    The same story circulated in Canadian media about supposed Chinese police stations in Canada a month ago. It’s entirely fake, but when all the mainstream news media as well as elected officials are talking about it, it becomes the truth very quickly.

      Trudeau made a statement condemning China for it before they even confirmed or had strong evidence that it’s real (it’s not). Even the CBC, Canada’s state news outlet, admitted that. I think their words was “parliament are holding off on any actions until the RCMP confirms this is real”, on the article condemning China. Nice.

      Western reporting about China in a nutshell. They “feel like something’s wrong” so China’s obviously the devil.
