Been busy this weekend watching my oldest play #Ultimate with his #DIII college team in Des Moines IA! If they win three games tomorrow, they get to go to Nationals in Seattle. I'm a nervous wreck...these guys only get a few shots at the big dance!

Fast vier Jahre mit der XBOX Series X
Wenn sich das Jahr dem Ende zuneigt und die Tage länger werden, beginnt die Zeit, in der man auf das vergangene Jahr zurückblickt und ein wenig resümiert.

Over the past decade, China has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in its international media network.

The Xinhua News Agency,
China Global Television Network,
China Radio International, and
the China Daily web portal
produce material in multiple languages
and use multiple social-media accounts to amplify it.

This huge investment produces plenty of positive coverage of China
and benign depictions of the authoritarian world more broadly.
Nevertheless, ⭐️Beijing is also aware that news marked “made in China” doesn’t have anything like the influence that local people, using #local #media, would have if they were uttering the same messages.

That, in the regime’s thinking, is the #ultimate #form #of #propaganda:
🔥Get the natives to say it for you.
Train them, persuade them, pay them
—it doesn’t matter;
whatever their motives,
they’ll be more convincing.
Chinese leaders call this tactic “borrowing boats to reach the sea"
