The entire “joke” is that the evil Chinese are spying on you and you should be afraid of them. At this point, I that every TV show over here that gets really popular is obligated to start blasting pure propaganda at the viewer.

    Oh right, I remember that one. That threw me for a loop when I first heard it.

    And there’s also an episode where Rick implies that China pays for the white house or has hands in the U.S. government.

      That Thanksgiving episode was also racist as hell, I think. I’m white so idk how indigenous watchers may have felt, but the whole thing read pretty bad to me.
