Imperialist Genocide Propaganda & Bogeyman China w/ Max Blumenthal
Russia or China: Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the biggest bogeyman of them all? We're talking new Cold Wars and imperialist propaganda with the Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal. Anti-Asian hate crimes rose 150% in major US cities last year; how has the US military’s so-called “Asia pivot” fueled deadly racism at home? How much of China's "human rights abuses" are actually real? Why has the left fallen for the State Department’s hawkish anti-China crusade, and how does this development mirror the run-ups to catastrophic US interventions in places like Libya and Syria? Plus, how did Max become a self-described “left bastard”?
