    Videos by influencers documenting their trips have been widely promoted on Chinese media — if they tell a certain story.

    I mean yes why the fuck would Chinese media promote people shitting on their country lmao. ‘Hey guys, look, this cracker came to visit our country and started spewing racist, sinophobic shit! Awesome!’

      Also, the racist presumption that everyone telling another narrative on China must be some paid actor is insane. Like, they link a vid in the article in which two Australian (I think) vloggers have went to Xinjiang and they say that not once were they ever stopped anywhere in China while they had their camera’s out. Instead of thinking this is just a normal thing, we have to assume they are somehow influence by the CPC. Fucking insanity to live your life like that. Yes, the CPC goes out of their way to promote an obscure YouTube duo with roughly 134k views.
