He's serious in his own way. At any given time there are a number of Chinese communist netagandists here at FR.
China's secret internet police target critics with web of propaganda Applicants for the job - mostly drawn from the propaganda and police departments - were told they had to understand government policies, know political theory, be politically reliable and understand internet technology. Successful candidates have been offered classes in Marxist theory, propaganda techniques and updates on the development of the internet around the world.
Yes. I came across these netagandists almost ten years ago on usenet and other forums.
I was so happy to find FR way back when because these guys weren't here and if they showed up they were quickly booted. This made actual discussion of issues with people who had knowledge and understanding possible, as opposed to the continual need to simply waste time countering propaganda.
