A unified approach towards China is an ideal that Western nations can strive for, considering the many offensive postures of the propagandists in the nation.
As the US military surges into Washington to guard America's newly elected President, Beijing is delighted by the chaos in the capital of its strategic rival. Chinese propagandists have compared the Capitol Hill rioters to Hong Kong democracy activists, and claimed an equivalence between arresting the rioters and rounding up Hong Kong's elected officials. They have used Twitter's decision to ban President Donald Trump to justify their own intolerance of free speech.
