Can you think of ONE movie where the Communist Chinese appear? Chinese? As Communists? In the modern era?
Are they are any movies showing Mao in an honest light? The Gang of Four? The Cultural Revolution? Maybe. Perhaps I am not aware of them.
But I was thinking of Stranger Things, and their effort in the third season to inject the Russians as bad guys into the consciousness of 2019 (or whatever it was). They WERE the bad guys in the 1980’s, but it is not unreasonable to assume latent propagandistic intent in the series to support the anti-Russian narrative SOMEBODY–and I would suggest the Chinese and their supporters are the logical best guess–is pushing so hard.
And I think of some of the stupid things David Harbor has said, then ponder that he chose to play Red Guardian, which is the Russian counter-part to Captain America, and I assume a sort of Communist equivalent in comic-book-dom to the Red Skull.
Think of any magic show you have ever seen. If you want to see ANYTHING, you have to develop the habit of looking everywhere BUT where your attention is being directed.
Ask yourself, today: what are you not seeing, but should? What questions are not being asked? To whom is attention not being given, and who is actively being hidden?
