its false and venomous anti-China propaganda. 🧵
The latest is relayed from UK how China allegedly controls global bodies like WHO, Interpol etc even while gleefully saying the US and EU still control World Bank, IMF and the like.
Ever new stories are invented to damn the “boogeyman” China, to promote the new cold war renewed by the Biden regime, even while old ones like the Tiananmen lies are re-sold.

“Hundreds of people, most of them workers and passersby, did die that night, but in a different place and under other circumstances…” #TiananmenSquare
The reference is to hordes of armed men, including foreign-aided hooligans, who went berserk, and indulged in mayhem, killed troops etc. (“65 PLA trucks and 47 APCs … were totally destroyed, and 485 other military vehicles were damaged,” #TiananmenSquare
In 2011, a report by the UK Telegraph (4 June, 2011) titled ‘Wikileaks: no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square, cables claim’ revealed that a leaked US government document to WikiLeaks confirmed the Chinese side of the story that there was no one killed at Tiananmen Square in 1989
No classified information was passed on when former British military pilots offered training to China, a South African flying school has said. “has been in contact with the UK MoD for many years and they are fully aware of the nature of the company's business".
