To be fair, most liberals don’t understand taxation, ether, which is why neoliberalism lumbers on, the zombie ideology it is.
The boxer rebellion was 50 years before the Chinese Communist Revolution. The CIA’s own unclassified reports show what people in gulags were fed. Why would they choose people at random? That would be dumb. Nazis, kulaks, other prisoners of the revolutionary war, and common criminals were in gulags.
By millions murdered, you don’t mean people who died in the last famine in China after centuries of famines, and you don’t mean the last famine in the region that became the USSR after centuries of famines, right? Famines that happened during or soon after the bloody revolutions overthrowing the tsars and emperors, under which the previous famines occurred?
The history of socialist movements shows that it is. Rosa Luxemburg was right over a hundred years ago.
Ignorant? Do you imagine that we haven’t been exposed to exactly the same imperal core propaganda our entire lives as everyone else here? Generally speaking, we know everything that you know. The only difference is that we took the time & effort—and had the intellectual honesty—to learn more.

And note that I said anywhere in the world
Yes, I heard you the first time.
they’re all cia psyops
Obviously not everything is. This isn’t a a very good straw man.
America is authoritarian doesn’t mean you should trust what their opponents say about their own bad behavior
Obviously not, and yet again you’re putting words in my mouth to construct a ridiculous straw man.
Have fun licking that boot
Have fun licking imperial core boot, I guess? I don’t know how or why you’ve twisted this into boot-lickery.
Less Wrong is 
, as are the effective altruism and longtermism movements. US tech industry oligarchs like Musk, Thiel, and SBF (as you mentioned) are closely associated with these movements. Look into Less Wrong’s Eliezer Yudkowsky. Podcasts Tech Won’t Save Us, This Machine Kills, and Team Human have covered these movements, their movers, and their associated tech billionaires extensively. Some are grifters like SBF, and some are outright fascists like Thiel.
Let me guess, Tiananmen square was a totally justified response to CIA instigated unrest too?
Presumably your understanding of the Tiananmen riots is about as garbage as almost every other Westerner’s.

How about you link to a single source from any reputable news agency anywhere around the world instead of random shady sites that totally aren’t propaganda?
Sorry, I don’t have any MBFC-approved sources for you on hand. I think you’d just ignore them or move the goalposts if I posted them anyway. I doubt you have an understanding of how our own propaganda works.
Anyone who disagrees with me is MAGA!
