    Because the source for all of those articles is some CIA backed guy whose stated objective is anti communism and whose sources are all anonymous.

    It’s not journalism. It’s anti China propaganda, designed specifically to muddy conversations about China in Western spheres.

    It’s unfortunate that it works so well. Turns out it’s extremely easy to just pay people to say shit and then pay other people to publish it and then everyone believes it without independent investigation or thought.

    Meanwhile actual genocide is going on in multiple countries around the world, backed by Western companies and Western governments, and nobody is being paid to report on them so nobody talks about them.

      Don’t forget his fringe christofascist views, his frighteningly zealous belief he is literally sent on a mission from God, and the fact he’s been caught countless times just straight up lying in his “research”.
