        "so you agree that the war in Iraq was a mistake?"
        "Yes"
        "and you agree that the claims of "weapons of mass destruction" were complete propaganda"
        "Mmhm."
        "and you're aware that at the time, 75% of US citizens supported the war?"
        "Yeah, I've seen the 2003 polls"

        "And despite all that, you still accept US propaganda outlets face value that China is a genocidal terrorist state?"
        "Exactly. What's the issue here?"
